Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone could give me some advice. I installed a head unit tonight and couldn't seem to get the drivers side speakers to work (unsure if they ever worked though but I was pretty sure they did).

Also I am having problems with my dash light as well, it seems to have died just wondering if the head unit is in any way linked to the dash not lighting up and is there is some type of weird setup for the front speakers.

If you guys have any info on this it would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Aaron :(

youve wired the power to the illumination circuit . prolly find your tail lights arent going either . get a 1.5 volt battery and touch it on the two wires that you think are for said speaker . should hear a click/pop when you connect it

Arrrrhhh yes the tail lights are out.

Thank you.

ok so left speakers were easy but I had H plugged in for a ground (earth) which on the diagram is says not to do. all the Other wises look correct from what a can see on this diagram.

All the wires are different colours for the nissan side but they seem to match up location wise.

PS. having H plugged into earth worked. Is this the illumination cable?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
