hey guys,

i recently bought a R34 sedan & on checking out the car, i noticed the car jack & tool kit were missing!

So the dealer kindly gave me the jack & tool set, however we had no idea where the jack & tool kit belonged! The dealer gave me tools from a coupe he had in his yard, however the position where he removed the jacks & tools were different to the sedan!

could u guys let me know where the jack & tool kit is placed in ur 34 sedans?

cheers much appreciated! :rofl:

p.s. done a massive search b4 posting this, found nothing on jack placements in 34 sedans~! :)

Where did you try already?

Usually on the sides of the boot, take off the lining, and there is a gap in the wall of it, there will be 2 tower looking things to expand the jack to brace onto

I dont actually know about my Ceffy, but it is like that in my Maxima.

Want a photo?

yes photos wud b awesome! :rofl:

Here ya go, again, this is how my Maxima does it, dunno about R34s.

My jack goes there, and the tools inside the spare wheel, which sits face up inside the well, I dunno if R34s have a well underneath the carpet, or if they lodge in the side ?? Maybe the jack is meant to just sit loose inside the spare ?

Just pull all of the lining out and have a look, gotta be there somewhere.

thanx for that Nic!

i dont think the 34 has a compartment like that....

my jack looks like urs, but i got a feeling the 34 jacks look different as there is this metal contrapment near the spare tyre, but cant be fit with the jack i have.... :laugh:

really appreciate ur photos though :)

same problem with mine mate. Had the jack but no tool kit. From what i can tell the tool kit must sit with the spare tyre? My jack fits in there with the space saver kinda winds up into a bracket close to the back of the car. As for the tool kit show me a pic of it and i'll have stab at where it goes?

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
