hi

i got a bit of a noob question i guess. ive been lucky enough recently to acquire an original a13 jack and all the tools, including the wheel stoppers.

ive had a look thru the boot and cant work out how or where the jack is meant to sit. there looks like some sort of mouting area on the right of the boot which sits near the wheel arch... is this for the jack? if it is, how do u mount it?

is there a dedicated place for the wheel stoppers?

thanks for any help

cheers

Not too sure with the Ceffies man, but that area you described sounds right, its a big area with nothing to occupy it so it'd have to be it.

In this thread, I attatched a pic of how my Maxima holds the jack...this may be different in the Ceffy/R34s, etc. Have a good read and a look at that pic.

Should make sense :P

My cefiro had the factory jack and wheel chocks.

On the right hand side of the boot, the jack sits in there (can't remember if you wedge it in, or if you put it in place and wind the jack open to hold it secure). The wheel chocks then just sit down the side of the jack.

im starting to think that maybe the stuff i bought of yahoo japan auctions isnt actually stock a31 gear... maybe its for an a32. i cant fit the jack in anyway, the mount for it weird... ill take a pic a and post it up, see what u guys think

My mum has an A33 or A34, the wheel sits flush with the floor in the boot, carpet goes over the top, but the jack and tools still sit off to the driver's side, and A32 onwards are all pretty much identical, the A3x chassis only changes when it becomes A35+ (US) and J31+ (Everywhere else).

Otherwise just put it inside your spare wheel maybe.

Same as my c33, jack goes in the right hand side of the boot upside down with the mounting point that grabs the chasis sitting in a north south position with the jack winder facing the taillights. The two orange wheel stoppers sit on top of the jack in a back to front 7 shape with the teeth going in first on the left hand side of the jack. Wind the jack up and the wheel stoppers will press up against the lip that is meant to catch it.

    • 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
