Hey guys,

I'm sure some of you are aware of the crappy plastic that nissan decided to use for the Gear stick, radio and A/C surround (well for R34's anyway). When in heat it gets all sticky and usually marks very easily, well my gear stick surround is in terrible shape and i would like to change it and whilst I'm at it i want to change all the surround around my AC and Radio unit. I checked Just Jap and i used Google and i have used the search function in SAU and i cant find anything (and i swear i have been told by someone that you can buy interior stuff like this off just jap :( ) - Im not after second hand, Im after after market stuff that is new, I'm not particular a fan of the carbon fibre look unless you go all out but at the moment Im happy with anything.

Thanx for any help guys.

hey dude.

You can do many things like stip off the old paint by bathing it in metho and then paint in the colour of your choice. I did gear surround the same colour as the 34gtr and the rest like AC panel in matt black, it matches better then the factory grey.

Search in the cosmetic section 'shitty interior paint' or the likes to find a whole thread.

Or PM 'Charles89' he is selling 3m carbon fiber vinyl so u can do the whole carbon look much cheaper then buyin carbon stuff.

Here are two pics. the first is my surround (crappy pic but u get the idea) and the 2nd is one that charles did on his 34.

Hope that helps.

David

I went for the metho removal of the sticky rubbish and sprayed the lot black from the gear surround up to the tripple gauge cluster. Its abit of mucking around but its worth it. Do it once properly and you can forget about 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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      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/
