gud stuff dan, u found a front lip

its seems most ceffy's have that big gap between the front bar and the side indicators on the stock bars. think there must be a metal adapter plate that bolts onto the front guard and front bar to lift it up

this should be useful if peep's are looking into bolt on flares

had a lip for awhile, recent changes were chrome grill and 17x9.5 +15 cst's all round.

considering leaving the 'VN exec' look for blue bumpers and weathersheilds (if i can find some)

Oh and the gap, my car isnt in the best nick, body and panel wise and the bar is cable-tied on, haha

Edited by works 510

There are brackets or small tabs that hold up the bumper on each corner not to mention small long rods on either side, low down that connects to the bumper to give it a bit of rigidity.

We would...if we were the original owners. After swapping so many owners and collisions damage them it becomes increasingly difficult to find an A31 with them.

Now thinking about it, it's probably a good measure (in addition to other stuff of course) to determine how abused a car is.

yeah the actual workmanship of that ute is really good , i don't mind the ute prt , it was all the r33 bits that killed it for me . A31 bars are easy to get lined up under the parker light , you just have to spend a little time with yer cable ties :)

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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.
