Hey,

I am wondering if anyone would know where the best place is to hire a formal car for my year 10 formal, I am in sydney and looking for something classy and hot.

Any suggestions and hire recomendations would be more than welcome!

Also anyone with something nice offering a service will be considered and wont get paid to shabby! :)

Thanks guys.

Not sure, what do you think is reasonable?

Would invole picking me up, then my girl, predrinks, then to the formal, doing something nice.. after dropping us :) then picking us up and taking us to the after party. - sound right?

Something VERY modified sounds nice :( Im listening.

Black GTR34 would be great :D What other cars?

Thanks, Mark. :)

lol that's what i was thinkin... only problem... the skylines u'r thinkin of are 2 door... which means u'r gonna look wierd hoppin out the back of one. (U dun wanna arrive at the formal in the passenger seat and u're date in the backseat)... if all else fails jus hire a limo like the rest of em.

There's a company that allows you to hire exotic cars, but I'm guessin u can't drive unless an oldie is there with u.

Ah true, not enough room for 2 passengers in the back?

Xeaon, do you really want a 21 yr old spunk skyline owner to know where your date lives? :D j/k its a mad idea, wish I thought of it for my formal instead of gettin a 6 seater limo with 2 otha mates n our dates.

Hey why don't you get a convoy thing happening and get all your mates dropped off in em too :P

be careful, by asking for a fee you guys are entering into a contract, which increases the duty of care/liability owed on your behalf (not to mention could be illegal, doubt anybody would hold a limo license?)

so if there's an accident and something bad happens, its not just 'oh yea i was just giving them a lift....' it is far far worse than that...

something to think about

R33 - Ah thanks, pm about what info?

funkymonkey - Hehe I was thinking about that, I have another few friends looking for cars also. But atm I want to be the only one with the skyline :D

ultim8DTM5 - True, but wouldn't we just be classed as passengers in a accident?

No offers or any suggestions (url?) yet :)

fatz - Slab of? Hmm what car have you got? Pictures?

and if i loose my car for 3 month you have to supply one for me hehahahhhahah
- Haha no way :D

Thanks guys.

    • 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       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
