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.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
