i do detailing and driving for AVIS car rental, i used to work for defence though haha, so if your there on weekends and need a quick car wash let me know :D look for one of the guys driving around in a red shirt with a yellow reflector vest :D

i often see a white r33 go past hertz/budget/thrifty area but not sure if theyre on here. also spot a black 33, think his name on here was aurora but when i spoke to him he was a bit of a rude snob so i left him alone :D

so does someone go thru the interior before it gets to you, after the car gets returned?

just wondering about lost property thats all.. I've had a bad experience!! (not with Avis)

with most of the rental compnies its the detailers that drive the cars back to the wash then do the interior so if somethings gone missing they would be the ones who found it. then theyre are supposed to bag and tag it so it gets sent up to the counter inside the terminal. if the company has dodgy counter staff then they might be to blame for things going missing, its their job to call the customer but if they see a bag labeled ipod or something then they can "accidentally" not call the customer i guess.

avis also has drivers on sometimes who drive the cars down from the drop off bays to the wash so they can pocket things aswell... not cool :( because the detailers are the last ones in the cars before they sent out on rent again they the common blame target...

thanks mang, that's kinda what i thought

does the man who walks around and takes your keys at the airport carpark ever look through the inside?

I'm just annoyed cos I dropped the car off on a Friday night and rang them on Saturday morning and they told me the car was hired out again and there was nothing they could do.

it pisses you off when you feel that they havent even made an attempt to find it for you :teehee:

ah i forgot about him, the rover who collects the keys and checks in the cars some days. he has the keys first when hes working so he can go through them. its pretty dodgy the lost property system. i just hate how the easiest one to blame is always the detailer and the others dont own up. its stupid

Just got a call from the mechanic saying that the loss of boost was caused by the fan touching the intercooler pipe... :P

Now im worried :(

Had to drive out there to explain to him how that's not possible, should have just taken my car back then...

No he wasn't that great, just got it back then.

He's come to the conclusion that my whole fuel system needs to be upgraded, even though I have a stock gts-t with intercooler, and the problem started immediately after I fitted the intercooler.

Oh well, I'll call trojan tomorrow.

Hey Rick444 I'm with you re gettin out of that workshop .... but I am interested, does the intercooler on a stock 33 make a big difference? I'm not racing, drifting, draging etc - but am interested, is it a worthwhile thing to do?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
