Nicole,

Can you edit your 1st post with a list of people that have volunteered to do this and are confirmed, put next to them the name of the person they are driving (your friends).

Then for all the others that don't have passengers (like me), take pics of thier cars to school and find people without rides.

It would be a shame to have all these cool cars turn up (escort you) with no one in them.

The bigger the convoy the better I say.

I seriously reckon you could get about 20 cars?

Do you have 19 friends? :rofl:

That's exactly right Liam, I'm trying to find out what she is actually doing. Nicole pm'd me asking for me to organise the 5 white skylines like we did for the wedding. Now it's turning into some huge cruise.

Nicole, can you please confirm with us what exactly you are doing. Remember there are other people from the school that will need to attend the formal as well.

  • -Nicole - Black V8 Skyline - John

  • - Tenielle - White R33 Skyline - Liam

  • - Cathrine - White R33 Skyline - Erin

  • - Megan- White R33 Skyline - JL

  • - Rachael- White R33 Skyline - Ben

do you want the partners to ride with us or get seperate skylines?

I'm not sure if 20 people have the same intrests i do, and this is just our formal table, Group, thing.

so with the rest of the people who wanted to come along i thought you guys would just want to show everyone your cars.

Thought... :idea:

How many black skylines can we muster up? If we can get 5 white and 5 black, that would look pretty awesome. One girl in black, one guy in white, one girl in black, one guy in white type of thing, that means you'd have 10 cars pulling in.

My personal opinion of all those cars turning up would be that the convention centre wouldn't be able to handle it for one (I had my formal there and they only allow at the most of 4 cars in at once) and it would take away from the effect of you and your partners and friends getting out of the cars.

My personal opinion only.

Nicole, We've got 5 white skylines already. List as follows:

Erin

Melv

JL

Liam

Ben

.. If you are going in Johns car, that means we currently have 6.

What we maybe could do is do the following order.

White - Melv

Black - John

White - Erin

Black - ?

White - Liam

Black - ?

White - Ben

Black - ?

White - JL

I don't think we would be able to source 4 black skylines, if we can, we can have one person per car. If not, the middle white skyline (Liam if that stays as the order) will have to take a pair, i thought the middle car would be the best because then it's kinda even.

If we can get another 3 black skylines, I reckon that would look awesome. If you are happy with this idea Nicole and would like to run with it, let me know and I'll try and source another 3 black skylines for the night.

Each car (except Melvs) can carry 2 persons in the back seat, if we do the above arrangement in cars it will help with people getting in and out of cars.

I'd also suggest them all being R33's so it keeps the whole thing consistant.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
