Most rent a car mobs will not rent a car to someone still in high school....

Your best bet is to get some one in your area to drive you and u pay them direct...

yeah bro...i already knew that...u gotta be over 21 to rent a car...

I was gonna get my dad to do it for me.

Ill worry bout that later, I have to find the place first....if it exists.. :)

If i wanted someone to drive me, I would most likely get a limo... ;)

Unfortunatlly most skyline owners arent gonna let you drive their car....

Did a google search for ya and found one place in skdney that rents a GTR 33 but you have to be over 30 to rent it.... Even if you get your dad to rent it you still arent allowed to drive it....

If you do and damage it or get fined... You just bought the car at their asking price...

If you want a skyline id suggest asking for someone to lend you their car... Might help to pop in a location as to where you are.

Personally i would not let anyone i dont know drive mine.... Due to trust reasons...

Also please be aware that most line owners have modified their cars (i myself have over 230rwkw) in the wrong hands it will meet the gutter in seconds....

I know it sucks... But its the facts...

can I please have that website...Thanks

I wasnt intending on borrowing/renting off the skyline drivers...these ppl put alot of effort and work in their cars and they wouldnt want no stranger driving their cars, this is very understandable. This is the reason why Im trying to find a place to rent some type of Jap car.

www.google.com.au

Found it from there.... When i visited Sydney last year i rented a 325i BMW for 4 days.... I signed up as it was like 20 bucks more than a falcon or commodore and i thought for 20 bucks i may as well. Then once i signed i then read the terms and conditions....

$10,000 excess..... OMG

I returned it that afternoon and swaped it over for a falcon whcih had a $1100 excess..... Although i think im a nice driver i was concerned if someone else hit it or it were to be stolen or something.... I didnt have 10g's laying around....

I don't think your going to find many places that let you hire a skyline.. and as for people letting you drive theirs.. don't think that'll happen either.. I don't even let my best mates drive mine.. let alone someone I don't know..

also - won't you be drinking at your formal? why would you want to drive.. don't you want someone to drive you?

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
