Contact ebay and tell them the full story...

Have heard of this happening before and ebay basiclly investigates and bans them from using their username and if they do it again and again they block the users permentlly (to sell you need to put down a credit card or a home address.) Either way report it to ebay....

what if the car is not in workin order or has faults or other problems??

worth checkin car in person, before biddin on an item..

Have you paid the amount already??

But contact ebay on your situation tho..

ouch 21 grand for that? $13,500 is probably closer to what it's worth. I saw an auction for this same car end a couple of hours ago, and it finished at $16,500 or something like that, with the reserve met.

Yeah, it's a legally binding contract. But if his details are dodgy, it won't matter. And when you consider how easy it is to create accounts on eBay and bank accounts with false details, it's a real jungle out there...

If I was buying something like a car, I would want the address where the car is for inspection and registry check before anything else. I've had a few poor encounters with eBay members myself, including still waiting on a high flow cat from a certain seller...

Just remembered with car sales on ebay...

They dont have to sell the car at all if;

1. Its sold out of a yard

2. Its advertised in newspapers

3. It has a private deposit on it

4. The sellers make up one of the above 3 reasons...

Anyways you report it to ebay and ebay contact him and he says i own a car yard and someone has come in and out a deposit on this car therefore he cannot sell it and thats the end of it.... However you must complain cause if he keeps doing it then he will be get banned.

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
