Im currently trying to sell my 33 and i am getting sick and tired of all these people ringing up and asking for my address without even trying to build a pretense about wanting to buy it. how stupid do you think i am. If someone calls and asks 1 have you still got the car and 2 whats the address. alarm bells are ringing mate. Is anyone else out there copping this? coz i'll tell you right now. you better have some balls and a bullet proof vest if you think youre gonna come round to my place and rip my car off. I have 2 unfriendly rottys, a shooters license and a martial weapons collection. TRY IT.

sorry people, but im sure im not the only one and i wanna hear if theres other people out there having this happen? if this is happening to you or people you know post and spread some awareness before peoples rides start going missing while they're selling their car.

ive test driven cars and the owner has said i could take it bymyslef but i always insist they come incase of any unforseen events. also i think they should do it for theyre own sake ! :)

Same here. Even doing it with car 2nd hand dealerships, and such. I'd prefer if the salesman came along.

i just give out the address..

maybe you will get lucky and you can make a claim for the stolen car..

much less hassle than going through the barrage of questions people usually have.

I am selling a ford fricken laser and get hassled about its history bigtime..

its a fricken factory serviced fully log booked car...get over it.

Crime is Rife (almost touted as a japanese yakuza slogan...kekeke)... we gotta just deal with it. I hope no one tries to rip your car off... and i hope you sell it soon..

oi maybe just say... "this is my address....if you get lost just listen for the 2 rottys barkin"

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
