If they didn't get a roadworthy done when you bought it, the car would not have had a legit safety cert, and therefore it was illegal to sell or advertise for sale.

Just to expand on that, a car can be sold without a safety certicicate but must be sold unregistered as-is. Obviously if they are trying to sort out that issue now, then they are very dodgy and sold it illegaly. Possibly try to get Qld Transport onto them, as they could be up for some big fines.

I spoke to qld transport they dont no how it was registered. then said it was registered and thats that

Dude get in there and start bustin heads. I agree with what has been said already. The absentee has either broken or wrecked it and they are trying to cover the fact.

My god this is very scary to hear....i guess doing the backgroud work before buying really helps....any hope you get it back...and its obviously the guy is not on holiday. he must have had a small altercation with the car....and try to fix up ASAP...

Can you Plz...PM me the place....Just wanted to know...so i can keep well away....and WORD of Mouth PEOPLE....make sure not another liner goes near !!!!..

You have just scared the hell out of me, I dropped my car off to the dealer today to fix some issues that should not have passed roadworthy. Luckily my dealer isn't in springwood, Looks like I will be keeping alot of contact with them to find out whats going on with my car.

please pm me the details I maybe able to help as I have a family member working for QLD transport. Other than that demand car by monday or money back as that is completly unacceptable.

If the car is a dodgey maybe thats just what they want her to do. :laugh:

sad to hear that amy.. humm whats the name of the yard or the addy if u could PM me that i shall keep a eye out for the car with those wheels and kit on as they might even change the plates + sticker .. sounds like they are playing with you .. i hope this gets sorted out for u

Firstlly;

That blows so bad, I have not seem something like this in a long time. I feel really bad for you and hope your venting on us helps.

Secondlly;

"Today Tonight" or "A Current Affair" will track it down for free...

I'd report it stolen anyway hey, go down there with the police report or whatever. That should fire them up a bit to get it back. Then work at ways to get the placed closed down or something until your car is recovered.

Not good tho. Deadset next car I buy its going to be new. And Im going to be down the docks when it rocks up.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
