See that in bold? I've been charged at some magical rate for only those 2 days compared to the rest! And when I say magical, I mean... stupid.

Called today, got through to a Aussie (hooray) but... got told "those charges must be legit!" YET he couldn't even tell me at what rate/why I've been charged extreme amounts for those 2 days! It was normal internet usage just like all the other days - not in roaming, etc.

Everything else EXCEPT those 2 days has been rolled into my data caps.

Now it's been raised with the Billing Investigations Team. Sounds fancy but lets hope they know how to do their job.

Edit: and yeah, blah blah blah this is a car forum... but we're all family here.

id be quite happy for him to defend the looked after CA's, after all, he has a mean one that would eat alot of RB25's.

and a highly modified RB25 will eat alot of RB26 and a highly modified RB26 will eat alot of Ferraris....

[D_Stirls]

Sorry, I'm always skeptical of things like this. There are no details on it, and it could be anyone's.

Got a print out detailing your car?

That's alright the people that need to know, know the validity. There are no details about my car anywhere online. There is a build thread on NS but it hasn't got any plate/VIN numbers on it and that is the way it'll be staying. Besides the details in the box that I have edited out are entered when you put the car on the dyno anyway so they shouldn't be taken as gospel anyway.

And so on and so forth ...

I see, and agree with, your point.

yeah your right vu, but for the sake of defending the CA, im saying that they aren't shit engines, the guy behind the wheel over their 18 year life makes them a shit engine, combined with not changing fluids every 5000-10000k's for the last *at least* 5 years.

Anyone going to the geelong airshow ?

FA18 super hornets flying over at mach1. half the speed they can go.

Hear Hear

And here's some more proof;

[PREISS]

I dont mind CAs.

BUT. think about howmuch you have to spend just to get it up to RB25s power levels. Also how much you are pushing the engine,

Add as much as you want. IMO id rather a RB thats pushing good power without massive mods.

Rims have ruined a half-decent GTR...

But that's WAY to cheap... apart from the body work, I'd dare say the engine is in need of some repair...

my money is on a shagged motor, that thing was for sale by its last owner around a month or so ago, now its back up again so soon.... and atleast 5k cheaper.... seems fishy

Hell for that price, you'd have a few coin left over to fix up the engine.

I agree the rims are

Buyer beware
