Just make sure you work out if that is a good option mitch.....i am pretty sure there would be a great demand for parts if they are going at the right price.....good luck mate

When can I ask for a refund?

You have a right to seek a refund if the goods you bought:

• are faulty

• are unfit for their purpose (they don’t do what they

are supposed to do)

• do not match the description or sample you

were shown

• have defects that were not obvious or were not

brought to your attention when you bought them.

You do not have a right to seek a refund if you:

• simply change your mind

• buy the wrong item

• fi nd the goods cheaper at another store

• use the goods in a way that they were not made for

• caused the goods to become damaged.

However, you may still be entitled to seek a refund

under a store policy, warranty or guarantee.

Seeking a refund

To seek a refund you:

• should return the goods in a reasonable time

after buying them and you must not lose, destroy

or damage them

• may be asked to provide proof of purchase—

the best way to do this is to show your store receipt

or credit card or bank statement which shows details

of the purchase.

You have the right to seek a refund irrespective of

whether you have proof of purchase. In practice, however,

it is easier for you to seek a refund if proof of purchase

can be supplied to the retailer, supplier or manufacturer.

It depends on where he bought the engine from though, if it privite sale it's buyer beware.

bout 10:30 til 12:30ish. Spotted Dan, Luke, Vu and Nathan there as well

haha, so you left about the same time i did.

it apparently died pretty solid about 2am, with most of upstairs closed not too long after.

so, that noise is still there with stock wheels fitted. slightly annoying. will get the guys at morpowa to check it out when i have it dyno'd on wednesday.

jack up the car on that side, support it tight...with the wheel on rock it from the top back towards you, does it click ? if not try to rock it from side to side, does it knock a bit ?

loose wheel bearings, worn out ?

loose tie rods, worn out ?

sway bar loose or bushings worn ?

loose wheel or mis tightened ?

loose shock tower on top or bottom ?

loose dog bone bolts on the calipers ?

the wrong lug nuts, not coned the right way for the wheels ?

hit the wheel with a kick or rubber hammer, do you hear rattles, loose brake pads, shims ?

all pretty common on nissans, could be a worn gear on the steering rack as well ? but not so likely

hope that helps dave

lol i got that a couple of days ago,

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
