yep, exactly. And I posted why it was being deleted in the thread before I deleted it - don't you get instant email notification of replies?

Please use the 'wanted to buy' thread. If someone made a new thread every time they wanted to buy something, the forum would consist of nothing but. I let the occasional urgent one stay, but your thread didn't fit that criteria.

Probably right Carl....I just don't get the time to do the necessary research for new businesses & change of addresses.

If you feel like giving it a go, I'll unlock the thread for you for a short period

I have been VERY lenient on this in the past, but will start to warn and then ban people if this continues.

Also, it is not kosher to join the site and the same day start flogging your wares. We would much rather you be a part of the Skyline community, come on cruises, be a part of it all, and then use this community to sell your items - rather than you not being around whatsoever, the join the site just to flog your wares. It is not cool at all, and most other forums you require 100 posts to sell anything at all, so we are being very fair.

What is wrong with this? Extra parts for sale is great for us who are looking for a great deal! Isn't the more second hand stuff for sale the better?

I don't really see the issue.

Are you talking specifically about people joining up just to sell stuff?

The answer is simple - we (and you) have no way to vet scammers and people who do the wrong thing. On Ebay you have buyer histories and more importantly payment protection (to some extent) from Paypal. We have a new feedback system on SAU (which obviously did not exist when this thread was created), which offers some history on people, but of course it is buyer beware. You would not believe the number of scams that get reported to us of SAU users being ripped off - and not surprisingly it is almost always new users to SAU doing the scamming, and obviously SAU (and the buyer) have no real recourse.

By advising people to only buy from people that have been around on SAU for a while, have contributed to the community in some way (and even better if they have a positive feedback rating), is only prudent I would have thought.

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
