Does anyone know a Daren Vine (I'm assuming this is his real name)?

He's taken $1405 off me and not provided me with Ohlins suspension. Ignoring all emails and SMS and calls.

If anyone knows him. Tell him to pay my refund or give me the goods ... to my door in person!!! Before I take my own action.

He appears to have his own R33 (silver).

I reckon he's bought the suspension off a jap auction site using my money and f**ked off with it. Tracking down which State he's from. Any further help and info is appreciated. I have his bank details and other info and I'm going to start legal action this week.

Last chance buddy, if you're a member here, stop ripping people off.

:thumbsup:

PM me with any and all info. Reward offered.

That sucks bud. I reckon that's probably not his skyline either..

Prob not, but might as well pitch it out there.

I'll have enough info to go after him shortly, but every little bit helps.

:thumbsup:

yeah if he's ignoring you.. put your item as "Not Recieved" and if through paypal start a dispute.. if you got some of his info then that's good.. then print off a copy of the transfer showing your bank account and the money transfer to his bank account.. go the police and get them on his ass..

If he's ignored you i would give him shit anyway.. get the refund so he's left with suspension he don't need.. or does he?? And if he's "away on busniss" tell him to get f**ked anyways cause he should be giving you notice

gl hope it works out

Haha vigalante styles...

I had a dispute about a non recieved item, went through paypal, took a while but paypal refunded me in the end, whole process works pretty well in my opinion.

Or you could rock up on his doorstep and beat him over the head with a macpherson strut...up to you

Don't you read feedback??? Have you contacted anyone else that has left bad feedback for this guy, maybe they have info on him. that is a large amount of money to be direct depositing into someone else's account. I can't believe that this guy is still trading under an account with such bad feedback, you think he would open up a fresh one, don't f*ck around just go straight to the police...

There is a link that is setup for this kind of stuff, i will post it up when i can find it...

When I dealt with him, his feedback was like 94% ... then it plummeted downhill after I dealt with him. :P

I've also tried contacting the other people who've been burnt by him, but not getting much response yet.

Not the first time he's been in trouble ...

Shonky motor dealer dealt an $8300 fine A South Brisbane man found guilty of unlicensed motor dealing and five counts of false misrepresentation involving odometer readings has been fined $8300 and faces 110 days prison if he fails to pay.

Fair Trading Minister Margaret Keech said Darryn Anthony Irvine sold at least 13 vehicles worth more than $87,000 while operating as the person in charge of his father's Underwood Dealership, Freeway Autogroup.

"Irvine has never held a motor dealer's licence or sales certificate despite dealing with customers and selling vehicles," Mrs Keech said.

"Irvine's actions were clear breaches of both the Property Agents and Motor Dealers Act 2000 and the Fair Trading Act 1989.

"In June last year he was also fined $300 for acting as an unregistered motor salesperson.

"The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) keeps a constant eye on the motor dealing industry, with a view to weeding out unlicensed dealers who tarnish its reputation and put Queenslanders' lives at risk."

All dealers selling used cars in Queensland must be licensed by OFT and have their licence clearly displayed at their place of business.

Anyone suspicious of the legitimacy of a dealer's licence can check licensing details on the OFT's public register.

Anyone wanting more advice on buying used cars can request a free copy of the Glovebox Guide by phoning 1300 658 030 or visiting www.fairtrading.qld.gov.au.

Pay Pal is really useless!

Don't bag paypal unless you have tried getting a refund through them. I got scammed 2 months ago for $110 on Ebay through a supposedly reputable seller. Got sick of this delaying tactics and lodged a dispute through paypal...followed their process and got my $ back after about a month.

Check out their refund policy...pretty sure if the seller has a 94% rating you are entitled to a full refund.

    • Shove more foam in it as a minimum if you possibly can. Or steel wool (not the stuff with soap on it!) Baffles / getting the oil out of the air is huge, and should be done at both the cam cover, and the catch can.   I'm about to do a power steering reservoir, and even that needs some thought to make sure air is separated from the oil, to stop evil Cavitation. I'll probably look at doing my own catchcan later on too.
    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
