If anyone knows of this person, dont even bother dealing with him cos after he gets the money you wont hear from him again. I lost out through ebay on $110 which isnt much but its the principle of it. Won the item end of June, paid in July, and reported it to ebay earlier this month. Apparently he is from the Seaford area but i cant confirm. his seller id was 123_jase but its been deactivated. Just a heads up for everyone to watch out for the low life degenerate theif.

Yeah, that's the thing... call me traditional, but can't touch it and see it in person - buying over the internet is, to some degree, still risky.

However, using Paypal is good - it does give you added security as everything is done through Ebay's third-party preferred Paypal.

You can call Ebay now, so I would call them up and seek assistance.

paypal are the biggest scammers known to mankind. no thanks, i'd rather rub honey on my genitals and sit on top of an anthill than deal with paypal.

sorry to hear you got scammed G - i agree with spunky_monkey - i too try not to buy anything online, if i cant touch it, then i dont buy it....rarely anyway...unless its a reputable online store (e.g just jap)

Every dodgy transaction I have had through paypal has been refunded almost straight away when buying from ebay...not many however.

Pay Pal stink!

I bought a used mechanical part (HKS branded) on Ebay using Pay Pal, good arrived, the PART fail to work, i logged my claim.............emails forward and back.........Seller rang me up from OVERSEA with abusive languages......Seller left abusive message on the logde centre in writing. At the end......

Pay Pal asked me to send the Part to HKS to have it certify that its malfuntion, i told them its a joke and don't worry about it.

Was this seller's feedback rating really low?

How did you pay?

Ebay can be a bit dodgy when it comes to getting your money back or making a complaint, paypal is better but its still owned by ebay anyway...

paypal are jerks, brought a $250 item, not only didn;t the seller send it, but he had a false home number and address so i couldn't get in contact with him other then email (which he never replied anyway). i claimed, paypal found it in his favour and i lost out...and 250s a lot for a full time student...

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
