You would think someone with such a large company being on car magazines etc and being in the game for longer than others would try and hold some sort of rep with the skyline community which is or should i say was a large majority of your clientele. Guess not! trying to rip off some poor bloke for a few thousand bucks? :D

I know times are tuff! But common mate, you seemed like a fair bloke @ autosalon. But after reading this thread i wouldn't let you touch any of my mates cars with a 10 foot pool. You claim its a guinene s-tune, show us some proof? BTW were not all tossers! :banana:

I swear, I have never been more entertained then I have tonight, firstly this thread has to be the best ever, and the other was Luckiee getting banned in another thread....

GTR-PWR good on you for questioning him and doing your research before buying a GTR. What a rat, I can't believe this dickhead is still in business.

Alright, so everyone is saying its not an S Tune, thats fine - its just that he is so adamant that the engine is a S Tune since it has the 'S' on the block number. The engine cover looks standard so I think he is full of BS too, or just misinformed.

Whatever the case this is all good info and will help me bargain down the price. I will get the front of the car checked out for previous accidents and he says that he will install the stock steering wheel with airbag. Also it will come with the stock airbox which means it should be defect free.

It has heaps of nismo parts but they seem to be just bolt-ons.

When I get a definitive result from someone who has FASTED the VIN and Engine No I will print this out and show him as proof.(He is just misinformed I assume). This should help give me some bargaining power during negotiations.

p.s at least we know its a genuine V-SPEC and that its colour is a genuine midnight purple.

ok we have all settled down a bit now ! this guy hasnt GTR PWR hasnt even seen this car and was asking for the price to suit his needs well below a R32 gtr car price ,he said he had crashed his current car and was looking to find another car but just couldnt come up with the rest , he asked for this car at 8 grand short of the price offered , please understand while i now was avoided this guy as his is a time waster , id rather spend it with my wife than talking to some idoit that cannot afford a v -spec R33 gtr and had a budget of a R32 gtr its a v- spec r 33 ovoiusly most people can assure a R33 and being a v- spec in the not so common colour purple is a rare colour as you dont see much around and is the colour to find for a serious buyer , this car came from Japan with all the equipment fitted and options ,as the advert states it has a different engine than the one fitted when sold new so thats why NISSAN FAST cannot pick up that it had a engine change , i do run a work shop in melb west called OH performance and have worked on over hundreds of gtr s and seen many good examples of these cars in my life

Jim you are a blatantly lying and you didnt want to meet up becuase you knew I had exposed your attempt to rip off honest people.

Everything you say is worthless, and your businesses reputation now lays in ruins.

Needless to say all of the above is false and irritates me so much because all I wanted was to buy quickly and hassle free. After all this, you still refuse to apologise for how you treated me, and continue to make false accusations.

Honestly Jim, you have a lot to learn about business and how to treat people. You falsely advertised this vehicle and I have actually contacted the ACCC and reported you. I have kept all of your abusive and misleading messages sent from you as well. These will be passed on and supplied as evidence of your shady tactics to the ACCC.

Also this story and post has been reported to A Current Affair, hopefully the whole of Australia will see your shady business tactics.

Thanks mate, yeah I am just so grateful for this online community.

It has saved me on numerous occasions, and easily saved me thousands of dollars.

and too think all this could have been avoided if some proof of the claims had have been produced ie paper work reciets of the so called engine ect ect . i would reckon a fair bit of his clientelle would be thru internet forums ...........not now tho poor show i reckon

had this bloke just advertised it as a normal 1995 V-spec gtr.... and maybe even thrown a std. airbag steering wheel back in it...

not to mention not trying to spin bullshit, he would have probably sold it by now and retained what ever reputation he once had!

i just LOL every time i read this thread... obviously jim hasn't got a clue about business and customer relations...

hopefully not many noobs will get ripped off by this shonky business... and there would be quiet a few noobs that would fall for the "its a nismo engine broo ulehh"

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
