Just got off the phone with him today, he said he's in Melbourne and the only way to buy parts is to pay him via bank deposit, then once he receives the money, he will send out the parts via courier which are currently at his mate's house in Wollongong

On another note, i'm wondering if anyone has received their parts via a courier, or received parts in general? PM me or post here

Cheers

that's very strange i've been calling him quite a bit and have no returned calls

I just called arlos. he hung up the phone as soon as I said it was me. then the phones been turned off when I tried calling back.

I think i've officially been dogged =[

I suggest anyone else interested only deal with this guy in person.

i'd anyone has info on this guy please share.

please call me on 0424253000 or send ur number through i call u and we will organise a reasonable price that suits both of us lunky u i still have front guards and whole rear sub frame availble.

Hey mate, Tried calling today but phone switched off. Can you give me a call on 0411 644 970. If i miss it just send through a sms and i'll get back to you asap.

i called thismorning and carlos told me he is in melbourne and the part i wanted was in sydney.

i offered to make payment through paypal - not an option. also appears COD was not an option.

i also offered a few hundred bux (yes, a few HUNDRED) more than his asking price IF i could pick up and pay cash, and i'd give the cash directly to his mate. he advised this was not an option and that payment could only be made via direct deposit and then the part would be couriered to me by his mate in 3 - 5 days.

carlos if you change your mind and if it helps, i'm happy to clear up the confusion everyone seems to have here and as per my offer - pick up the part + pay the cash, and then put a note back on here about how we go?? :)

cheers.

it took alot for me to say NO to his 'second' set of R34 GTR rims with 70% tread for $1000, seeing i want a set so ****ing bad

but when a deal just seems too good to be true, most of the time it is.

thanks mods for confirming it.

He says the 2nd set of GTR rims are located in Wollongong at a mates house, and that the couriers are actually his mates

What i want to know is where he sources the parts from, someone who spoke to him said he was dogged on compliance with his R34 GTR, so why is it that parts are located in Wollongong and where does he source the extra sets of goods from.

I don't mean to offend your integrity Carlos, but you offer no protection for the customers who want to buy your kit, even the basics like Paypal or COD, you have to understand the logic behind people just transferring the funds with no assurance or guarantee of receiving their goods

I'd be willing to buy the rims simply providing you get your mate to send some pics, i'd be willing to deposit the postage in your account first, then when the goods arrive, i will deposit the remaining balance into your account

Cheers,

Danny

I dealt with Carlos within the first few days but i did it face to face which didnt seem like an issue back then ...

However if further complaints arise and parts are not being received ... i am able to assist moderators with supplying Carlos's home address .. or rather, the house at which i met Carlos [which had the r34 gtr in the backyard]

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
