i did think in advance when i arranged it cause i said to him ill call friday afternoon to let u know if my parts arrived or not

so u know if im still going to come on monday and that was fine. but thats not the point the point was i had no way of knowing

what was going on cause they dont reply to messages often and auspost was a shit fight and sliding has no number to ring them on

which is a real pain in the ass.

so you arranged to call him friday afternoon, but didnt have his number... and then before friday decided to post this bullsh1t thread in the wrong section before you even checked your mail from the day it was supposed to arrive

hopefully you bought those injectors for wank factor because with this kind of intellegence ill be supprised if you don't kill yourself with a decent powered rb25

Never rely on a supplier no matter what they promise rule f**king 101!

If your tight for time then allow an estimated delay. Slide were way off on the eta of delivery to me i was in the same boat but i allowed a few days error on there behalf and it worked out fine. I did start to panic though.

sorry for any inconvenience to sliding performance

A bit late for that.

Late or not, this thread is just wrong and quite frankly I'm f**kin appalled that moderators haven't closed this down considering it has just become a Slide bash fest and also considering he is a trader on here.

Ok, here is what you do.

Go to the calendar. Look at what day it is.

IT'S THURSDAY, CLOWN!

And as for Auspost, I've sent shit to Cairns before and it hasn't arrived for two weeks. Besides, I thought I read in your other panic thread that they sent the via Fast track or whatever. Not Auspost.

Yep....

And my parts got here fine :)

oh and I agree...

Thread should be closed and moved to the BIN!!!!!!!!!

Yeah well if slide didn't f**k people around so much this thread wouldn't be here :)

So how did Slide f**k this guy around?

He paid on Friday which meant it wouldn't have cleared in their account til at least Monday, parts were sent Tuesday and arrived interstate on Thursday.

Sounds pretty good to me.

I understand there are unhappy customers but it's no excuse to take out the trash.

as posted by Elite Racing care to explain how slide f**ked around with this guy???

i bought a clutch from slide money transferred Thursday, cash was cleared Monday goods arrived Thursday. couldn't be happier of the service.

posting a thread about "my parts have not arrived yet so im gonna have a cry to the world" just cause either you havent heard from the seller or the estimated time was longer then you were told will not solve the problem. if your not happy with a sellers service have a chat to a mod as im pretty sure they will be able to help you out better then just having a fat cry on the forums in the WRONG SECTION.

hopefully you bought those injectors for wank factor because with this kind of intellegence ill be supprised if you don't kill yourself with a decent powered rb25

lack of comunication ide have to say. and as i stated he gave me a item number for auspost and auspost didnt have it in there system which made me think wtf is going on here.

but neways im over it i will never buy from a place that has no telephone number again and a place i cant go down the road and say whats going on.

its just to much of a worry. just delete this post "yes" its turned into a slide bash fest but many people have had problems with there items and are just stating

what has happened to them in the past. hopefully slide reads this is realises they need more communication with the customers as many ppl have said they

pm and no replies untill days - weeks later.

This right here, is a ridiculous thread.

Let me clarify up front, I have never purchased from Slide, so I am in no way biased, but seriously, your order hasn't arrived within a mere 48 hours after it is supposedly sent and you immediately believe you have been ripped off and create this thread to cry wolf? Give them a break and wake up to reality. I personally demand a high standard of service with the businesses I deal with however at the same time I understand that they ARE a business, fielding in some cases huge numbers of enquiries daily and despite best efforts its often just not possible to get back to everyone as quickly as they would like.

Had it been 2 weeks with no response and no parts, perhaps I could have understood you being so concerned, but after 2 days, you have not only jumped the gun, but you have made yourself out to look like the fool after your parts arrived on time, and yet you leave behind a thread sledging Sliding Performance, hardly fair.

Furthermore, as others have said, Australia Post are worthless at the best of times and just because they have not entered a registered post item number into their system within a reasonable time, that in no way reflects on Slide. Hell I order parts for my cars from Japan every other week and I could bitch the same way about EMS, I have tried to track EMS parcels and had them arrive on my doorstep before the tracking information has even appeared in the system.

Bottom line, be patient and next time, approach such a situation in a more appropriate way.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      If you haven't bought the ECU yet, I would strongly consider buying a modern ECU. Yes it is very easy to setup and tune, however it is lacking many of the features of a modern ECU. The pro plug in is something like 10 or 12 years old now? Can't remember exactly but it is very dated now. In that time the Elite was released and now we have the Nexus platform.  I would strongly consider not buying the ECU that is 3 generations old now (especially as it isn't a cheap ECU!).

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Sorry I should have been more clear with the previous post.  The block is a sanding block - picture something like this https://motorguard.com/product/motor-guard-bgr161-bgr16-1-rigid-psa-sanding-block-2-5-8-x-16/ The guide coat is the paint It's two separate things I was talking about, there is no "block guide coat".

      Maybe more accurately, you aren't just dulling the existing paint, you are giving the new paint something to 'grab on to'. By sanding the existing paint, you're creating a bunch of pores for the new paint to hook on to.  You can lay new paint over existing paint without sanding it, might last a year or two then sad times. The paint will peal/flake off in huge chunks. By sanding it, the new paint is able to hang onto it and won't flake off.  Depends on the primer you are using. When you buy your paint, as the paint supplier what grit of sand paper to use before you lay down the primer.  Use whatever you like as a guide coat. Pick a colour that really stands out in contrast to the paint. So say your sanding/painting a currently white car, using a black guide coat would work well. You very lightly lay the black guide coat down, then as you sand the car with the large block, all the high spots and low spots will stand out as the black paint is sanded off (or isn't sanded off).  When you buy your paint, hit up your supplier for recommendations for what paint to use for a guide coat if you're unsure what would work well with your setup.
