I had a similar experience with ANOTHER seller that held me out for three moths on a paid for HKS Tubular Exhaust.

I suspect he sold it to someone else as well and then had to find another one to supply me with which took him some time.

I did eventually get it, so I hope that you get your goods soon as well.

Hang in there... he may have personal circumstances causing the problem, no excuse not to contact you, but my seller did the same to me, but came through in the end.

Thats bullcrap man! Il be so pissed off too. paying $550 for an item and had to wait and doesnt even heard from the seller for 3 months! WTF!! that is just Bullcrap. Man i feel for ya!

I had a similar experience too. Having people saying that his out of state, saying that he doesnt have time to jump online(well they were his mates ofcorse). Guess wat! he was online not long ago!!!!!

I done some research on the guy and he is one of the biggest scammer on car sites! Alot of people is looking for him.

well anyways. these kind of people should be cleaned up!

I did some searching too, to try and find out the full story and I couldn't even find the for sale thread with said coilovers in it, well, not one that said they were sold.

I'm not trying to stick up for the seller at all and I do feel for the buyer but at the same time there is a right and wrong way to do things and it's looking more and more like they have both done the wrong thing. I would be pissed about it too don't get me wrong and 3 months is a long time to wait and from the looks of it the OP has already tried to buy another set of coilovers from another seller and that was nowhere near 3 months ago.

???? I dont know phantom32 personally but im gonna buy some parts off him 2nite, he's gonna give me a buzz later on. Were doing a simple cash swap for the things im buying.

he's been sick lately which is what he told me - just spoke to him 5minutes ago on the mobile, he's in the eastern suburbs; seems like a pretty straight forward guy, i mean if he was dodgy, he would have asked me to deposit money into his bank account.

anyways, i can ask him about anyones transactions with him when i meet him tonight - maybe clear the air a bit

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way.

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
