Maybe so but its 7 grand down the drain, dont think we're not going to fight tooth and nail over this, I just checked the last email he sent me and it contains:

"It is still registered and roadworthy but yes the pink slip I have from getting it registerd last will come with the car."

How do you think I stand on this now?

Rust like that would not spring up overnight. I would lawyer up and get them to ivestigate it. Considering it's probably a dodgy road worthy

Well cars written off, I might write a thread up somewhere and link to it, anywhere I can buy just a clean chassis for cheap? Otherwise I might have a court case on my hands.

First ever skyline and only had it since Saturday, great introduction.

I'll check the workshop on the weekend n see if we've got anyone who wants to sell a non running registerable chassis.

If I were you, I'd cut your losses and buy a good car, then part out the one you have.

Oh definitely, I have already been told to chase after the previous workshops who did the roadworthies, but if the seller doesn't want to give it up I dont think I have much of a leg to stand on to chase them.

Edit: Sounds great I'd appreciate that funky, problem is we have nowhere to store the car for now so this car sits in the driveway because its unregistered while dad's car sits out on the street, don't have the time to part it out unfortunately.

Private sale, sold with Rego but no roadworthy, if he doesn't give us a refund we will be taking him to court as he has already broken the law without a roadworthy, deceiving us on top of that, it was imported by him two years ago and now the chassis is riddled with rust, he lives in NSW which has yearly inspections, how does something like this not get picked up on, also considering taking the place he got a roadworthy at to court, thoughts?

not meaning to stereotype, but I know at least 3 leb workshops in syd that can give you a pink slip for the right price without even looking at the car.

that said, if I turned around and sold a car with their dodgy roady, and they got caught out for it, they'd come see me personally with baseball bats.

Try tellin the bloke you bought it off that you're gonna dob in the workshop, most times he'll be good mates with the guy who issued the roady, and if the workshop doesn't wanna lose their license to issue roady's and a hefty fine, then they'll convince the guy who sold you the car to offer a full refund. if you get what I mean.

its a shame that australian law is buyer beware.. you have a case but for 7g which is in some terms alot of money its not enough to fight it through court or get ya face caved in by some dodgy mechanic.

Don't think a mechanics gonna travel interstate, if he wants to bring it then bring it. I'm only young and this is all my savings gone, may be young and dumb but I will fight for it no matter what. We will fight tooth and nail until the court gives up on us, we have a case, we just have to prove it.

Haha hasn't died on me yet just waiting it will hold out for another 12 months as I have an engineering mate building up a controlling system for the dyno.

He is converting his old vane to his system with an eddy current retarder and his desinged system will be a mix of dyno dynamics and mainline os.

All is looking good tho

    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
