We (Mercury Motorsport) in no way condone not giving the money back and it is far from a scam! It is a large ticket item that 555kkk has for sale. People get nervous with this kind of cash and I have heard people being robbed for less. The only reason Mercury Motorsport is mentioned in this whole thing is because we are trying to help complete a sale that was between to other parties who obviously can't even sort themselves out.

Well thats one way of paraphrasing my offer to help you get the gearbox in a hurry!

I got a PM from gtr30beast asking for my assistance. I rang him and offered to mediate a solution that would help both parties (I was working under the assumption that Phillip still wanted the gearbox and that Ben still wanted to sell it). I didn't have to ring you and offer to help, but because I know Ben and that nothing sinister is going on I thought I could help out. I even offered to go and pick up the box and send it to Phillip to ensure that he had someone on his side up here (in Brisbane) to complete the sale for him!

From what I can gather, BOTH parties are stressing about being ripped off (kind of ironic!), this has led to some very agro txting, each party doubting the other and then it was doomed from there. There is a peaceful solution and if that means I have to step in and help then that is what I am doing.

I would like to know what the reason is behind the refusal to pick the item up ..sounds pretty dodgy.

Would you let a stranger come to your house and pick up a $12k gearbox? I would be worried about being robbed, or having the place robbed in the not to distant future!

People don't even list their address when selling a car for the exact same reason!

      Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      R34 power steering

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.

      Skid pans in/around Sydney?

      By Kinks · Posted

      I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
