Well Austrai and Australia are right next to each other in the droplist and believe it or not Austria also has 4 digit postcodes..Its not until the parcel gets to Austria that someone looks at the actual street address and realizes its in the wrong place. And considering 3 or more language changes have been done by then I would say yes its probably suite an easy mistake to make..

Also ETD or ESTIMATED TIME OF DELIVERY is exactly that, estimated. There is not many guarantees with the postal system only insurances..trucks crash, boats sink and planes fall out of the sky..

Look you are free to get on the internet and slander his business if you are not happy..But in doing so you also leave yourself open to the readers discression of whether or not your complaints are justified and I am not convinced yet that they are I'm sorry..

I for one received a great service and a quick look at his store tells me nearly 3000 others have as well..Its true nearly 1% have been dissatisfied, but one you take honest mistakes and troublemakers out of the equation it appears to me a good service is to be expected from them..

There is a difference between delayed postage and delaying postage. My problem was with the latter. I paid as soon as i clicked by now, i waited patiently for 2 weeks to see or recieve a tracking note as i was told in the product description and also the 2 weeks was the ETD. After this period i emailed them asking where it was, i was then told "sorry for the wait" here is the tracking number it will leave this afternoon and be there in 3 days.

It left there 3 days after he said it would and took another 7 days to arrive.

So is that it getting delayed in the post? Or them not sending it in time? I think neutral feedback was justified in this case as they took a long ass time to send it once they had recieved my money and now im being "blackmailed" into changing it to positive or else im blocked? Seems to me poor business practice.

True, and it's your decision.

I don't know why ebay sellers expect 100% positive feedback these days, no business practice is perfect. There are always a few mess-ups, and its how they are dealt with that makes you a good business imo.

Ok I can see how that is perceived as a bit childish on kandos behalf..

Unfortunately though to publicly give someone not good feedback then continue to do business with them and expect a good result is somewhat naive..

I just checked out his recent feedback... It seems that most people give feedback saying that delivery is really fast and a very few slightly delayed.

I have a funny feeling that delivery that is delayed is because items are advertised while not being in stock and have to be made. He most likely just needs some better stock control/monitoring and control systems put in place.

Probably good advice for anyone keen on purchasing to send him a message or email (and if you email he will probably give you a better price) to check availability and postage before you buy rather than relying on ebays generic postage times.

I did this, waited 2 weeks and never got a reply as I didn't want anti surge, gave up waiting and got one of ebay anyway.

For anyone interested I'm getting closer to fruition with my setup. Will be ordering the 20G soon (again unless Jez convinces me otherwise)

Block has been bored, honed, decked. Matched to pistons.

86.5mm CP pistons purchased

Oil pump checked and OK

Tomei Poncams 256/256 for non vct ordered and on their way

BC single springs and Ti retainers ordered and on their way

Need to send crank away and match bearings (local builder so no biggie)

Head will be sent for a quick secret squirrel once the springs and retainers come back (locally again, they drop off and pick up for me so all good)

Need to buy an S14 VRS kit, new balancer, ARP head studs and cometic or similar HG - Anyone know the best place to source these locally?

Once the above items are on I'll be getting Mick_O down to fab me some sexy pipes and were off n racing.

use your words very carefully, i am not slandering someone's business, this is what happened.

3000 other people, minus the people who were too afraid to put neutral feedback in case of re-precautions, let a lone people who did put it and were then threatened.

either way, that is not the point, i received a neutral experience due to poor service, yet apparently i'm the one in the wrong for reflecting it within the feedback system which is designed for this exact reason?

I don't see how the seller is responsible for delivery times, even DHL express 1-3 day shipping is only to our shore, not including domestic shipping.

because it's not the delivery that's delayed, they aren't getting sent off until weeks after the purchase, personally mine was sent of about 2 weeks after i bought it, the only reason i chased it up was i was quoted a fairly liberal time frame as is, and i waited until a few days after the latest estimated date, chased it up, and was told it would be sent off the next day...

remember, this was not an issue until he blackmailed me, those defending him need to remember, he was a business trying to blackmail a customer from giving accurate feedback, anyone who defends this practise should be ashamed.

yes like i said it is naive to expect good business after giving him Bad/neutral feedback...

as a general rule if I am not happy with services received and wish to leave bad feedback.. I say nothing until I am damn sure that transaction is complete and i have no need to contact them again....

Im not saying its right, its just the way the ebay system is..

If you truely think you are wronged maybe you should contact ebay with your problem and see what they say..I'd be very interested to see what they say..He has afterall offered a warranty and is obliged to honour that regardless of the feedback you give..

good idea ^^^or just get the ATR43 and off you go...

Its Quick and easy, the sooner its done the less you spend the sooner your driving and the more money you have left for all the types you will need..You've been procrastinating for over a year now, think of all the awesome track time you have missed out on

What injectors you got?

Your crappy cooling pro isn't gunna cope well with the power a T67 will pump out..

      Hello, Newbie, anyone know my 32's history?

      By Leigh_Mack · Posted

      Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!

      2020 Nissan Skyline 400R V37/Infiniti Q50 RS insurance in NSW

      By sonicii · Posted

      As far as I know, Infiniti stopped importing vehicles before 2020, even though they were still selling their stock for at least a year or 2 after that, they were older build years, therefore, you can import a 2020 400R, because you couldn't buy an AuDM 2020 built Q50 RS. As for insurance, you might need to go through one of the enthusiast insurance companies, they tend to insure a lot more grey import models than the mainstream insurers as Duncan mentioned.

      Question about R34 GTT A/T Solenoids

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
