Brad is not going to man up and take responsibility he will keep stuffing everyone around and doing what he wants. if anyone affected wants to know more send me a pm and i will be happy to talk about my dealings with Brad.

  • 3 weeks later...

Still owes me cash .. Lots

Blokes like myself and boz had verbal agreements ( brad always did a good "cash price "

so a lot of leeway )

I recently scrapped my r31 shell , turns out 4 years of brad's 'work' rendered it shit (anyone who wants to seek brads work I have heaps of pricks of the state he left my car in)

Always happy to chat with anyone who is considering anything to do with this special person

Brad has matched the shitkuntery of just china, I will continue to tell anyone I deal with my experience

That would require action on the part of the victims, which to be honest seems a little lacking here. Aside from whinging and throwing hands up in the air.

I know I'm rustling some feathers suggesting this, but have any of you REALLY pursued this? It's a rhetorical question, lower your pitchforks.

Part of the reason this all blew up is I spoke out after doing a heap of digging, making calls, constantly applying pressure, etc. Did I say constant? I meant constant. Let me say constant a few more times.

I realise some of you are busy, your time is worth more than the lost parts/money, etc, and for those people, you'll just have to accept that you're never going to see the parts or money with the occasional passive aggressive email/text/call/SAU post. Hell, even regular contact and quite obviously pissed was not enough to get him to give me my goods. It was daily harassment in the end, sometimes multiple times, that got me my parts.

Some of you need to spend more time focusing on him and less time worrying about if anyone else has got their stuff/money. You're not going to get anywhere that way.

I really feel for you guys, some of you are out of pocket a lot more than I was and have been for a lot longer time, but you will never get anywhere with it without a SUBSTANTIAL effort on your part. Brad has proven himself countless times, you know what you're dealing with and that should tell you how hard you're going to have to work. So either dig in and commit to it (like I did because it was a matter of principle) or forget about it, chalk it up to the risks of online trading and move on - and do as Fatz does and tell EVERYONE you know to stay away.

Thieving scumbag deserves jail time.

This.

Amazing the thief has been getting away with this for such a long time …I have seen other people getting touched up over much less.

Sincerely hope the guys who have lost a lot of money can recover their cash/parts.

So is now a good time to show some of my work ;)

Sucks to hear of so many people being ripped. Being in the fab business, it definitely isn't easy to make a good quality product and there aren't many people out there that take there that are prepared to spend the money for a quality job and even less which take the time, pride and care to do so and that is why so many people come and go.

Unfortunately people have to learn from others mistakes, but it will happen again because people forget in a few years and then someone else comes along and does the same thing....it happens since there is a constant supply of willing customers coming into the scene, innocent first timers, thinking they can build a car from behind a keyboard.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
