The thing is most of the people who buy from these places are unsuspecting people and more-often-than-not are not aware of their rights, actions they can take, etc, etc. So as a result - they tend to be taken advantaged of.

I'm merely generalising and not trying to offend :)

Case in point. This guy who apparently did "no research" and looked at "zero" cars and purchased this white 1 from Ed Lees

Sinno, just curious as to how you got the actual km travelled of the Edward Lees car? i am really tempted to comment on that youtube video to warn any potential buyers. this sort of thing really grinds my gears

Currently searching for a white vspec II and saw this one pop up this morning on carsales.

Judging by location the photos were taken, appears to be from Sports Auto Group (Although shop logo has been blurred?).

I'm only suspecting, previous front end hit? Bonnet does not appear to line up and painted radiator support?

Curious if anyone is able to provide any insight?

Thanks.

Just an FYI - dealers aren't allowed to have any signage whatsoever in the pictures that go on CarSales that indicates where the car is located. It's classified as marketing and a dealers agreement with Carsales/Autogate can be at risk for it since they aren't paying for the marketing just the advert.

But yeah shit that bonnet looks like it's popped, they'd wanna be selling it dirt cheap when it looks like that..

    • Meh, At 60 years old, I have been doing dumb stuff for much longer than you mate, I am the true King And unfortunately I cannot be a maroon, as I am not brownish red As for not getting ITB's, the plenum intake will apparently show typical gains across the board and increase induction noise a bit, but, have all over less dort than ITB's Cost difference for the extra ITB dorts was significant though, the total parts for the plenum set up is "around" $2kAUD plus shipping, the ITB's were $4kAUD plus shipping, I was contemplating really hard about paying the extra $2k for all of the dorts, but weirdly, some form of common sense, from listening to the platform experts prevailed  As for the NA mod hate by some, I've had a few boosted cars, with all their inherent issues, I'm now looking at simplicity and legalities for a street car, maybe I'm just getting old, and I'm quite happy to spend some of the kids inheritance, 5kw at a time 🤣 And think of all the money I'll be saving on consumables that something with boost needs, like engines, gearboxes, diffs, clutches,  tilt trays... etc. etc. etc. 🤪
    • Haha.  I wouldn't say I am either but I've definitely been around it plenty.  I'm guessing you know the dial in is basically to make a handicap to level the playing field between racers.  The car with the slower dial in goes first and in theory if they run their dial in time and the faster car also does then they cross the finish time if they also have exactly the same reaction time - if you go faster than the dial in them you lose, but if you are too slow there's a good chance the other person will get to the finish line first. I'm normally supporting other cars but they were all pretty dialled and were egging me on to race as well, here's one of the cars I tune (Starlet) which ran within like 1 hundredth of its dial in through the competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inEBu-d9Gn4&t=69s
    • Where ever the fuel reg gets it reference is what I use to T into for map reference been a very long time so where it goes to plenum/runners I have no idea but never had issues. 
    • What ecu? Same shop every time? Same ambient temperature? If timing is correct then pull plugs and see if lean or rich. Dyno can also read different if they have changed ramp rate or not set tacho/speed properly  
    • I've never done dial in's just straight up, whatever that's called. I'm far from a drag (racing ) expert.
