Still waiting to pick up my car. It was supposed to be a 6 working day wait for the compliance plate and has been 8 so far!

Ahh man I had this crap with them also. Ended up taking almost 3 weeks for me. Hope it's faster for you.

6 days? Sure he didnt say 6 weeks?

I was told 3 weeks and took 5 or 6. Took longer because of a long weekend. 6 days sounds optimistic especially with easter coming.

It didn't bother me because I had to sell my old car, ended up selling 2 weeks before I picked up the car.

I hope it's not 3 weeks! I haven't paid for the car yet so if he wants this bank cheque it's in his best interest to get it ready..

They told me 6 weeks to get me one from Japan but 6 days to have the one in the yard complied.

I don't NEED it immediately but I'm keen to start fiddling around with it as soon as possible, my new hobby.

If anyone has any ideas on how I can get my money back and out of my contract I will drive over and buy this car immediately???? HELP!

ring him and tell him if he doesnt return your deposit you will dob him into the authorities for complience issues. ie not changing tyres until you called him out on it. Im sure he will not want that coming down on him.

I'd walk away from $1000 to buy Chris's car.

You would have to spend at least another $10,000-$15,000 (I would bet that would be the tip of the iceberg) to have the work done in the manner it has been done to his car.

You are right...I bought Chris's car this afternoon. Picking up tomorrow.

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
