Someone beat you to it but I think they're still in denial.

Cars with no De-reg papers etc and there are people still sticking up for the scum...

Boils my blood!

I really should open up a restaurant or something, cut corners and when people get sick or I get shut down by the Dept. of health, I'll just put on the forums/facebook that the food was there on consignment.

Edited by me_larr

Anyone notice it was a Rex that got wound?

Most unlikely to be an import. I wonder if their BS excuses that "it got done in japan, not under my control" make it hard for the prosecutors?

Wasn't there someone trying the validity of de-reg certs in the courts?

Last reply on EvoOz copy and pasted..

But further reading on FB someone said this

I heard about the car in question, it was there on consigment and joe got f**ked over for it, and copt the blame. Wasnt a car he brought in

That's good. Their done and dusted :D

Monetary compensation appears minimal though

The person who took Honda to court for the 3.5L burning oil only received $1000 for his 'time and effort' even after Honda 'fudged' their oil consumption 'tests' which was also proven in court.

So sick of these people getting a slap on the wrist.

$3670 is diddley squat

However hopefully this haunts and follows them in what ever business endeavours they do next.

On 19 June 2014 Ms Xeneli’s motor vehicle dealers licence was cancelled and she was disqualified from the industry for four years. Her new company's licence, for Japanese Imports, was also cancelled.

Motor vehicle repairers and motor dealers licences for Zeneli Pty Ltd, which is now in liquidation, have been cancelled and the company has been permanently disqualified.

The company’s current director, Joseph Dib, has also been disqualified for four years.

Consignment mishandling has brought a few dealers undone I believe.

They would have made enough GP to cover all those fines from the sale of about 3 cars. Ridiculous.

Couldn't find the EvoOz post either.

I have heard that another dealer is about to be done....

Thanks.

Well to see this industry cleaned up will be a blessing; not to mention the preservation of the values of our investments!

That was me that posted that and it wasn't being blind it was me not wanting to flame them without having all the info and I never actually said I believed the quote I found on Facebook I simply said that I also saw someone had said that and later said it was what I read but who knows if it is true or not

Now having read more it seems they were dodgy and I have responded further to that thread on EvoOz showing that info.

Let's hope we can get dodgy bastards like this out of the industry for good. I bought my evo 8 from sports auto group before I knew better and after hearing some of the bad stories about them I was pretty lucky with mine as mine is in really good condition both body and mechanically wise

    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
    • Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
