Very dodgy Ebay auction. Check this out!


Recommended Posts

someone has probably already said this on the thread but here goes -

don't email this person - because they are probably trawling for email addresses and will either use them themselves or on-sell them to spammers ----- :headshot: :

So - BTW - anybody that has emailed - has your spam increased???

Basically that he could do just that. I'm sure the cops, ebay and the mebers of this forum would love to meet them.  

I would cut and paste it but my girlfriend has deleted it and it probably wasn't quite as polite as that :D

haha

Since he recons the car was in Germany i told him by friend was in Germany for the next 2 months and to give me the address where it is so he can check it for me before i bid on it, and i slipped in that my friend was German and a distant relative of Hitler and i could get the car from Germany to Australia by Helicopter through his connections. He still wanted a deposit for me to see it :D

dam scammers is all i can say *refraining the profanity*

I really feel sorry for anyone who is caught being scammed. My work nearly bought computer software from some **** spam email, said the web site looked all professional and legit. Yeh... thats because it was a bloody graphic template purchased for $200 and some matchstick men on the other side. I think the saying of "It's too good to be true" is usually just that, not true at all, things are always priced at what they are for a reason, stolen, fake, ebay scam... wateva. It's a shame that people see something priced so low and purchase thinking "bargin".

Scams like that GTR for $15,000 blow the mind... with laughter that is...

It's a shame sniffing a scam can’t be taught standard at school... hahah

    • Greetings to you all, It's an honour to be part of the great forum. I’m happy to learn and build good  relationships with members of this community. Thanks for having me!    
    • normally i don't like to get involed with these kinds of self promotions stuff, but good on you for living your dream man.
    • Remember our cars are 30+ years old so expect the rubber bits to leak. I'd go around your engine bay with a can of "start ya bastard" or similar and look for leaks. FYI I got my car 10+ years ago with the standard boost restrictor in place, I removed it when I got it and the car never had any issues since (besices a leaking manifold gasket). tl;dr- Look for leaks before proceeding.
    • That SSR is actually the same (or similar) as the Jaycar 100AMP SSR (which I use). They suggest the resistor to stop the SSR turning on when the ECU turns off (I believe). I personally don't use the resistor as I use the 5V output from the ECU to supply power to the SSR. I do however run a flyback diode, the old Haltech documentation was wrong too and didn't specify the fly back, I mentioned it to a few of their staff and they eventually added it in.
    • I did manage to do this without removing the engine or front cross member, but I had the advantage that the exhaust manifold was removed. I am not setup to support the engine from the top or remove it. 1. Loosen the engine mount nuts so they only have a nut of thread. If it is a manual, I think you have to remove the gearbox to engine support brackets. 2. Jack up the engine off the bottom idler mount. Jack it up till the end of the slot and nut on the mount. You need this clearance to get the pan out at the rear of the engine. 3.Break the sealant seal to sump. I found a oil pan separator tool helpful to get it started. 4. The oil pick up can be removed with the gap available.  5. The oil pan can be removed now. 6. Before assembling, do not apply sealant to the oil pick up area as your hand will rub it all off but apply to the other three and a bit sides. 7. It is a two man job to put the oil pan back, with the sealant, as you do not want it to touch anything and rub off. 8. With one person supporting the oil pan the other can fit the oil pickup 9. Apply the remaining sealant. This would be more difficult with the manifold or turbo in place, but I think it could be done. As you can see my sealant is a bit ugly, but good enough to seal. 10. Lift the sump up to the engine and bolt it on. We found it was easier to use two long guide bolts at each end to get it nice and aligned without touching.
