C.O.D is a stuff around and it can be very expensive. Obviously it is a safer way but you still dont know what is in the box until you pay to take it. Best to buy from members with more than 100 posts and check their history.

Anyone guy to watch out for from here is Melv.

Sold my mate a pair of tyre saying they were near new when in fact they were 5/6 yr old.. Two tyre places told us that the rubber had hardened and can not be fitted. He refuses to pay back any money.

Also he ripped off another person from here called Mines. Apparently he bought his GTR through Mines, to this day he still hasnt paid the full amount.

So yes.. watch out for Melv

If it's the melv i think he didn't buy his GTR locally... it was imported... He never seemed like the sort of guy to stuff people round...

Yes, mines helped him import the car into australia.

I sold him some headlights. He asked me about melv and if i knew him. I told him how melv ripped off my mate and he told me how melv still owes him money for the car he imported into aust for him.

If anyone would like proof im sure if you pm mines, im sure he is more then happy to tell you. Also im more then happy to forward the messages replies from then PMs i sent him.

likley story buddy, the wheels were practily brand new. and before your friend took them he looked over both wheels for 15min with a spot light !!!!!!!!!!

if u speek to mines ask him where my r34 n1 engine is also ask him where my cusco front diff is oh yeh and why not ask him where are my racing front pipes mmmm all of the above was promised when i took delivery of my car.

i wanted my money back but he wouldnt reply to any of those questions.

u want more info ? mines was using over 5 user names on here running a busness, dont u have to apply to sell stuff as a company on these forms ?

i try my best to be helpful and there is always someone trying to bring you down.

i personly changed and made over 40 SAU stickers for us qld'ers free to help the club out.

i won a fuel pump at the dyno comp hosted by mase and gave it back to help found this forums there.

i get f**ked around from the guy who sold me my car but i never mentioned a bad thing about him till just then ^^^^^ i still consider him a friend as he is in the group of ppl i hang out with now and then from another local trader.

o well i can only try ay.

near new? PFFT..

2 tyre shops told us that the model of tyre is about 5/6yrs old. Both tried to fit the tyre and both couldn’t get the pressure to hold. My friend is not a tyre specialist. Looking at the tyre with a spotlight doesn’t exactly reveal small cracks that form after the rubber hardens.

For you to turn around and tell us to contact the guy who sold you the tyres, is a load of sh*t. So what you are telling me is, if I buy a second-hand car and something goes wrong at the start, then I should go to the person who originally owned the car and not the guy who sold me the car?

For mines, I have only heard what he told me n now from what u told me. But u can’t tell me, from what I have experienced from you is exactly good. Sorry, but I would take mines words over yours.

I had asked a few ppl about u before I told my friend to buy the tyres. Word of mouth about you had been good until you screwed my friend.

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄

      Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.
