you make sure that the cheque clears and you have full copies of drivers license and 6 points of I.D

Too many local cars get ripped off with very good fake cheques and matching i.d's.

Thanks for the heads up Stevie... I didn't know that.

Will be very careful checking ID's etc, and will photocopy licence on that note, however given its a bank cheque (which I will take into a branch while the guy is still here) I'm feeling confident that it'll be ok.

i thought bank cheques are as good as cash because they debit the funds straight from your account when you go to get a bank cheque

Not always true.. Hand written cheques can fall thro..

fake cheques can have printed writing.. aint mean there real. if that makes sense.

Old boss got ripped off by a fake cheque.. well nearly.. it was for 32,000 he picked up the dodgyness before the car was gone.

Yeah, I'll be sure to check things over VERY carefully.

That said, the guy is trusting me to have the car I say I have (which of course I do), and after talking to him ofen enough now I'm pretty sure he is not going to do anything like that.

I'll be talking it straight to a bank anyhow - so I'll know pretty quick :)

MY new car will be revealed once it arrives :thumbsup:

This time the power goals are more moddest :D

Hey all,

Car went on Saturday, nice guy bought it and drove it to Brissy, so its gone gone :D

Would like to have seen it stay local, but I'm pretty happy it'll spend some time on the beach :P

Oh, also, not even a hint of payment dramas. Cheque was real, payed blah blah, so all good.

good to hear.

I know one car that was sold interstate and the new owners had fake i.d's they had a fake bank cheque that was so good the bank even cleared it and the money was credited to the blokes acount and 2 weeks later the bank called him and said they had to have a meeting. The bank had picked up the cheque as a very good fake two weeks after accepting it... The car was gone. So was the money... Insurance for both the bank and the car didnt want anything to do with it...

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
