maximumrpm has every right to be panic, im trying to ease it.

I am saying its not worth for OSCAR32 to rip some1 off for such little amount. (checked his profile, not some noob just joined).

with postage it came to $110...no ones going to give you that money for free mate...and like others have said, he could rip others for larger amounts in the future

What parts did you buy off him? And you're saying he's been ignoring you since?

He hasnt been active since the 15th of this month, Im still awaiting a reply to my question.

Sometimes people are delayed ligitimately.

Sometimes they are not.

I am on this case for you.

This happened once before but there was a legitimate reason in the end.

Also, from what I and a few other people know of him, he is a pretty decent bloke.

Ok this situation is now sorted.

I rang Oscar as to my knowledge he is a very decent bloke and wouldn't try to rip anyone off.

He has assured me that there is a legitimate reason for all of this which he can tell you all if he likes.

You will have your parts in the next couple of days or a refund if you so desire.

Sending you a pm now.

For the record, Abo Bob didn't do anything as such (no pressure, just information swapping) I do appreciate getting a call before being bagged out these forums. MY LAPTOP WAS STOLEN - along with a lot of other stuff, IM WAITING ON INSURANCE.

I have NOT been here, although my account is saved on this and another couple of computers right now - possibly this is why you think I've been here.

So, maximum - thanks for the call - you had my number and chose not to use it. I give it to anyone who buys from me.

I'm a payed up member, have been to heaps of events and am NOT into riping anyone off. Why shit where you sleep huh? The freight for those parts were huge compared to what I thought (like over triple - $120) (as I wrapped them very well - per your request - in custom poly). The quote and the cost were different BECAUSE OF THE WRAPPING - ended up being mesured in size - not weight.

So, to save YOU money I got a mate to drive them to Sydney and drop them at a courier - to keep your price down. I know it was delayed - however my last few weeks have NOT been a lot of fun. My brother was killed in November, and I'm dealing with a lot of family issues right now on top. Thats no excuse, but your parts were on their way.

I can stop them today - and will be, and refund your cash. Given the way I was treated by you (public bagging straight up) I'd rather refund your money as these parts were VERY cheap - and sell them to someone else. I WAS TRYING TO SAVE YOU MONEY MAXIMUM!

A simple call or message and you would have known. I didn't have your number - and still don't.

So, please given me your account details for your refund. I'm no longer interested in dealing with you given your tatics. Thats it - no discussion. Its easy to bag people on the net, at home on your couch.

Cheer to those who know me and know I'm not some cheap ass scammer.

cheers mate your a legend...hope to receive the parts this week

Refund as soon as I get some bank details - no parts buddy. I will insure I check the net each day for them. Thanks Abo Bob for bringing this to my attention.

    • Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?
    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild. 
    • Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great. 
    • Running rich in conditions where it shouldn't probably won't do great things for catalytic converter lifespan. I would fix that sooner than later.
    • Yes, important point. Watch the Motive videos with Herman thickness testing the bores and deck. You do not want to push the unlucky (thin) block as hard as you can push the average block.
