Hello and thanks for your interest in my car,

touched the ground, no hidden defects and it is as advertised.I'm the owner with the

title in hand and the transaction can be completed quickly. You will receive all the papers

and documentation, the clear title and the certificate of origin and all the bills and

invoices.The car is sent to a local warehouse, here in Moreton, Queensland and from here it

will be shipped from.I am located in Madrid,Spain for business and i will be back in Moreton

in two weeks so i will handle the transaction from here.A deposit of $2500 is requiered to

buy my car and reserve it for you.The full price is $10000 . I will only close the deal

through eBay for our own protection. Your funds will be 100% insured by eBay and I

ive asked for his bank account details ..see if i get a name :(

yeh i wanna see these guys get scammed. ask them for there details so u can deposit the money, then clean em out lol or, go one better.... hunt the f*ck down, introduce him to aggrivated assault.... not that i condone violence in any way, this is not the right course of action, just one of many unfortunate possibilities... :(

i must say it does help to have access to the australian electoral commission roll :(

Good to see the privacy act at work and government data protection handled by anyone.

I feel glad I'm not on it.

on topic: Jake try using the 411 scams technique of conning them into send you money or sending you pictures with OWNED BY SAU or something on it haha

lol.. ahh, these ones.. been around for ages.

There was a thread on another forum of possible ways to rescam the scammers, which I thought was pretty cool.

Post it on here mate? Dodgy ebay scamers usually they're on the other side of the world, ebay cant do jack about it anyway so screw the ebay protection. Sad thing is usually people still falls for this, A Vspec for 10k fark yeah give me 3 :( .

heres the latest..

Hi there mate,

For making the transfer of $ 2500 you must find a WesternUnion office and transfer the

CASH (not credit card or checks) at my payment address.If you don't know one, I'll

search it for you. After making the payment you'll need to send me the transfer details,

meaning the following:

-sender's full name and address

-money transfer control number (MTCN) which they will give you

Here's my PAYMENT address:

NAME-- David Nemiroff

ADRESS: Calle Pirineos 53 Madrid, 28040

Spain

I will wait your email after you make the deposit with transfer details and i hope that we

will close this deal soon.

Best Regards,

David

i`m just curious as to how many people would fall for this ..must be some otherwise why would it happen

Good to see the privacy act at work and government data protection handled by anyone.

Are you aware, anybody can look at the electoral role.

Just have to walk in to any electoral office and sit in front of the computer, it's all there for all to see.

Where do you think us PI's start looking?

It's only the hard ones that get away.

Scams can't be helped, but we on another yahoo group have just one way of approaching ebay and that is NEVER bid more than your prepared to loose, as it's a big chance you will loose it, especially dealing international.

Cheers, D

coz some people are low and have nothign better to do tracid.

this kind of shit also makes it hard for people who actually are decent sellers on ebay as it in turn gives the site a bad name coz people get conned by tools like this guy, and never go back on again.

unfortuanetly the people that do get sprung by this shit cant be helped coz the buyer protection program wont cover shit like western union transfers ( which is why they choose to use that method of payment, coz they know they cant get sprung ). sucks.

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
