condition is pretty good, there are some specs of white around the top of it. looks a bit like some paint or something to me, but i dont want to try to get them off as i might ruin the steering wheel with the wrong chemicals etc.

They're nothing major though. overall it's pretty good but there is a bit of normal wear.

I'll try to get photos asap.

  • 3 weeks later...

I wouldn't be dealing with this bloke, he offered me the S/wheel for $130 and then he changed his mind because someone offered him $150.

How can you believe him as to the condition of it? He just says normal wear and puts up a dodgy pic that you cant see anything.

Here is a copy of the email he send me :

Hi Julian ,

i'll do it for $130 including postage.

thanks for posting mate. like i told u there were other people interested. i did say $130 including postage, but at the same time i had someone else say he'll pay more. there was communications going back and forth between a few potential buyers. he actually told me he'd pay more before u agreed to take it for $130. I do encourage inspection of the steering wheel before purchase also. i have described it to the best of my ability, and put the best pictures i could up for people to see. unfortunately the digital camera i have isnt working so i cant put more detailed ones up.

I appreciate you're criticism, and i'm more than happy to continue with pm's if u like. but this is a for sale add, and i plan on keeping it one.

Thanks Jerry. Sorry mate.

Like i told you in our conversation i don't like time wasters and i don't like to be mucked around dude.

Thats why i put this on here for others to see the kind of bloke they are dealing with, you promise one thing and you do another. You describe it very vaguely and put up a useless pic . It is obvious to me that you are a guy that won't stick to your word . Your word is not even worth $20, if i said i'll pay $160, i'm sure you will tell the other guy he can't have it. Sorry dude i don't operate like that, if you do then it's your business but the rest of us should know, thats the reason i'm posting this. i DONT WANT YOUR STEERING WHEEL.

Even if you offered it to me for $50 now i wouldn't buy it dude.

Good luck with the sale ....

Hey mate, I just had a look at the emails and pm's, and I'll come out

and admit I was wrong. You did accept the offer before he wrote me that

pm offering more and I didn't realise that. Being the case, you can

have

the steering wheel for $130 including postage like I said. I pm'd the

other guy apologising for the screw up and told him I'll give you

preference. If you don't trust the condition I'm going to a friends

house tonight and i'll try to get some good quality pics. I'm not out

to

be dodgy or screw anyone over, I just didn't realise you had accepted

it

before I got the other offer. Apologies for the screw up.

Let me know,

Julian

What happen Julian ? Did the other guy reject it? Well like i said even if you want to give it to me, I DONT WANT IT. I'm not dealing with you, i thought you was a little sus thats why i was going to get someone in Melbourne to buy it for me! I didn't trust you in the first place and looks like my feeling was correct unfortunantly.

Feel free to sell it to whoever you want, if anyone can trust you .

julian is not a bad bloke, and if someone offers him more, well if he agreed to sell it to you for less. and then someone else offered him more, then yes thas a bit dog, but if you didnt put a deposit or full payment down, then theres not alot you can do

as for julian though, he wont mess you around to who ever actually puts payment down

Mate i've sold heaps of things through forums in the past and this is the first time anything bad has come from it. i came out and openly apologised as i realised i did screw up and the offer was accepted before the other guy made me his offer. I simply made a mistake and was under the wrong impression. And to answer ur question... no the other guy didn't reject it, and i got another 2 pm's from people wanting to take it, so all you've ended up doing is bumping my thread and creating more interest. Thanks Jerry! :D Good luck finding ur steering wheel.

Cool dude, i may have been a little harsh on you but you are new to this forum. I accept your apologies and i wish you luck with the sale but i think you can unerstand my point .. As for me finding a wheel, don't worry there is plenty around and heaps in Japan if i cant find a suitable one here.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
