Sorry to hear about this, the circumstances certainly do not add up.

But I notice you only joined up after it happened.

Too bad you did not get on here when you were only thinking about getting a Skyline and possibly get some good advice before buying.

We have to get the word out to more potential Skyline owners somehow via some free media exposure of a positive kind :wave:

Something like the Bikies doing the Kids Toy Run etc.

- That must be the reason they can ride around making 120db from the exhaust and you never see them pulled over.

i heard about the bostcruising site and went on a cruise with them it was good bu never knew there was one on skylines..

The vehicle would have already been chopped and scattered by now.

More than likely (not pointing fingers and that)

but seems to me like an inside job......hey but could be ligit too

have the police been notified?...have you paid for this yet?

Hope they get caught and get a prison sentence...

Good luck finding them

Here are some recent pics of it after a polish..

Those pics are outside OH Performance, it is right next door to Nisma.

I'm assuming your importer was a guy named "Jamie"?

If so, get him to give you a replacement car (assuming they don't find yours.) he has a few....

Also, why has it got plates? :S

Yeah he gets the car complied there apparently what are oh performance like? the bloke who imports them is damien williams.. Yeah if i don't get the money then i get that blue nismo GTR in the workshop there apparently getting worked on supposed to be ready by 6th of august you should check it out and fill me in on the details? :yes:

Yeah with the servo tape the police looked at it but i am not sure if they made any copys of it and it was on friday so they might of recorded over it i will have to get hold of bp in mcintyre road and ask the cops might have it not sure.. I just think it was really bad luck on his part but he knows he has to hold his own on this contract so he is dropping off this R32 gts-t to drive till he gets this other gtr ready for my by the 6th of august or give me the full amount of money back..

Just be careful when signing anything.. Make sure that this R32 GTS-T that he is delivering isnt in fact the GTR you're waiting for legally. ie. dont sign anything that says that you have received a car!!!

this is all so very suss, if i were you i would be being a lot more aggresive towards this westy shmuck, get s letter from a solicitor with your demands, also threatening a full police investigation, you can also report people to the ATO which i'm sure wouldn't be appreciated, this guy is obviously a wheeler/dealer, and deserves to be stopped, please make it so he is forced to come and empty my wheely bin every monday.

please make it so he is forced to come and empty my wheely bin every monday.

thats comical gold!

any way. good luck with all this mess mate, hope things turn out for the best.

you have my condolences.

cheers. james.

ps: i would even personally go for a cruise to sunshine if i could and do some detective work for you but my circumstances dont allow me to. sorry (unlicenced).

Hmm, this does sound very sus - i live right near OH Performance & Nisma and drive past regularly and always see "James'" (Owner of OH Performance i believe) workshop full of cars inside and out. My cousin worked at Nisma and i know theres been tension between the two shops - havn't heard anything good about James (& the company).....I'm not sure if i ever seen your GT-R out the front/inside of OH though - that blue one has been on sale for quite a while i believe, as i went past there in Jan asking a few questions.

I wouldn't trust them, personally.

Hope everything works out ok for you- I'll keep an eye out in the area.

Yeah a blue gtr for sale he said he would give me that one in replace for mine is it a nismo one or something?

Just do avoid any bias, Nisma and OH are the same thing. The only reason they don't like each other is because they are right next to each other. Simple. Neither is better than the other. Both seem dodgey to me anyways for some reason.

Is there a blue gtr for sale out the front of oh performance place i am supposed to have that one?

Just think for a second; Why has the blue GTR been on sale for so long?

Every tom, dick and harry would stop and look at a blue 32GTR, that is for sale, so if it was in any sort of decent condition it would have been sold a loooong time ago. Don't get fooled by his bullshit, get YOUR car or get the money back and go to a trusted importer.

You still haven't answered why he didn't replace a $75 dollar battery while he completed all those mods for you.

haha.

I'm going to check out that blue GTR just out of curiosity!

Will let u guys know how I go.....

Guys. This is not a "lets start rumours thread"

This is NOT NS.com where you can bag a business or start rumours when you feel like it.

Keep it on topic or i will suspend all your accounts.

If you have info, post up. If not, dont post. Simple

cheers

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
