Guy who used to go by AJHudson on another board, used to drive or still does drive an R33, white and a GTS-T I think.

I am getting his old email address soon and will post that but does anyone recognise that nickname and can get him to contact me or give me an email address/mobile????

Name: Andrew Hudson

Email1: [email protected]

Email2: [email protected]

I can't get responses from either email, all of this info is from paypal but the transactions took place over the time they will investigate for.

Try doing a search, just type the user name in.

I tryed & there is nothing there, u might be spelling it wrong

DD Phil on car audio australia knows him to some extent he always seems to coment on what this aj dude is selling and has done some recones for his DD subs so if you get in contact with him and explain everything you might get somewhere?

fill us in on what happened? how did he screw you over?

I've got his mobile off a guy who bought an amp off him.

If we can't get anything happening over the phone then I shall get hold of Phil.

I bought a GT-28 off him, through paypal. After a month I decided it wasn't coming to find he had been banned from CAA and paypal wouldn't do anything.

well that sux, I farkin hate thieves and scammers.

Paypal should have more information than just his email address.

For him to receive the money from paypal he has to register and verify a bank account or credit card details.

That obviously means that there is a paper trail, leading to a bank account which he would have needed ID to open.

Don't let it go, it is only a small amount of money, but it is the principal that counts. If he gets away with this how many other people is he going to rip off before he gets caught.

The good thing is though if he gets caught and ends up in jail, you can rest satisfied that he will be in for some group lovin'

Good luck with finding the prick

Wasn't through ebay :S

I don't support buying Car Audio gear through ebay (Though through a forum is really no different than ebay.)

Was second hand gear from a forum, CAA. I just thought someone might know him on here since he has a skyline. The CAA admin have been helpful but same as me, all emails unanswered - that mobile is disconnected. Name brings up nothing.

New lead though, might take a while for it to come through.

  • 3 weeks later...

Just updating now.

He claims it is at a store getting fixed - for 4 months.

Hired a personal investigator now, when I find his phone number I am giving him a call and letting him know he has 3 weeks to refund me the $820 + PI fees or he'll be seeing me in court and if that happens I'll be claiming legal fees on top.

Have had a consult with a lawyer - he told me not to add the lawyer fees onto how much he owes me yet, only do that if he denies to repay the money.

    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
    • The old approach was to fill the cylinder/chamber with a length of rope pushed in through the sparkplug hole. The new approach is to connect compressed air to the sparkplug hole and fill it with enough pressure to push the valves up. Doing either of these things with the head on and the engine in the car is a lot less pleasant than doing it properly.
    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
