It's sad but there are dickheads out there who would go to extreme lengths to threaten people's life because they are too Phucken stupid to earn enough money to own a GTR.

I had my car advertised in the SMH during the easter weekend and some dickhead called up, pretending to be interested in the car and when I refused to give him my address as I was sus, he burst out in a cry of desperation saying, "Give me your car or I'll slash your throat". Obviously I did not waste my time with this call and hung up after this but just wanted to warn you guys out there who own exotic import cars.

If you plan to sell your car, be carefull who you give the address to. First thing is to ask for a LAN number where you can call them back at a more convenient time. If they refuse, hang up as they are obviously not serious. I made the mistake of continuing to talk to this guy long enough for him to threatened me but at least I didn't give him my address, but the threat was enough to get my blood boiling at 110 degrees.

SO be careful guys. It is sad but there are dickheads out there and some are crazy enough to do stupid things to get hold of your ride. Be smart and be aware of the warning signs and know the difference between a serious buyer and a time waster. All the best boys. Sorry I haven't been around to chat but have shitloads to do. See you around.

hahah:p

Yep - Amen to that......

I had my place robbed after I stupidly gave my address to a bloke after advertising an LCD projector in the trading post..... never, ever again............. I am now the most suspicious, paranoid phucka out there.......

PS : Beerside rules..... he he he :P

Don't take it to heart.

You should probably use a mobile line only. Call them back and block your CND number display.

There are heaps of tyre kickers out there and even more mentally unbalanced people.

You should try selling a house and see the absolute losers who think they can pony up on a $750,000 estate...

T.

Yup, it was a mobile line and although I didn't take it to heart, I was si furious that I was tempted to give him my address so that I could wait for him outside and take my anger out but I knew that would have been a stupid idea as it was my anger that's doing the thinking and not my brain. Once I calmed down, I knew they were just threats and have no balls to do anything else. A smart thief would have played it cool and did it differently instead of demanding me to hand over my ride over the phucken phone, I mean how stupid is that? Anyways....can't be too carefull these days, too many sik kunts out there, pardon the french fellas.

Now that would have been sweet! The stupid prick prolly would have went to the addy as soon as he got it as well.

BINGO..should of brought it him down to the west side of melb and we could of taken care of him. but then again the guy who made the threat would of probably been from the west side.

lol.

but then again...swoop u have to remind urself u do have access to a 34 gtr vspec. u know that is a ok car. (sarcasm)

u would get stupid idiots wanting to take it 4 a spin. "omg its a 34 gtr lets c how fast we can get it."

Well, if you want some help when you have to meet with a prospective buyer, let all the Sydney boys know and i'm sure we will all be willing to come down for support.

What you think guys and girls ??

Let's make a "Help Swoop" club ??

By the way, awesome ride, i hope to have one one day (probably when they are 15 years old and more in my price range !!)

Guys, thanks for all the support and suggestions. Next time, I will give the pranksters the address to Akira and have Minh waiting at the front with his singlet doing a super flex. That would about scare anyone off their witts.

My next ride will be a Datsun 180...aint no-one will be calling me with threats in that classic. ;)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
