Beware! If You Are Selleing Your Car In Melbourne..


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, Just a warning to anyone selling their cars. I read the other day that someones S15 got stolen in a violent fashion. Well i was just told about a similar thing that happened yesterday to a guy around the corner from me (mitcham area).

He had 2 guys come to inspect his HSV Senetor, it was all good, they seemed nice enough and they were driving a Porsche Boxster. They all went for a test drive in the HSV then they pulled over, the owner was hit by some kind of Tazer/Stun Gun and thrown out of the car..

They left the Porsche behind but it turns out that was stolen too.

So be very careful people as this seems to be getting common

im currently selling my car, ill make sure i have a couple of mates with me when people come to look at it :laugh:

Make up some water filled seat covers, which are connected from seat to seat. That way if the dude trys to tazer you he will get some electric loving aswell.

haha im sure he will be crippled by the time he tried to tazer me :laugh: neither myself or my brother go easy on theives :banana: They will be sorry they even thought about pinching my pride and joy :banana:

no dezz, they wont get the chance to tazer me for my car. Thats one thing i despize and thats car theives.. The blokes down the road from me are quite dodgey and iv had my eye on them for a while ever since they were at my driveway behind my car.. So far my vls been broken into and deck was stolen then dads van was broken into.. they cant read and all papers were there so nothing was stolen...

Someone else beat me to breaking their windows :)

when i sell something, i always get the person to come to my work, during the day. this being my family business, it's a heap load easier for me to do that than anyone else.

i recommend if anyone were to sell a car, or some parts, speak to your boss if you are able to get the potential buyers to come to you at work, with workmates there, and easier for things to stay safe as well. could always try get another work mate to follow around when on the test drive as well.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
