Please provide your contact number, and also advise exactly who you purchased it from on this forum.

Lastly, do yourself a favour and post pics of the unit in question including pics of the serial number to assist the sale.

Ouch.. yea you should be cautious now-a-days, esp new members signing up..

Seems like the latest scam.. pfc for sale at cheap prices.. should always buy locally n in person!!

Hopefully this person isnt a scam and you get your power fc..

oh shit! you actually transferred money over to him?? I PMed him and wanted to buy as well.

He told me he stays at 56 pitt st eltham 3095. Told him i'll go by and pick it up straight away, after that, no news from him.

^^^^

WORD!!

I'm bumping this up because too many people are getting ripped off on scams like this one (Including myself).

It's pretty obvious from the lack of detail, number of posts and the way the post is written that this is a scam, but it can look like SUCH a good deal that people just can't resist!

THERE WILL be more cheap (maybe not this cheap) LEGIT power fc's in good time, just hang around and you see genuine ones come up for around the 1-1.2k mark!

Any newby or people desparate for a pfc, please pay attention and don't get caught! Take your time even if it means missing out on something because you annoyed the seller!!

Ask heaps of questions, get info on the seller, arrange to meet at their house if possible, even get a photo of their licence, if they're legit, they probably won't mind cos they have nothing to worry about. And if you do miss out on a bargain because you were trying to be certain, at least yiou haven't lost your money!!

AND if you do get ripped off, do yourself and everyone else a favour and report it to the police and do everything in your power to catch the people doing this. If you just let it go, or think you'll run into them down the track, it means you're leaving these guys/girls free to scam someone else in the meantime.

Hey,

that's the address he PM'ed me with. He gave me his bank details as well.

bsb 033120 acc number 220180

not sure if that's the same one you have?

Go approach the Fraud department. They are located at the St Kilda road complex. Do it quick and grab this arse hole.

R31Nismoid should take note of this scammer. :D

Sometimes, no matter how careful you are, you can be scammed. I've been done a couple of times this year, and I was careful

Bad luck matey. I feel for ya.

Take it to the police ASAP. They should advice you further.

    • Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.
    • So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.  
    • Is that the blue one rpm?  
    • Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.
    • I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything.
