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.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
