Just make sure you work out if that is a good option mitch.....i am pretty sure there would be a great demand for parts if they are going at the right price.....good luck mate

When can I ask for a refund?

You have a right to seek a refund if the goods you bought:

• are faulty

• are unfit for their purpose (they don’t do what they

are supposed to do)

• do not match the description or sample you

were shown

• have defects that were not obvious or were not

brought to your attention when you bought them.

You do not have a right to seek a refund if you:

• simply change your mind

• buy the wrong item

• fi nd the goods cheaper at another store

• use the goods in a way that they were not made for

• caused the goods to become damaged.

However, you may still be entitled to seek a refund

under a store policy, warranty or guarantee.

Seeking a refund

To seek a refund you:

• should return the goods in a reasonable time

after buying them and you must not lose, destroy

or damage them

• may be asked to provide proof of purchase—

the best way to do this is to show your store receipt

or credit card or bank statement which shows details

of the purchase.

You have the right to seek a refund irrespective of

whether you have proof of purchase. In practice, however,

it is easier for you to seek a refund if proof of purchase

can be supplied to the retailer, supplier or manufacturer.

sweet error message off the forums... when I searched for loxton...lol

The error returned was:

just in case you wondered what the whole message would be like in French:

It depends on where he bought the engine from though, if it privite sale it's buyer beware.

bout 10:30 til 12:30ish. Spotted Dan, Luke, Vu and Nathan there as well

haha, so you left about the same time i did.

it apparently died pretty solid about 2am, with most of upstairs closed not too long after.

so, that noise is still there with stock wheels fitted. slightly annoying. will get the guys at morpowa to check it out when i have it dyno'd on wednesday.

jack up the car on that side, support it tight...with the wheel on rock it from the top back towards you, does it click ? if not try to rock it from side to side, does it knock a bit ?

loose wheel bearings, worn out ?

loose tie rods, worn out ?

sway bar loose or bushings worn ?

loose wheel or mis tightened ?

loose shock tower on top or bottom ?

loose dog bone bolts on the calipers ?

the wrong lug nuts, not coned the right way for the wheels ?

hit the wheel with a kick or rubber hammer, do you hear rattles, loose brake pads, shims ?

all pretty common on nissans, could be a worn gear on the steering rack as well ? but not so likely

hope that helps dave

lol i got that a couple of days ago,

google translate says:

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
