yep, exactly. And I posted why it was being deleted in the thread before I deleted it - don't you get instant email notification of replies?

Please use the 'wanted to buy' thread. If someone made a new thread every time they wanted to buy something, the forum would consist of nothing but. I let the occasional urgent one stay, but your thread didn't fit that criteria.

Probably right Carl....I just don't get the time to do the necessary research for new businesses & change of addresses.

If you feel like giving it a go, I'll unlock the thread for you for a short period

I have been VERY lenient on this in the past, but will start to warn and then ban people if this continues.

Also, it is not kosher to join the site and the same day start flogging your wares. We would much rather you be a part of the Skyline community, come on cruises, be a part of it all, and then use this community to sell your items - rather than you not being around whatsoever, the join the site just to flog your wares. It is not cool at all, and most other forums you require 100 posts to sell anything at all, so we are being very fair.

What is wrong with this? Extra parts for sale is great for us who are looking for a great deal! Isn't the more second hand stuff for sale the better?

I don't really see the issue.

Are you talking specifically about people joining up just to sell stuff?

The answer is simple - we (and you) have no way to vet scammers and people who do the wrong thing. On Ebay you have buyer histories and more importantly payment protection (to some extent) from Paypal. We have a new feedback system on SAU (which obviously did not exist when this thread was created), which offers some history on people, but of course it is buyer beware. You would not believe the number of scams that get reported to us of SAU users being ripped off - and not surprisingly it is almost always new users to SAU doing the scamming, and obviously SAU (and the buyer) have no real recourse.

By advising people to only buy from people that have been around on SAU for a while, have contributed to the community in some way (and even better if they have a positive feedback rating), is only prudent I would have thought.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
