Hey Guys

As the title says, i'm going to throw out a warning about XXXXXXXXX. He is a Japanese importer located on Parramatta Road. All that i have to say that the salesman who delt with me was shonty. He pressured me into buying one of the cars like crazy and wouldnt even let me drive it back to the dealership without me first putting down a "lazy hundred". the dealer made me sign what i thought was a holding deposit slip but turned out to be a contract of saleship. the salesman's name was XXXXXX. This in turn was pretty sad, but what is worse is that when i tried to collect my holding deposit, he refused to give it to me there and then. But claimed he would send me a check, now two weeks later, no check has arived.

I just want to warn other people about how this lot works. I brought my car from another dealership. during payment i asked him about the period of time before i am locked into a contract. The scary thing is that, after telling him my tale, without naming the dealership or salesman, he guessed the dealership and got the salesman's name in two guesses.

Just a warining to people that this dealership isnt the best to work with, especially if you're just looking around. however i am sure that there would be people out there that have had good experiences with them.

Cheers Guys

are you trying to get banned? not only are you starting multiple threads on the same topic, but in your other thread you were warned about not naming any business you wish to bad mouth on the forum. it may seem harsh, but rules are rules and they are in place to protect the forum owner from any potential legal action. you were explained the rules then chose to ignore them. next infringement is account suspension.

    • 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.

    • 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?
