I sort of got presured into a sale, in that instant tho I knew it would be best to put conditions on the sale as when they started it they had to jump start it.. already meant it had been sitting a long time.

Drove like crap too.. you learn I got my cash back after I faxed them a copy of the report, they basically listed the car as crap.

fair trading instructed me I was in the wrong as in the conditions all I said was "pending inspection of vehicle" and they said the conditions had not been clear enough and in future I had to say something like "pending inspection of vehicle where the customer was happy with outcome of inspection, if not contract will be terminated and money refunded" so next time ill take a lawyer :S

yea id probably get something similar to that if i went thru fair trading. such is life i guess

Figjam, in the past businesses that have been named in a negative light have threatened to sue the forum's owner. regardless of whether threads like these are correct, factual etc etc or not we now do not allow the business to be named to make sure christian doesn't spend his life hiring lawyers.

feel free to post positive or negative experiences, just don't openly name the business if it was negative.

Hey

i got my R33 from these guys and they are cool and there cars seem topshelf to me.

maybe abit pricey (they will bargin), but you only get what you pay for.

parra rd is dodgy at the best of times, for anything.

thats my 2 cents

These guys are dodgy. They tried to get me to buy an r32 with scratches all over it saying 'but its original paint'. Had few minor dents too. He said he would get a sunroof and everthing i wanted installed if i put a deposit down. He had me there for about 45mins trying to sell me a car. I gave him unrealistic demands he was trying to meet but couldnt. I have to say, if he got me a r32 gtr for $14,000 ,i would have taken it. The place where i actually got my car from (on parra rd too) wasnt much better, but they had the car i wanted so i had to deal with the devil to get it. When they said its the cleanest you will find, they were right in this instance, lol.

I second what Rio had to say. We get what we paid for sometimes.

I also purchased my car from NSP and paid a little more but I'm still happy about the car.

Damn I do need new headlights....if you know anyone with a pair!

=D that's where I went too, great fellas.

if you want to know the name of the place, PM the thread starter. if you want to try and subvert the rules by all means do it but you will end up with a temp ban again. d'oh.

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 <REMOVED>.

Was he holding a gun to your head?

No one can pressure you into anything. It'll be ok, pumpkin. I'm here for you. Hugz?

Really?

I wouldn't.

It'll last a few weeks, maybe a month and u're in for a rebuild.

If you're going to buy a 32 gtr, spend the extra and get a rebuilt one to save yourself the pain/hassles. Otherwise you're just digging a hole and jumping head first into it. (im experienced at this).

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
