Hey Nathan, your better off trying to talk to James and not Paul.

i got all your messages forwarded to me and your reply etc if you truly want to pull out now than James is the one to speak to but i'm not too sure how the return of money will go

As stated in my email, StS is the distributor and ACPT is the supplier. The group buy was organised through StS so they are therefore responsible for issues with their supplier. In other words, don't offer parts for sale that you can't get from your supplier. I have no issue with StS and this is obviously not "normal" practice for ACPT, it is just unfortunate for Paul that he is caught in the middle. And any communication with James is clearly having no effect.

Either way the matter has been referred to the Department of Fair Trading so they can decide what action to take if any.

I'll suggest it to him today. but i know what your getting at, it shouldnt be our problem to be chasing these things up.

I have already sent out Marc Palmer shaft and Nathan Wilson and keith

Sinclair are the only 2 that did not receive there drivesahfts correct? I

have no more shafts here and everything was shipped out. I have started to

remake these shafts for the 2 people you have on here and I am pushing them

to get out ASAP. If you need anything from me, feel free contact me.

did he give you a tracking number Keith?

Nope...claims that Fedex have lost the shafts. You just don't lose boxes that big like that. I cant believe that Fedex would stay in business very long losing packages. Having said that I bought some Snowboard gear through priceusa a couple of weeks ago and the proprietor told me that the ups tracking number was relatively pointless as they enter it wrong...it has a bar code so how does that happen? The snowboard gear has turned up on time though...so go figure. :D

Same explanation I got from James today and he quoted my home address not the workshop address. There is more to this than meets the eye friends :)

When/if it gets here that will work out well as the centre bearing feels likes its going so it will save me replacing it

So of the lucky guys who have reviced their shafts... anyone fitted one up yet?

Anyone care to confirm what parts received? It appears we might have to make up a 5mm spacer...

Any other R32 guys have one in the car? Care to confirm how it went and what parts you have? (Just checking I arent missing something)

Michael

ok thanks

thats exactly what Mark is doing for me, making up a new spacer. :)

I wasnt sure If I was missing something out of my kit or if they ship them like this. You'd expect them to trial their product properly...

There is no way it should be designed to just shit on that lip and not go all the way home!

cheers

It's already done and on your car. I had a look at it today. :D

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
