thats sucks dude, really hope the person in the right wins this.

have you got any priors? i don't know how your so contained about it i would fuming... don't forget if the legal ave's fail use the media, TT and ACA lap this sort of shit up.

yeah i know dickhead keeps changing his story and intially they believe him over me well, i dont have court dates till next month so i got a bit of time to sort it all out and lol no i dont have any priors so i guess all i can do is see how it pans out although i do feel like going around to his house and kicking the shit out of him thanks for all the words of wisdom guys

Hey everybody, so ill start the story from the beginning, i bought an r34 gtt about 2 months ago now paid just over 18g for it i know cheap aye, anyway wat i found out yesterday after the police rocked up at my house was that the guy had reported it stolen the day i bought it, because being young and not knowing wiser i paid him and filled out the change of rego papers and he said that he would take them to public transport

omg :blink:

Are you saying this all happened 2 months ago and they only came today to take the car?

Was there an ad anywhere for it? ( Carsales etc? ) and surely if you paid by bank cheque, its proof you paid him? Or was the car even his to sell??

Whats with all the accusations of plasmas being lifted etc etc, sounds bizarre?

People are a*holes sometimes - sorry to hear of this, hope it can be sorted out somehow in your favour.

yeah i know really bizarre but atm all i can do is hope that the coppers arent aking it out for a drive ervy now and then cause when they confisczted it the copper driving it back was thrashing the crap out of it and they wanted me to be co-operative f**king cops piss me off not thorough and im the one likely to go down for it when i done nothing wrong its just f**king putting me down

This thread is farken bizarre :)

Isnt it!

To say your car was knocked off is one thing, but to also say a plasma and other stuff was also taken is just totally ridiculous....I mean, I know I always help myself to peoples property before test driving a car Im gonna steal ;)

i just don't see how anybody could take this charge seriously. a few things are not adding up.

did he end up cashign that cheque you gave him? if he has, you should have a bank statement showing you are 18k down

when were you supposed to have taken a bloody plasma? they don't even fit into skylines

why haven't you transferred rego yet, if you got the car two months ago?

the questions keep piling up...

little legal advise.

1. as we can all already tell the guy would have been a moron for letting you "test drive" his car and go "sure why dont you take the plasma it like to go for a drive." but either way, he needs proof he owned a plasma.

2. how long ago was the car reported stolen? im sur you would have taken photos of it and if they have a date on them which is before he reported stolen you will have a bit more evidence.

also you have bank reciepts and everything and if you wrote a cheque for him the stub of yours would have had what you bought.

3. you relise you must have a copy of the hand over papers. your case is liekly to get completely looked over for disregarding the proper legal situation. no signed available papers = it was not a legal contract and possibly would not hold up in court.

the legal system is f**ked either way but you may find a loop hole. AND if this was the first car you have bought on your own then you might not go for negligence to insure a legal contract if you did not know the steps involved.

but law is always changing, i am studying law at the moment but not this particuar area. mainly media :) so you cannot take my full word for this

good luck anyway.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
