okay everyone...

autosalon is in 11 days from now and i still haven't received my rear bar and my painter is waiting on it...

everything else on the car is done, i just don't have a rear bar!!!

i ordered the rear bar from monkey warehouse in queensland and i believe it was sent away last monday... 8 days ago from today...

nobody has come to my house to deliver nor have they gone to the painters workshop, i haven't been left anything in the mailbox either...

i just want to know where i stand and what i can do besides ask monkey warehouse directly for a consignment number...

i will be doing this tomorrow morning, i haven't been calling them the last two days because i expected it to arrive at home, of which it hasn't...

so, other than calling them tomorrow for a consignment number and then calling the courier company to chase up on it, is there anything i can do ie.

get them to send me another one, with next day postage? how much would that cost?

anything!!!

i am stressing out here, car looks so good but i need to sort out my rims too, there is way too much stress coming over me at the moment *shakes head* getting quite frustrated, courier companies and Monkey Warehouse themselves told me it shouldn't have taken more than 5 working days to arrive in Perth Metro...

it's been 6 already!!!

any constructive advice would be greatly appreciated, cheers

Andrew

should call them up and get tracking number and that, only way you can find out.

even if you ask them to send another one, will take another 5 days for that one to come in. less time to work on it.

should be in this week i reckon

Good luck with it and cant wait to see it at autosalon :banana:

Generally normal freight stuff east-west coast only travels 2 days of the week, so if you just missed one date, it should be here in 2-3 days tops... call them and ask for tracking details.

btw... give me a pm/call about my stereo shit you owe me for, when the stress of Autosalon is gone.

Cheers :laugh:

Number of factors to consider:

Did the company take it to courier the day you payed for it?

Did the courier put it on the first available vehicle etc?

Has the courier been delayed or had priority listings?

Has the depot in Perth actually sorted through there crap and got the product out to you?

Has some amateur courier delivery person been to house and left a note etc?

I ordered a kit for my Gtr from a reputable company who is a major sponsor of SAU - they told me it would take 5-7 days to arrive! It took nearlly 3 months for the kit to arrive!

The company would not answer my emails, so I tried calling a number of times and the blame simpley kept getting handed off; the courier was at fault, the depot has lost it, its fallen of the truck etc!

Haha In the end I got my old lady on the phone and she threatend them etc and finally got the name of courier company and depot! Turns out it had been sitting in perth for 2 and a half months and they had overlooked it and to go with that when they came to deliver it; they simpley dumped the kit at the front door and left, I was working away at the time and had to get a friend to go get it out of the front yard before it was knicked!

I would not stress until you have spoken to the them and got a consignment number to track it.

Most companies these days have an online tracking system.

Its not uncommon that for bigger items they will be left off the local delivery truck to fit in 20 smaller items. If your item was not marked "EXPRESS" then they can take 10-14 days to deliver. With this in mind, you may find its sitting on a dock somewhere and a phone call to explain whats happening may propmt them to make room.....or you could arrange to pick it up.

But dont stress until you have taken those steps first :laugh:

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
