If anyone knows of this person, dont even bother dealing with him cos after he gets the money you wont hear from him again. I lost out through ebay on $110 which isnt much but its the principle of it. Won the item end of June, paid in July, and reported it to ebay earlier this month. Apparently he is from the Seaford area but i cant confirm. his seller id was 123_jase but its been deactivated. Just a heads up for everyone to watch out for the low life degenerate theif.

Yeah, that's the thing... call me traditional, but can't touch it and see it in person - buying over the internet is, to some degree, still risky.

However, using Paypal is good - it does give you added security as everything is done through Ebay's third-party preferred Paypal.

You can call Ebay now, so I would call them up and seek assistance.

paypal are the biggest scammers known to mankind. no thanks, i'd rather rub honey on my genitals and sit on top of an anthill than deal with paypal.

sorry to hear you got scammed G - i agree with spunky_monkey - i too try not to buy anything online, if i cant touch it, then i dont buy it....rarely anyway...unless its a reputable online store (e.g just jap)

Every dodgy transaction I have had through paypal has been refunded almost straight away when buying from ebay...not many however.

Pay Pal stink!

I bought a used mechanical part (HKS branded) on Ebay using Pay Pal, good arrived, the PART fail to work, i logged my claim.............emails forward and back.........Seller rang me up from OVERSEA with abusive languages......Seller left abusive message on the logde centre in writing. At the end......

Pay Pal asked me to send the Part to HKS to have it certify that its malfuntion, i told them its a joke and don't worry about it.

Was this seller's feedback rating really low?

How did you pay?

Ebay can be a bit dodgy when it comes to getting your money back or making a complaint, paypal is better but its still owned by ebay anyway...

paypal are jerks, brought a $250 item, not only didn;t the seller send it, but he had a false home number and address so i couldn't get in contact with him other then email (which he never replied anyway). i claimed, paypal found it in his favour and i lost out...and 250s a lot for a full time student...

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
