mxfly,

I wouldnt go admitting you've had someone check his NAB account on a public forum. That's illegal, all sorts of laws have just been broken.

So what if none of the cash goes to japan ? maybe he only gets it when he needs it ?

what your doing is wrong.

buying from these guys is definately cheap. Most of the time u will skim past customs on miss out on tax too - but be I would always include that in your costs, and if your not taxed. then bonus.

With the tax, you are charged 15% on item cost, then another 10% on item cost + shipping cost + 15% tax... so a bit over 25%.. .which can be a lot on some items!

Having customers deposit funds into an AUS account saves them on banking charges. To transfer funds overseas will cost you $25 AUS then when the funds come into Japan another 2,500 Yen $34 AUS is taken from the funds again. So for every purchase that goes into an AUS account the customer saves $59 AUS. There is nothing dishonest about it. On the other hand. To go looking through someones personal account is low.

Ronin 09, that;s exactly what I'm concerned about. I was going to order a whole heap of stuff from Jason (have spoken to Simon as well b4 his accident) but before I did the transfer, I got a friend of mine to check his NAB account. What he found was that heaps, and I mean heaps of dough was going into his personal account, BUT nothing was being sent to Japan. That really concerned me, and I decided not to do the transfer. Now it might be true that some parts (eg the Trust stuff) are on back order, but if you think about it, there MUST be some ppl who ordered items that are readily available in Japan and should be shipped promptly. His account was checked 2 weeks ago.

I've bought from Greenline and I'm definately gonna buy more stuff off them. Simon is very helpfull, I've spoken to him heaps of times. The delivery time is around 14 days after they get your money in there account.

I've tried to buy stuff of nengun, but never got any replies from my emails. But yea mxfly, thats dodgey dude.

i've ordered 3 apexi timers with greenline, and have been waiting for nearly 2 months? you guys say they're awesome, is this usual? i keep emailing and he replies promptly, but keeps saying he's waiting to get the timers from apexi... i woulda thought that timers would be easy to get...

i'll just keep waiting...

Sometimes Yahoo automatically puts incoming mail into the bulk folder. Basicly thats were all the spam goes. Because I get spamed times beyond number it takes time to go and check the bulk mail. Also sometimes when I reply to an e mail it comes back to me saying " [email protected] this address can`t be reached". If you don`t receive a reply try sending your request to my PM on this forum.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
