some one had to have seen this come on guys any info will help, the guy who bought it off me has defaulted on payments and the car has never been signed over to him but somehow he has sold it. Trying to talk to the person who currently has it, cause in my eyes they have done nothing wrong and want to talk to them about the situation.

Cause as I understand it the car was swapped, and the guy I sold the car to is willing to rectify the problem inorder to avoid legal issues.

So any help in locating the person who currently had it is greatly appreciated

Anyone seen this car lately guys?? It is now about to go through court to have the car recovered. The reason I am chasing it is cause the guy who brought it off me has stopped making payments but has on sold the car I presume without the buyers knowledge that it wasn't theres to sell...

Mate is this car still live near you??

Yeah he was paying me directly... I know in hindsight would never of done it, but the guy played the hard done by routine and yeah I felt sorry for him.... Never ever again... Now I'm trying to locate this thing cause I don't want to do the wrong thing by the person who currently has it, cause it might be a bit of a shock if the cops rock around with a tow truck and take the car

I feel like a passed a car exactly the same as this on the gold coast near where I live yesterday. Southport area.

Could be a different car but they had the same bonnet, maroon with black stripe.

I think I've seen this at stafford where i live. It was at Phantom motors getting work done when we bought the supra for my girl. He's also waved at me when we pass on maundrel tce. Also seen it on the long bridge out to redcliffe. Call Phantom motors im sure they have contact details for him if hes a customer or a mate. :)

The background story of why you want to track down this car has certainly evolved from your original post...

So let me get this straight you're trying to find the car so you can repossess it from the current owner because you still part-own it ? that's why you really posted this thread ? I'm just a bit confused why it seems as though you didn't explain the situation a little more transparently originally...

good luck though...amazing how people find it so difficult to properly conduct the purchase of a car to prevent shit like this...

Hey guys anyone seen this lately... And no I am not trying to reposess it, I want to talk to who has it now and arrange to buy it back as I haven't got the money I agreed to sell it for but have received part of it and from what friends of the person who the original deal with me was done have told me it was sold for approx $15,000 to the person who currently has it and that is what roughly has been paid off to me so far. So I want to talk to them to offer them compensation in return of the car... Cheers guys....

grammar fail... hard to understand. That post was the longest sentence I've ever seen in my life. Looked a lot like a paragraph... yet only had one full stop. Confusing. :D

So you've been given 15K, and they bought it for 15K, and you want to buy it back for more than 15K? I think that's what you were trying to say.

What happens if they don't want to sell it? Seriously, I'm not asking to be a prick. I want to know what plan B is. There's been a couple of "I'm going to ask them to sell me their car" posts lately... and I want to know if people have backup plans for it the question falls on deaf ears.

you came to your senses and kept your non turbo R33?

Are your senses drunk?

FKN LOL

I agree he does have a point here. If they are getting work done on it, chances are they don't want to sell it.

Well I am open to negotiate, I just want a chance to talk to them. This car was my pride and joy and hours upon hours of late nights went into it, and to not have it needless to say I am entirely gutted. I guess when I talk to them I will take it from there. No I don't have a plan B I just at the moment want to find out what happened to it and talk to the people who currently have it about buying it back for an agreed amount.

Please guys I would love to have it back for christmas.

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
