well I have tried to keep this secret from everyone hoping that maybe my luck will change - of this phuckhead will come to his senses...... and I will get my car back

Anyway - The guy I bought my skyline off illegally sold it to me as it had a Bill of Sale on it for a $30 000 loan. Before you all go "Didn't you ring REVS" yes I knew it was an encumbered vehicle and I had a contract drawn up that he would pay his loan out - this contract is with the police now and is the basis for a fraud charge.

So in a nutshell a truck drove up to my driveway and took my car away while I was in Singapore - and yes they can do that.

This guy was a cop under my Dad's mate (who they went to school together and joined the police force together.. so they are pretty good friends) and he is helping me out, putting charges together etc and advising me.... also i have a lawyer - that was also in the police force with my dad that is helping me. (its a big circle of love). My dads copper mate kicked this piece of sh*t out of the force as well... The guy's bank is being as helpful as possible... but in 2 weeks unless his account is settled, my car will be auctioned off.

To make things worse - this guy has run off to the UK - but I have ensured that when he enters the country he will be arrested in immigration and given the broom stick treatment. He has one fraud charge from me and one from the bank.

I have spoken to his parents and they have no money and I have called this guy in the UK - he keeps telling me its getting sorted, when it isnt.

So there you go - Liz no longer has a skyline but is still paying off one.

Please don't tell me what I should have done or why I didn't do something - that is no use me...

I don't know if ANY of you can help in anyway... I don't know... I am at wits end with this.....

thanks guys

That sucks big time. One has to wonder though, why did you buy a car knowing it had a large some of money owing on it? Surely there are other cars out there similiar to the one you purchased?

I just hope it all works out for you. Though 2 weeks isn't a lot of time. :)

I can't find out how much was owing on it (privacy act) - you assume that the cost of the car would cover the debt.... but the debt isn't for the car - it was used at a Bill of Sale - like colateral or whatever. But the contract covered that. It doesn't matter what I should or shouldn't have done now...

When you buy a car that is financed, usually the deal is they get a pay out figure from the bank, they tell you, you verify it with the bank, and make the bank cheque out directly to the creditor, with the rest going to the seller.

The bank cheque is useless to the guy, he has to pay the loan off with it, if he doesnt, the bank cheque is never cashed and it can all be worked out.

But sorry to hear about it, theres too many dodgy types around, and the down side is that the bank can handle losing that much money, while it makes a big difference to you, and who gets the first pick at assets, the stupid bank.

I don't know what the debt is for... its all tied up in the privacy act. (i mean $30 000 wouldn't ALL be for the skyline) But Police and Nurse bank hold an ownership on the car (like when you have a mortgage), its under REVS, and he was not allowed to sell it. There are too many things to explain.... my head hurts

Deesh - yes I know all this, I am covered by my contract, but that didn't stop him leaving the county. As much as I appreciate it - I don't want people to tell me what I SHOULD have done.... I know.... I want help, advice for what I can DO, or something I don't know

Sh*t hey

Thats TERRIBLE :( no doubt everyone is on your side

All the best in a very tough and upsetting situation.....

Although i cant comment, its probably not worth getting upset over (which is impossible of course!!!) because IT WILL all work itself out :)

Your not the one in trouble, and im sure the bank etcwill realise that you shouldnt come to grief over all this. He's the one who should get reamed.

After it DOES all work out, sit back, relax and break the $%#s kneecaps :)

Good luck

I found out just as I got of the MRT at Bugis Junction in Singapore haha I don't think the singaporeans had heard such appalling language. I think I cried most of the way home on the plane. (poor russ).. I felt so hopeless, being in another country and not being able to do anything

      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.
