Is anyone else here waiting on a Sydneykid suspension kit?

Can anyone help me get in contact with Sydneykid?

I have paid for one of his Bilstein suspension kits last november and now he is not contactable anymore.

Not sure if i will see my kit........getting really worried.

this is very unlike sydneykid.. hes always been a champ. my work shut down over christmas also and had taken deposits for parts etc.. but let them know that were shutting down etc.

hope all ends well though.

Does sound strange, He's been a member here for a long time. I bought one of his kits when they first came out without any problems. Im sure there is a genuine reason and worst case you will get a refund if he is unable to supply the parts. Goodluck

??? ive read a few complaints about this guy in the past, is he really that good or does a few chinese whisper recommendations go too far!

Ive been affected by the whole reputation recomendation before only to be dissapointed.....goodluck with the transaction, hopefully this is the last thread i read about members being kept waiting anxiously and stressed.

yes i have had nothing but great chats with Gary in late November and early December.... he said everything was on it's way before xmas, and any shipping hold ups are no longer a problem.

But now when i call his workplace they are saying he is uncontactable and they're not sure when/if he's back.....wtf?

That was my only way of contacting him.

They said he no longer has a computer there also so i assume he's packed up.... eeek!!

I tried to warn the forum about this guy about a year ago...only to cop a warning from mods.

He's entered at Superlap...maybe front him there...although last year he also entered and was a no-show.

ive never had a problem with Gary. when i ordered mine i told him how urgent it was, i paid on the thursday and he dropped them off himself on the Sunday. im sure he'll get in contact with you soon mate.

I didn't bother buying anything from him other than the shocks. Every other part in his discount 'group buy' was over priced. He even sold the R33 rear camber kit at the same price as the R32 kit, which made it $200 over retail, about a 300% mark up :( . He didn't adjust the price for over a year into the group buy until he was pulled up on it in public...

Its not looking good mate. If you go to the group buy section you can see that R31Nismoid has closed them all stating the same thing in each thread

No response to PM's from Admin, means these are all over red rover

Thanks

ok......I've just be updated by a close source to seek legal advise.

Apparently many others are.

so there you go fellas.....

All the best in the hunt, definitely anyone affected by this trader should register into this thread so you can keep updates on anything happening etc.

Hopefully the moderators will provide any details they can........unless they take bribes from the trader

i think with the stict legalities of this forum that it is highly unlikely that the mods are taking bribes.. or that gary would be fronting any amount of money that would be worth taking a bribe for... and no amount of bribe can hide any info if it come into a serious legal battle..

also if infact there are others and legal actions are to be taken.. try joining together and all sue together as will be cheaper in legal fees

further:

Gary does not work at superior suspension anymore.... he moved his office out according to them over xmas.

i've been told to get legal advise by a source who knows what is happening but won't expand on it. apparently i am one of many.

but the odd thing is...there seems to be no one else on this forum or other forums who have dealt with him lately or had anything on order so it's hard to band together or get extra info.

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
