Now Nick

I just spent a little time over on the darkside (NS) and it seems you know this guy well.

It looks like you do a little wheeling and dealing together.

Now it turns out you sold a car to him..Yeah. a Gold S13.

And then he put it up for sale and you were trying to help him sell it. Bump Bump Bump..BLA BLA BLA

Not to mention you get other forum users to sell parts for you under there name.. :)

Should i go on....

If this guy has ripped you off sort out ya own Sh#t.

The highest you'll find.

Think about it for a second and then tell me im wrong.

How do you know ANY of the above it true?

You don't. Assumptions offer nothing, proof is everything. We don't give out ANY personal details easily, without solid evidence.

So if you have proof - follow correct channels via police and so on.

Handing out someone's details over the internet above what you can "google" isn't something i would expect a "mate" to do at all.

Irony much?

You're assuming the opposite, which is why your argument sucks.

On topic, being proactive, HAD you known this character doesn't mean you'd run off behind his back to tell the world his details.

If indeed that you were close enough to know or find out the truth, asking him directly what the story is, then asserting weather or not to A) Notify him of this thread/stories etc and counter it/save rep/ or -

B)If you aren't happy with what your "mate" has done to make a quick buck, this is where the integrity bit comes into play, you'd notify the OP and help as best you can.

No irony at all. I'm not assuming anything.

There is no evidence presented before me.

I need evidence that would considerably sway me to think about handing over information from an Admin perspective.

That is not an assumption, that unfortunately, is fact.

Add to the that some more the other stuff that's somewhat come to light now, this also does not really surprise me.

I've had a lot of requests over the years from people claiming other users have 'stooged'/stolen whatever.

The ones that are reluctant/have not/will not - report to the police...

They are the ones that are hiding some of the story, which I suspect the case is here.

You cant honestly say you'd take a 5k hit to the pocket, as a poor student, and not contact the Police/lawyer and so on to at least ATTEMPT to sort it out.

It does not add up.

unfortunately...as much as i hate to admit this - i agree with Ash here.

If you were a poor uni student that just got ripped 5g's you'd at least go to the uni lawyer to ask about your options.

And as someone else mentioned, if this happned a long time ago then if you had dug a little deeper you wouldhave found him already.

i know this is a useless post, but if you wanted to get this guy bad enough, you would have gotten him by now, especially with all those details (hint: his old work would have ALL the details you need about this guy...)

so yeh, either get your shit together or shut the f*ck up.

no point complaining if you're not gonna put the hard yards in and do something about it.

So, in saying that, i would do the following if i were you:

1. Go through all his old posts and see if you can uncover anything useful

2. As mentioned, get in contact with other ppl who has bought stuff from him, see if anyone can help you

3. Get in contact with his old work, see what information they can give you (visit if you can, and you might have to put a diff spin on it as they will probably be protective of him)

4. Go to your Uni lawyer if you are a 'poor uni student' and see what your rights are from here

or, to avoid all of the above

5. POLICE, 5-0, Jacks, cops, Anh Hai, whatever you wanna call them. They will do all the above and find him for you.

So there you go.

Like i said, if you wanted to find someone bad enough, trust me, you can find them.

Happy Hunting :)

Integrity much?

errm, dude you cant expect Admin (or members) to go hand out personal information to anybody other than the Police.

You wouldnt be too happy if i went around posting a sob story about how some guy called MattD took my money and wouldnt hand over his R34 for sale....so gimme his details quick.

The original poster (and any future posters) should contact Police, and this thread deleted.....

Point missed.

It was all based on this :

No-one is going to tell you much dude im afraid, i know i wouldnt if i knew the dude

So what if you knew him? and KNEW that he chose to scam someone from our greater community. You could confirm it, that a friend or similar chose to do that. That's where the integrity comes into play.

Now, go re-read my post.

It has nothing to do with Admins using there resources to pass over information. It has to with knowing the person, confirming that he's done something bad and then using that integrity to help whoever was wronged.

Again, the irony.

I still wouldnt. How do you know what the dude @ the other end is going to do? You dont. Again - your assuming that its all well and good based on NO FACT.

You wouldnt feel bad with the following:

"You gave out personal info. Then a month later, suddenly your mate turned up in a hospital with knife wounds or some badly broken bits from a pole."

Or better yet - For giving out the info YOU fiond yourself in trouble.

Where i grew up back in the day, thats how it was. Plenty of people i know have had holes in them and beatings for pissy shit. I dont let out anything without GOOD cause.

Ye people might dick around... but is a chop chop session fair trade for 5k?

So get your stupid irony, integrity or whatever else and have fun. Im not going to re-read a thing.

If you'd drop your MATE in for something like that - says more about your integrity than mine

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
