I dont think people need to go that far. No one lost heaps of money or any thing.

I remember sub zero when they where open in qld the place got shot up or some thing on those lines.

Maybe nobody lost heaps of money but the way i look at these things, if somebody tries to con/fraud you, just because they didnt get away with it doesn't make it less bad.

If you read the entire thread you will see that HArry is not lying, he simply put up a question asking his fellow SAU members to help him work out whether Jim was stooging him or not. Jim has blatently denied making a false claim even in the face of overwhelming evidence (ie his ad on car sales).

Allegations of what offer was made for the car and/or bad customer service are irrelevant and off-topic. Who cares what offer was made on the car and who cares if he treated a potential customer badly (which he has every right to do). The point here is the car is falsely advertised.

Teach a dog a trick, does it make it smarter or is it the same dog who now knows a trick?

Ponder that.

The fact that anybody is seriously engaged in this off-topic discussion itself speaks volumes...

just to add a bit of flame to this thread.

about 2-3 years ago, i was also in the same boat as Harry, nearly got stooged by this prick.

selling a dodgy s15 to me...luckily i was smart enough to stay away. The car clearly had leaks and when it came to question time. He was like which jap cars dont have accidents and leaks? its all good. LOL. this was like 24k car. If you look carefully, a while ago, on carsales, he's also trying to sell a 180sx.

That car was fully modified, with cage, removed airbags, etc. He still claims it's all road legal and he can put airbags and shit back on...

The car was on sale for like a year, last time i looked, it was still there.

Oh. So grammar and spelling is a measure of intelligence now? :blink:

In terms of this thread, looks like Jim has been caught out.

However, in terms of the deal with Harry, who knows who is lying.

And there is no legal case against Jim, not in terms of the actual deal, or advertisement anyway (i.e if he argues mistake.)

So no point trying to scare him in this regard, that said, his business reputation has obviously now been tarnished.

Mate STFU you have no idea, whether there is a breach of section 52 is whether the statement is misleading or deceptive or likely to be mislead or deceive the consumer, intention pays no part and the lack of intention to mislead or deceive is certainly not a defense!

So before you start saying there is no legal case to answer, ask a lawyer,and he will tell you this guy is f**ked in the arse if the ACCC got wind of it or if some else decided to commence legal proceedings against him. The relevant facts are:

1. his conduct was in trade or commerce,

2. it was false, it was misleading and that is that.

Loss is not even a factor!

PS I secretly believe Jim is gay, I have never EVER seen so many references to gay, poof, ask f**king etc in one thread from one poster!

I'm all turned around on this. I can see it from jims point of view. he just mis-translated "thorn rose" as "full nismo S tune upgrade package from nismo omori factory". it happens to the best of us...

domo arigato mr robato.

about my spelling , well i didnt go to uni , unlike you may did !

Wow this thread has taken off. Surely this quote is the best one though.

Not sure about Victorian schools, but in NSW we learn to spell during primary school, not uni.

we're not quite as advanced as you are up there in NSW...

Generally speaking, when someone wishes to contest a legal issue, you attack the logic presented therein and not the person. The approach you have taken

makes you look unprofessional and undermines the credibility of your statement.

LOL. Mate, he has not sold any item, valuable consideration has not been exchanged for the benifit received (i.e the car.)

So what conduct was false and misleading? The provisions you refer to apply when a good has been exchanged, i.e if i buy a car with a expecting it to be a s-tune engine, but it turns out to be a standard engine. Key word= Buy, where a deposit can constitute the finalisation of the deal.

In terms of the add being misleading WITHOUT the provision of consideration, one can simply claim false advertising, in which case it is easy to argue mistake or error.

No need to ask a Lawyer, I am a final year law student and my dad an established barrister. :)

The fact that anybody is seriously engaged in this off-topic discussion itself speaks volumes...

How is it off topic?

It's a response to people suggesting Jim is a moron because he has lower than average literacy skills.

The fact you've jumped in without reading and comprehending the posts preceding yours speaks volumes.

As stated earlier I'm not defending either.

My personal opinion is they're both knob ends for entirely different reasons.

Get over it, get on with it and stop whining like little bitches over a non-event.

lol Jim has all of SAU wanting to stab each other now :verymad:

fyi, misrepresentation of a sale can be an issue if the sale does go ahead and the customer doesn't receive what was advertised, otherwise he can argue the ad was placed with errors.

I think we should leave the poor fella's grammar & grampar out of this.......I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the poor bugger :wub:

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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.
