Its a real webpage but the contact address is a post office box and the phone is a mobile....... very dodgy, shame you didn't ask before you bought. There are a heap of well known and reliable places in Aus to buy this kind of stuff.

I`m sorry dude, I just scanned their site, and they give 2 different ABN`s(Australian Business Numbers) for the same business name!

Check the ABN they give in the "Contact Us" part, then have a look in the "Products" section, and click on the "Policy" button, and look at the ABN they wrote under the "Refund Policy" section.

Like 51jay said, their address is a PO Box in a shopping center!

Theres not much you can do... sorry.

okie dokes... this is what I have found out:

* MAXIMUM CAR PERFORMANCE is a registered business name in QLD - BN18279363 (thats its number)

* ABN: 88 412 001 676 (found on policy page) is registered as HORSEPOWERINABOX.COM / RPM PERFORMANCE CENTRE and registered by TIMOTHY D & NADINE B POSSINGHAM. Business located in SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

* ABN: 81 718 416 027 (found on contact us page) is registered as MAXIMUM CAR PERFORMANCE / Xtreme Car Performance by MATHEW DILLON.

Now, I beleive that he has just copied his policy shit off horsepower in a box hence why he has 2 abn's.

That 2nd ABN seems like the correct one. Quick look in the phone book under DILLON in Elanora showed quite a few listings, so cant help you there sorry.

um, hope some of that helps

Mathew Dillon registered xtremecarperformance.com.au through Melbourne IT using the second ABN in dAVE's above post.

At the time of registration, he was an iPrimus.com.au (ISP) customer. His username was/is 'mdill'.

But eBay should be able to give you his home address and fixed line telephone number, assuming he gave them to eBay when he signed up for their service in the first instance.

Edit: Oh, and his web-site is hosted through Magic-Moments.com.au.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
