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 would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
