if any of you have read the max car performance thread you know that i got ripped off by some guy named matthew dillon. im posting up again to ask a few more questions. does australia have anything like the better business bureau? you know some organization i could turn to to help me clear this up. would the cops do anything about it? if so could somebody give me the phone number of a local station? $1000us is a lot of cash and i really cant afford to just give up on it. if worse comes to worse im going to fly down there and find this dude. any help you all could give me would be greatly appreciated.

thanks guys

Clay,

Each state in Australia has a Dept of Fair Trading (Queensland) or similar names in other states. Which state did this villian Dillon supposedly reside in?

Let us know and I am sure that someone will be able to give you the contact details or you could search under each State governments web-sites for the relevent department. Failing all that try our Federal Police.

Don't give up mate as worms like this give scrupulous traders a bad name.

Cheers

Murray

Refer to the thread below in regards to information on Maximum Car Performance.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...&threadid=26793

The local police stations around the area are:

  • Runaway Bay - Morala Ave 4216 (07) 5537 5099 (probably the closest to Labrador)
    Surfers Paradise - 68 Ferny Ave 4217 (07) 5570 7888
    Southport - 96 Scarborough St 4215 (07) 5571 4222

To dial this = international access number + 61 + 07 + 5537 5099

maybe try the ACCC, they deal in this sort of dodgy stuff, but worst comes to worst, call a guy up called 'Ray Martin' he has a show called A current affair, and it shows dodgy buisness men all the time, harrasses them, and they give your moeny back instead of being on tv as being dodgy.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
