Grrrr what is it with people on the forums selling stuff with comments like 'its the complete kit' and 'everything is there' ... you shell out your hard-earned, it arrives - and find out it isn't all there ....

... and when you explain how it isn't there, show pics of what you recieved, against what you should have they say 'well I got it off a mate - I never used it - he said it was all there - I can't offer you a refund'.

Uhhh wut? How is his not knowing what he has suddenly my problem? He represented a product as something it wasn't which is a clear breach of the Fair Trading act. I really hope I don't have to take this to small claims to get my money back. The item clearly wasn't as described, so I've easily got a case, but ugh - so much trouble - especially interstate.

What a frustrating and expensive experience :rofl:

Nope, you should be fine. There should be a grub screw on the relocator that you can tap into for the sender unit

Does using a lawyer to dispute a fine to keep your license count?

Because I used Michael Woods lawyers. They specialize in traffic law/getting your license back. Pricey, but they got me through.

I'll give them a call,

Can you PM me with what you went through and rough price on what the whole thing ended up costing you?

i got nfi what I'm up for LOL. 2 weeks into no license, 50 weeks to go - its doing my head in!

what a jip.

bought $1800 worth (incl. shipping fee) of goods, sent on pallet via boat from a japanese port to adelaide

had to pay all up an extra $1100 to get the goods released.

what a jip. so many fees and charges to receive a shipment Id paid for.

on that note - DO NOT buy a roll cage overseas.

unless they cut the main bar, you need to ship it.

but because I had the cage, i added mags, cams, more parts

to make it worth my while. but fees from the docks is outrageous. they hold you to ransom.

if in didnt pay the release fee they'd hold the goods (storage fees) then dispose of and still bill me.

Is your sandwich plate billet or cast? you need the thick billet ones to fit a pressure sender unit.

Surely he could tap into any oil line with a t piece and then run a gauge off that? Pascals law says "pressure exerted anywhere in a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid."

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
