Hey.

Sorry to hear.

I did some googling.

He also goes by the tags of TYGER and PP_082.

This is his ebay account.. it might lead you somewhere, you could get his home/postal address pretty easily. http://myworld.ebay.com.my/pp_082/

If you google his mobile number it seems he has been at it for awhile, selling numerous different cars and parts.

Did you bank deposit him the 6k and he never sent you the stuff?

no he has told me im not allowed to have the gearbox anymore as i wanted to pick it up in person and this was not acceptable to him.I was only allowed to buy it if i put the $12000 in his account and then he would send it ???????.He has now told me he has "deemed" the contract void even though i will do anything to get my gearbox,and he has awarded himself my $6000 as "costs".His exact words i have 123 text messages from him in my phone.

i bought a head($1500) of him ages ago, i felt like i was getting ripped at one point but it was all good, he just doesnt keep in contact.. mercury motorsport knows him well i think and was a middle man for myself and Ben.

i tried to get him on the phone numerous times and he wouldnt answer, but after i spoke to the fella at mercurys all was good.

hope it works out man.

Have you paid entire 12k for the gearbox? Why would he send you a gearbox if you haven't paid for it? I have had many successful dealings with 555kkk and I am sure that he is not ripping you off. Sounds like there is more to this story than you are letting on!

mercuryimports under wat circumstances does that farknut have the right to say hes going to keep gtr30beast's 6 grand as costs? costs for what? for sending messages?

If he is not happy with how the transaction is happening, he should have the farkn decency to refund the guy his 6k. says alot bout a workshop when they condone such scams.

hope you get your money back buddy.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
