Make a few fake facebooks and stalk him?

Try find his facebook or just add all of the guys with his name. Might take a few months to finally get his address and stuff

Make sure you fake Facebook has a few friends before you add him as well

WOW.

10/10 for being persistent! But fair to say if anyone here got ripped that much they'd keep looking too.

You have his account no's, phone number, name, face-book, SAU profile, and a photo, and the police "can't do anything"?

Try find his rego and lodge multiple reports of him doing skids, that'll find him in under a week on national news.....

I'd try the cops again, the huge swing towards online shopping in the last 5 years have caused the coppers to become much more internet savvy and aware of problems, it is no longer a fringe thing. I rekon if you take it to them again there might be a better chance it will get dealt with more seriously.

very fitting that his FB profile is that of a dog..

is probably aware of the scrutiny on here and alert to fake FB accounts trying to add him, scammers are pretty careful about who they let into their inner circle. Just bought something of a bloke with only a few posts and no online presence so i have jitters but he offered a local pick up if i wanted so should be ok..fingers crossed.

let us know if u find out where the guy is, u will have plenty of back up if you need, doubt the cops tune will change much or suddenly be useful as chunky lover hopes.

looks like the BSB 302973 belongs to: Bank of Western Australia (BWA) or Bankwest, owned by CBA.

Address: 345 George street, Sydney

and an ad of the mobile number for sale (note: not sure if this could be the person, as many telco's like to recycle phone numbers)

good luck

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
