Well Austrai and Australia are right next to each other in the droplist and believe it or not Austria also has 4 digit postcodes..Its not until the parcel gets to Austria that someone looks at the actual street address and realizes its in the wrong place. And considering 3 or more language changes have been done by then I would say yes its probably suite an easy mistake to make..

Also ETD or ESTIMATED TIME OF DELIVERY is exactly that, estimated. There is not many guarantees with the postal system only insurances..trucks crash, boats sink and planes fall out of the sky..

Look you are free to get on the internet and slander his business if you are not happy..But in doing so you also leave yourself open to the readers discression of whether or not your complaints are justified and I am not convinced yet that they are I'm sorry..

I for one received a great service and a quick look at his store tells me nearly 3000 others have as well..Its true nearly 1% have been dissatisfied, but one you take honest mistakes and troublemakers out of the equation it appears to me a good service is to be expected from them..

There is a difference between delayed postage and delaying postage. My problem was with the latter. I paid as soon as i clicked by now, i waited patiently for 2 weeks to see or recieve a tracking note as i was told in the product description and also the 2 weeks was the ETD. After this period i emailed them asking where it was, i was then told "sorry for the wait" here is the tracking number it will leave this afternoon and be there in 3 days.

It left there 3 days after he said it would and took another 7 days to arrive.

So is that it getting delayed in the post? Or them not sending it in time? I think neutral feedback was justified in this case as they took a long ass time to send it once they had recieved my money and now im being "blackmailed" into changing it to positive or else im blocked? Seems to me poor business practice.

True, and it's your decision.

I don't know why ebay sellers expect 100% positive feedback these days, no business practice is perfect. There are always a few mess-ups, and its how they are dealt with that makes you a good business imo.

I just checked out his recent feedback... It seems that most people give feedback saying that delivery is really fast and a very few slightly delayed.

I have a funny feeling that delivery that is delayed is because items are advertised while not being in stock and have to be made. He most likely just needs some better stock control/monitoring and control systems put in place.

Probably good advice for anyone keen on purchasing to send him a message or email (and if you email he will probably give you a better price) to check availability and postage before you buy rather than relying on ebays generic postage times.

I did this, waited 2 weeks and never got a reply as I didn't want anti surge, gave up waiting and got one of ebay anyway.

For anyone interested I'm getting closer to fruition with my setup. Will be ordering the 20G soon (again unless Jez convinces me otherwise)

Block has been bored, honed, decked. Matched to pistons.

86.5mm CP pistons purchased

Oil pump checked and OK

Tomei Poncams 256/256 for non vct ordered and on their way

BC single springs and Ti retainers ordered and on their way

Need to send crank away and match bearings (local builder so no biggie)

Head will be sent for a quick secret squirrel once the springs and retainers come back (locally again, they drop off and pick up for me so all good)

Need to buy an S14 VRS kit, new balancer, ARP head studs and cometic or similar HG - Anyone know the best place to source these locally?

Once the above items are on I'll be getting Mick_O down to fab me some sexy pipes and were off n racing.

use your words very carefully, i am not slandering someone's business, this is what happened.

3000 other people, minus the people who were too afraid to put neutral feedback in case of re-precautions, let a lone people who did put it and were then threatened.

either way, that is not the point, i received a neutral experience due to poor service, yet apparently i'm the one in the wrong for reflecting it within the feedback system which is designed for this exact reason?

I don't see how the seller is responsible for delivery times, even DHL express 1-3 day shipping is only to our shore, not including domestic shipping.

because it's not the delivery that's delayed, they aren't getting sent off until weeks after the purchase, personally mine was sent of about 2 weeks after i bought it, the only reason i chased it up was i was quoted a fairly liberal time frame as is, and i waited until a few days after the latest estimated date, chased it up, and was told it would be sent off the next day...

remember, this was not an issue until he blackmailed me, those defending him need to remember, he was a business trying to blackmail a customer from giving accurate feedback, anyone who defends this practise should be ashamed.

yes like i said it is naive to expect good business after giving him Bad/neutral feedback...

as a general rule if I am not happy with services received and wish to leave bad feedback.. I say nothing until I am damn sure that transaction is complete and i have no need to contact them again....

Im not saying its right, its just the way the ebay system is..

If you truely think you are wronged maybe you should contact ebay with your problem and see what they say..I'd be very interested to see what they say..He has afterall offered a warranty and is obliged to honour that regardless of the feedback you give..

Rondofl ...buy this guys ^^^ turbo and kit,then get a plazmaman plenum and intercooler and Id1000s...

You will have everything you want ;)...now DO EEEETT!!!!

good idea ^^^or just get the ATR43 and off you go...

Its Quick and easy, the sooner its done the less you spend the sooner your driving and the more money you have left for all the types you will need..You've been procrastinating for over a year now, think of all the awesome track time you have missed out on

What injectors you got?

Your crappy cooling pro isn't gunna cope well with the power a T67 will pump out..

    • 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.
