OMFG Marc, I have been on here 2 months longer than you, but have almost 30,000 less posts.... You need to stop taking on Work experience kids.. Or get another Skyline to work on

SHORT VERSION 15.12.2010:

- Member of PF was selling 2nd hand headers

- Everyone went WTF

- Wayne Besanko continued to threaten legal action and said he would respond by 8am Queensland time

Ganked from PF which is back up again.

  • 2 weeks later...

ahahaha, if you search "powerchip" guess what is now the 3rd result........

It has dropped, was second last night when I tried it, any good reputation they had before this had disappeared, the only people that will buy them now is toss pots who should be driving a daihatsu Mira.

Hopefully the judge will see that wayne was the one that started this incident in a public forum where he had no control over what damage may/has arisen from his "i have too much time on my hands" bull shit.

He has no links at all to car graphic so all the legal threats he threw out there were never tangeable.

The posting of the private emails wont do him any favours though.

Why would you buy a powerchip after reading autospeeds article.

Theor R & D is done on a shoe tring if any.

Julian Edgar's questions are not hard to follow but this guy is struggling.

As for him getting involved with the performance forum issue............why did he bother??? He should be testing his chips :nyaanyaa:

Well that's it, I'm not that familiar with commercial law, but what Wayne will be standing on, if anything, is the damage to his company's reputation and the supposed harassment...that is, if you can attribute it to fault on part of the guy who posted the emails. I sincerely doubt he'll bring up the original legal issue he had with the classified ad, there are bigger (and more tangible) things to sue for now. Hopefully judge/magistrate acknowledges that Powerchip's reputation has come about for reasons other than solely the release of the private emails.

Agreed but he's not exactly a tower of intellect either...

Dear Mr. Nazi mod/admin,

Why did my thread get deleted after only a few hours, while this thread has been going for 3 days?

Pretty average form IMO.

AutoSpeed Interview: Powerchip's Wayne Besanko - Part 1

Hole. E. Crap.

Thats seriously bad.

Does PF have mods???? If any of our aforementioned "Nazi mods" saw that sort of carry on here no one would be on the forums for 10 days, and after editing the only part of each post left would be "Wayne Besanko"

Huh? What does that say? Maybe my eyes are getting old, but I dont understand.

Agreed but he's not exactly a tower of intellect either...

hahaha. Poor Wayne.

    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
