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.

TL:DR... Cliffs?

SHORT VERSION 15.12.2010:

- Member of PF was selling 2nd hand headers

- 8am deadline passed, haven't heard from Wayne Besanko

- FINALLY, 9 hours after given time, Wayne Besanko told original PF member with advertisement, to stop editing his Wiki page or there will be more legal action

- PF noob bashing begins

- Wayne Besanko sends racist and sexually derogatory email to original PF member laughing about how Wayne Besanko "has him" and he can't post this email online otherwise he is violating his Intervention Order

- Wayne Besanko doesn't realise contacting original PF member has already violated the Intervention Order on his part and will look poorly against him in court, not to mention lying in the Police report (as issues with the Intervention Order)

- Original PF member posts email online and collects some great evidence to use against Wayne Besanko

- Original PF member announces that his 2nd hand headers are sold

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.

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.

      Wheel refurb?

      The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.

      Pops when backing off throttle, rough-ish sound through rev range.

      Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.

      It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....

      Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
