Manko - i understand your frustration i have been through this before, but your going about it the wrong way. Pushing moderators into the limelight is not going to get you anywhere, especially as ther

I never got his name - I just checked his mobile number against the scammers list.

Hey

I'm sorry I can't help out with any other scams, but if you feel as though you have been scammed by "HO YOUNG" - see Ash's post in this link for relevant details

http://www.fordxr5turbo.com/forum/index.php?topic=10253.msg293968#msg293968

If any of the info match this description, there is already a case filed against this man. The police force has told me that this particular person has already done jail time in the past, and is now repeating as he sees this is an easy way to make cash. The best way at the current time to show this guy a lesson is to file a legal statement to the police. If you would like the details of the particular officer, please PM me. She is taking the case very seriously and wishes to bring us back justice. All that is involved is you will be asked to submit your story and sign it. These files will be filed towards the QLD police who will ask him to stand in court. If that fails, it becomes a civil matter. At this point (as I already said in my other post), I will be happy to bring my lawyers in and absolutely rape this guy - force him to sell this damn children to reimburse all that have been cheated.

But your part will be to file those reports :)

I lost half my lunch all over my desk thanks to that line. Well played.

glad it all worked out for u in the end mate. But I do hear your pain about being scammed/duped into handing over money and never receiving the goods.

What I would like to propose to the moderators (from experience on the g35driver.com forums) is that on each ad placed in the "for sale" forum that it is mandatory to place a picture of the item with a placard displaying the forum members user-id and current date. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, but something in whiteboard marker on an A4 placed next to the item and a photo taken so it clearly shows both the item and seller details.

That way ppl can't grab pictures over the internet and claim to possess the items for sale. Sure they will be ppl saying well you can photoshop the details on the photo...but its more a deterent to scammers

Well looks like i totally missed this thread, serves me right for going interstate for a week.

Was wondering how on earth this thread got to 3 pages in the last 24hrs without me noticing.

I echo Blitz statement earlier.

I've spent at LEAST 30hrs in the last 6 months helping users who have been scammed. SAU doesn't have to help - but we try our best within the laws of this country.

Have some respect but more importantly - ensure you engage the brain before you hit "send" on the EFT. We can't save you from yourself.

      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.

      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)?

ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
