it was unintentionally champ.

i didnt know there was a difference between the 2 aspirations as i was going to put it on my skyline i got sold the part thinking it was suitable for mine

who ever said anything about $50

Boys,

I'm the one that bought the airbox, it was advertised as an r33 gtst airbox with snorkel, paid $110 delivered. What I received in the mail was an n/a airbox... Its not relevant whether he thought it was for a turbo, he wasn't sure and sold me the wrong product ( false advertising) i think by law I'm entitled to a refund.. What do u think ??

Goods not as advertised - you should get your money back.

BTW I am amazed at the prices. Just bought two sets of RB26 airbox and snorkel for $5. You could have one set for the price of postage ($40 or $50 at a guess) if its any good to you (probably not as it has two afm holes).

before seeing.. just deposit money into his account and he posted the item. he had a pic, it showed the three pieces, i presumed they were for a gtst because thats what it was advertised as

That was your first problem...you shouldn't blindly transfer money like that to someone that isn't a registered business. You have no recourse if someone decides to run off with you money, let alone post the wrong part...some scumbags on here just do the former.

I never told the guy i wasnt refunding the money so im not sure why everyone is making assumptions like these

instead of him demanding the money back and saying he has no use for it he could of used his manners and asked politely. Hes been ringing me ever since the other day busting my balls about this. Ive just paid my personal loan and i got another 3.5k on top of my loan not going to start adding figures.. There was a photo of this he knew what he was buying, if someone advertised a toyota camry as a corolla and you bought it as a corolla thats the buyers responsibility to decide what the item is

He can wait until i got the money to refund it and if hes going to make physical threats towards me and threaten me he can come get it out of my hands face to face

I called you on the day I got it saying it was the wrong part.. U did have one pic of it but not of the bottom ( the bit that is diff' between n/a and turbo).. Which didnt matter at the time, coz it waz meant to be a gtst box. I did not bust ur balls, I waited for ur pay day, reminding u a few times, then the day after u said u'll pay me u didn't answer ur fone at all, not even a text.. If u want to see me face to face, u cum see me. All I want is my money back.. It's simple.. Ur airbox is boxed ready to go. It's not my problem u don't hav the cash, if ur going to pay me.. Then answer ur fone and we'll work it out.

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
