Todd at JapLink - Haberfield, has just put the word out that a Silver R34 GT-R Nur might make its appearance on a car lot soon.

He has essentially warned our club members and friends that one should stay away from this car.

Apparently it has been purchased by a dealer along P'matta Rd, but he hasn't been able to fathom which dealership.

PM me about its history if you or your friend come across it and are tempted.

More info may have arrived since my post huys; so I'd email Adam at JapLink Motors www.japlinkmotors.com.au to identify the bad seed

If I have some time, I might also go down there tomorrow to check too.

Thanks Terry.. Just wondering as the so called car I have been dreaming about all these years and worked my arse off to finally get, mind you paying a heafty price tag has turned out to be a nightmare.. Not mechanically (I wish it was!) and I don't know which path to go down now?? Legal or just cop it and fix it? Anyways, that's why I'm curious as to what dealer it was/is at? to see if they are selling more dodgy cars and to warn potential buyers.. :(

That car is sure to be a shitbox. That seller from Haymarket buys and sells heaps of cars and every single car he advertises has km's that are rolled backwards stupidly obvious.

I first came across him last year when looking for an exotic. He goes by the name of Jimmy, James,jack, van, qui...etc... I got a PPI done on a 360 of his, he said it was only 12000km old, no accidents etc, turned out to have had 65000km and had been in a serious front ender.

More recently he advertised a gallardo with 26000km on carsales, after 2 months it didn't sell. The car went off carsales for a month and then reappeared (same car, same photos, different description, different name, different mobile number, same suburb) at now only 9000km Milage on it. Import documents show the car came to Australia 2nd hand with 33000 miles (not km's) on it. That private seller is a crook and a half.

Beware of this dodgy private car seller. He uses many aliases but it is pretty easy to figure out if a seller is him just by the way the ads are written. He is Vietnamese.

So did anybody end up finding out who had this car on there lot or end up actually seeing it?? Please pm me with the details of the dealer so I know for future reference.. Cheers guys.,

OK.

This car is out or coming out at either of these two yards...

but I'll let you fill in the dots.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
