VWL legal team... i need your help.

Just moved of house, agent is trying to take $200 out of my bond for cleaning (that was then cleaned by the owners). she has photo evidence of the items:

one is for mould on window sills of 3 rooms (barely visible)

section of uncleaned skirting boards.

inside edge of dishwasher not wiped clean

rim around 2 stove burners not clean.

I think its unreasonable because stove and washing machine were brand new 22 months ago (when we moved in) and that they expect it to be in the same condition... but it doesnt stop someone from renting it, therefore its not worthy to detract from bond. Especially since it affects my rental history majorly.

oh and i forgot to add that there were weeds down the side of the house i forgot to remove. all up would take half a day of work and some scrubbing for stovetop.

also note that house has been on the market for a few weeks now and has not been filled, had 2 inspections a week plus price drop and i dont think theres any takers.

I should have known

I should rock out with some 20" SSR professors, dat coin doe. Need 'fake' ones.

Half a days work... I'd be pretty happy they're only taking $200..

the house has no grass or weeds or plants when we moved in...so backyard/side of house is bare. we were the first tenants.

i tried being reasonable and said $100 for the stuff i'd missed. if the owners did it in their own time, they dont earn cleaning rates. different if they got it professionally done and provided a receipt.

they ignored my offer for what I thought was reasonable and just said "please reply agreeing to the $200 so we can submit the return of your bond"

saw your car on VSKF's in 19....

looked TITS

will be bloody hard to get them in those sizes for $2k though

I'm almost tempted to try 20s again though.

Sound like fussy owners over a bit of mould and some weeds.

Don't know enough about real estate but there's prolly $200 of profession work in it with weeding and mucking around with that shit. Was it like that when you moved in / in the property report? Have you done any extra (not required of tenant) maintenance for the place in your own time?

Next time give a kid $20 to do it for you

Oh and buy a Beko they're farkin great

Leigh, if you go 20's are grippy tyres available at reasonable prices? Or would moving to really low profile 20's going to cost you an extra $1k in tyres over the next 2 years due to 'rare tyre sizes'?

Why not spend half the day doing all that stuff rather than paying the $200?

I cant because the owners have already done it after she tells me about it (and after she took photos).

i know $200 is pretty small, but the mould and stove is petty shit. and I am tempted to throw in the towel, but it means that they can get away with an extensive list of little shit + one/two issues and guarantee a win regardless of going through the tribunal or not.

f**k em. its already wasted enough of my time. im FIFO bitch.

The 20's suit that car well as the arches are HUUUUUGE, but those rims look aids... rears are OK but fronts suck the wang

Rodney Jane called, he wants his wheels back

lol BUUUUUUUUUUUURN

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
