You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Saving for house = stick with 16 year old Nissan

Okay.jpg

This. So tempting to quit and splash out on something awesome. Ignore ignore ignore.

As for salesmen...I think a lot try the hard ball tactic of "you're a time waster / can't afford to buy this" so that some people with dented egos get suckered into proving them wrong. I don't like it, but can't say it doesn't work every once in a while...it's pretty much how my dad overpaid for his house when the real estate agent / car salesman told him he couldn't afford what the owners were asking for it.

Real estate agent = glorified car salesman?

I'm sure once you flop your business card the bullshit stops and they take your more seriously?

my step dad told me a story about when he worked for anz in the 60's a very scruffy guy came in and wanted to invest some money and my step dad took him into the office and the guy wanted to invest 100K - a few days later he went to a merc dealership, asked how much they wanted for a certain car and they pretty much told him 'too much, you wouldnt be able to afford it' so a few weeks went past and he came back to the same dealership and asked to speak to the same guy, still being treated like shit he told the guy to come have a look at his car out the front.. he had just come from another mercedes dealership with the same car, and behind that another one the same for his wife..

would of been a pretty big slap to the guys ego..

Nah never drop my business card but to be honest if they had half a clue they should work out I've got the money for it.. I give enough clues

Had same problem buying my Lexus at 22.. Nobody takes ya seriously even when I bought my tag watch only the tag store helped me out other jewellers wouldn't let me touch one

Probably through my own experience i never judge anyone or think they can't afford something cos I know the shit I've put up with

Haha nice story.

In my opinion, at the end of the day you are there for a transaction and not to test other people's morals, ethics, character judgement etc. if they are resistant/hesitant just move onto their manager who hopefully has more clue.

The business card is just an easy way to show that you are employed and can support a loan. Also, they can't say no as you have the potential dollars for the purchase.

And that's when you joyride the hell out of the car and move on :P

If I ever win the lotto I'll walk into a Ferrari dealership dressed like I normally dress, in trackies etc

If they act like cocks and lose the sale, I'll drive past in my new lambo and give em a wave

Come to my house afterwards

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      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)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. 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...
