I've been a happy customer of Xtreme Motorsport because there was absolutely no proof that my...

had been wound back. :P

I was so happy, I went back and bought...

Srsly, this thread is all innuendo. Without proof on either side, it'll go nowhere.

We are still here guys.

That car is genuine and I personally guarantee that it didnt have 184,000kms.

Its good to see that we have 1 post wonders on here and keyboard warriors from other dealers still trying to shut down the legitimate dealers.

This car has full service history, log books and De Reg Certificate and funny enough we just took a deposit on it pending finance.

I suppose the service history and Japanese De-Reg certificate is not enough proof? Lol...:)

A BIG THANK YOU to those that support us.

This is going to be a long post - so strap in folks.

Do you homework friends !

DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK - AND DO IT PROPERLY, NOT A HALF-ASS JOB - FOOL.

KayneX - Why would anyone want to do re-badged odometer checks via your link - a website tainted with hypocrisy? Go direct to the source to use this genuinely fantastic service.

Ok - now down to business:

1) let's take a look at this Evo 7 - recently up on carsales.com.au (http://www.carsales.com.au/dealer/details/Mitsubishi-Lancer-2001/AGC-AD-14170113/?Cr=13&sdmvc=1)

The car has become 'not available' - hopefully not sold! Fortunately I have a screenshot of the ad as it was on Saturday 10th August (click to view full size):

Note the VIN number - it ends in 3809. You can find the same car here on the dealer website - note that the complete VIN is not posted on this website but the last 4 digits are. Website says 62,160kms

2 - let's see if we can confirm a mode of operation - last 4 digits of the VIN are always accurately represented on the dealer website. Check the blue Stagline - very unique, last 4 digits of VIN = 1286, website says 107,084kms

3 - One more before the clincher - white E51 Elgrand - VIN ends in 9204, website says 80,513kms:

So we have established a clear mode of operation - now for the original vehicle and subject of this thread - VIN ends with: 7066, website says 84,702kms

Someone seems pretty confident their de-reg certs will back them - how is this possible? At a guess I would refer to this post: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/430241-hyprocrisys-a-bitch-aint-it-the-truth-about-kilometers/?p=6973008

That car is genuine and I personally guarantee that it didnt have 184,000kms.

100% agree on the 184,000kms but we need to define "genuine".

PS. of course I have screenshots of the dealer website.

We are living in the digital age, so to all the importers reading this - it is way too easy for your actions to be backtraced now.

Either start advertising your cars for exactly what they are, or I am sure this will continue to happen!!!!

And immaculate or very clean aren't terms that should be used for an R grade sh*t bucket from Japan.

Facepalm,

Then please explain the information montage dodgyimports just dropped...?

At some point this needs to stop being nothing more than a bunch of forum threads, and move to the prosecution of those who routinely and systematically engage in this fraudulent activity. It's even more ridiculous when it stops being a odometer haircut on an otherwise reasonable car, and moves to accident grade examples with forged service histories and dereg certificates.

Anyway, this looks like another rubbish accident grade example tarted up and flogged off as "very clean". Hopefully Joe from Xtreme Motorsports can come and clear up what must be just a misunderstanding...

Gotta love the internet and SAU..good read indeed!

Thanks to the guys "dodgyimports" for going out of their way to name and shame the offenders and protect the community

You'd have to say that buying through one of the services such as Iron Chef, JLM, Prestige, J Spec etc would have to be safer AND cheaper than buying from a dealer in Aus. That way you'll see the genuine auction sheet pre purchase as well as receive the dereg etc.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
