Someone beat you to it but I think they're still in denial.

Cars with no De-reg papers etc and there are people still sticking up for the scum...

Boils my blood!

I really should open up a restaurant or something, cut corners and when people get sick or I get shut down by the Dept. of health, I'll just put on the forums/facebook that the food was there on consignment.

Edited by me_larr

Anyone notice it was a Rex that got wound?

Most unlikely to be an import. I wonder if their BS excuses that "it got done in japan, not under my control" make it hard for the prosecutors?

Wasn't there someone trying the validity of de-reg certs in the courts?

Last reply on EvoOz copy and pasted..

But further reading on FB someone said this

I heard about the car in question, it was there on consigment and joe got f**ked over for it, and copt the blame. Wasnt a car he brought in

That's good. Their done and dusted :D

Monetary compensation appears minimal though

The person who took Honda to court for the 3.5L burning oil only received $1000 for his 'time and effort' even after Honda 'fudged' their oil consumption 'tests' which was also proven in court.

So sick of these people getting a slap on the wrist.

$3670 is diddley squat

However hopefully this haunts and follows them in what ever business endeavours they do next.

On 19 June 2014 Ms Xeneli’s motor vehicle dealers licence was cancelled and she was disqualified from the industry for four years. Her new company's licence, for Japanese Imports, was also cancelled.

Motor vehicle repairers and motor dealers licences for Zeneli Pty Ltd, which is now in liquidation, have been cancelled and the company has been permanently disqualified.

The company’s current director, Joseph Dib, has also been disqualified for four years.

Consignment mishandling has brought a few dealers undone I believe.

They would have made enough GP to cover all those fines from the sale of about 3 cars. Ridiculous.

Couldn't find the EvoOz post either.

I have heard that another dealer is about to be done....

Thanks.

Well to see this industry cleaned up will be a blessing; not to mention the preservation of the values of our investments!

That was me that posted that and it wasn't being blind it was me not wanting to flame them without having all the info and I never actually said I believed the quote I found on Facebook I simply said that I also saw someone had said that and later said it was what I read but who knows if it is true or not

Now having read more it seems they were dodgy and I have responded further to that thread on EvoOz showing that info.

Let's hope we can get dodgy bastards like this out of the industry for good. I bought my evo 8 from sports auto group before I knew better and after hearing some of the bad stories about them I was pretty lucky with mine as mine is in really good condition both body and mechanically wise

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
