Got Dooped By A Gtr Owner In Endevour Hills Anyone Know Where He Lives?


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I recently threw $500 deposit on a guys 33 gtr vspec in midnight purple located in endeavour hills

registration ZKV649

Guys name is TAREK KANDAKJI

phone number is 0432 282 125

Sale was all good, was organising a trucking quote to get it shipped to me, then he called to say he took it to wash it and engine started making a knocking noise on the drive home, i.e. he was raping it and it spun a bearing, I was gutted and he said he would drop the price by $2000 or I could have my deposit back.

I consulted my mechanic knowing they are expensive to work on, he said flag it and get money back.

old mate said, no worries money will be back in your account by the end of week.

no news for a while, give him a call no answer, and now no answer at all.

disappearing act.

this was all before Christmas, did a vin check etc. car was all good.

have pics on my phone

anyway, police wont do anything, but I have mates in Melbourne who are more than happy to go say hi and reclaim my funds

If anyone could pass on his address, would be much appreciated.

cheers Xavier

As much as the guy sounds like a douche bag, and I'm sorry to hear about your experience, I doubt that even if anyone did know the guy they'd pass on his address!

Having said that, a quick look on whitepages shows there's not too many people with that surname in Melbourne (that are listed), and Google maps shows they're not far from Endeavour Hills. Maybe get your mate to drive past the addresses and see if there's an R33 GTR parked out the front.

FYI I enquired about this car a while back, rebuilt by Rajab with "bigger bore clearances" which according to Tarek caused a rattle at cold start because "forged pistons do that".
On top of that my mate knew the history of the car and knew Tarek bought it for cheap as it had been crashed.

Cheers guys, yeah if anyone could help it would be much appreciated, seemed like a good dude, helpfull as and then once he rooted the engine and I decided against it he went quiet and haven't heard anything since, an address is all I need, can sort the rest from there,

cheers again.

tarek the tosser..

Hey mate, Tarek isn't part of Skylines Australia but he is part of the Owners Club on respective facebook pages - I'm sure he'll sort things out with you. Sounds odd for him cos he's a pretty straight guy and real nice too.

    • 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.
    • 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
    • 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...
