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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
