(My first post!)

Recently, police have raided several dodgy Japanese Import dealers found tampering with odometers. Amongst those dealers, and possibly the worst of them all was Edward Lees, the self-proclaimed "Australia's Number 1 Import dealer" that has a reputation for being extra dodgy. Well, the snotfaced owner, Phil Lee, has decided to change the name of the business to Sun Rise Cars (sunrisecars.com.au) to avoid unwanted attention. They're already posting advertisements on Carsales, and are currently selling the "Best Fairlady Zed in the country". Beware.

Congrats on your first post! but being a party pooper there are already 2 or 3 other posts on SAU about Edwardo Lee's Mcsuckbag...

I was there last week and the same knob with the same attitude. He reckons they could source us a R34 GTR V Spec II for $66k with a 42,000kms hahah what a clown. The business name is still Edward Lees on the site but the business cards and the paper work all says "Sun Rise Cars Pty Ltd" and he only had 25 cars in the yard and mostly the VW Kombi's.

Very legit business and legit km's guys....LOL

Did not think it would take Phil long to get back at winding back, he is a survivor.

The dumb crap about this is, he will get away with it and go on his merry way laughing :)

Our company laws seem stuffed or very slow to act and these blokes can just about do what they want?

I walked in one morning, only because I was next door looking a bali huts. It took the bloke no longer than 5 mins to start spinning off random bullshit about this particular 32 I was standing at.

"We also import genuine low kms GTR's" I just remember shrugging my shoulders and walking off.

Quite often, extracted duct tape will have a good fingerprint impression on it.

I wonder if anyone thought of checking that.

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
