Hey Guys,

Does anybody know if Kristian still runs japaneseimportparts.com ? The slimy scumbag owes a heap of money for banner rotations, on the site it lists a 'Lew' as the manager - has he sold it?

Thanks Guys

oh I should ad though, that from what I understand of the deal Lew didn't buy Kristians liabilities so  Kristian still owes you the money.

If he bought the company he bought the liabilities. If he bought a trading name only :P

yeah, I'm pretty sure it's not a company. just a business. :D:)

Apparently the poor guy that bought it is being harrassed non-stop by people who want their parts/money.

Name one person that has been shafted/ripped off, that have paid money, and not recieved goods ? There are currently 3 or 4 customers that are waiting on deliveries, and a couple of people waiting on refunds, but they are by no means shafted or ripped off.

It appears that most people just assume things, and have no proof to back it up.

BLITZ, name someone that has been shafted ? All people Kristian sold things to either recieve their goods, or a refund. I heard about a guy that bought rims off him, and complained here on SAU that he had been shafted. But what do you know, the $4,000 rims turned up at his house, along with an apology from Japan stating that they were very sorry his custom made rims took so long.

Carlo, he did not dissapear very quick, he sold the business, just because it took a while to get a reciept, how does that mean he dissapeared ? Just because he doesnt advertise on the forum anymore dosnt mean he dissapeared. You got your reciept, yes, you said it took a while, but you recieved it. What is the problem ?

KamikazeR33, Name someone on ALSC that has been shafted ? There is 2 or 3 people that have goods in transit from Japan at the moment, no one has been shafted.

Prank, all you had to do was remind Kristian that he needed to bring the payments up to date for the advertising. I know the sale of the business took alot of time and energy, and he has been very busy helping Lew take over. I also believe email is not the best way to contact him, as he doenst spend as much time on the computer anymore since he sold his .com business

Why dont you just give him a call, and ask him if he can make the payment, as it seems he has forgotten.

It just amazes me that people live their life on a computer, and assume it is the only form of contact. Pick up your phone, give the guy a call instead of hiding behind your computer being a keyboard warrier. I am pretty sure that all you have to do is call him, and and he will be more than happy to make the payment. Sometimes when you are busy a phone call to remind you can just sort everything out.

Prank, after you have called him, let us all know how you go here in this thread as I'm sure we are all interested to find out if he simply forgot, or if he never intends to pay.

I believe his number is 0403218108.

Hey Nissan Owner,

heh, its always funny how people are quick to jump to conclusions and calling people 'keyboard warriors'.

Here is the situation - I did not know that kristian had sold the business until a few days ago. Until this time, I was emailing the address that I had on file (his japimportparts address) and was receiving no response, I emailed over 10 times and have offered to forward al the emails to Kristian since he replied to my last email (sent to his swiftdsl address) this morning.

Also - i have no need to justify myself to you. There was a misunderstanding and I am in discussions with Kristian now to resolve this problem.

Thizzle.... Who are you talking about ? No one gets sold dodgy parts, if there are any problems, and the customer lets me know, they get the problem fixed immediatly, exactly as croat stated in the post above this. Simply stating a part does not work is one thing, but asking for a replacement is what normal people usually do, and the problem will be solved.

Yes Prank, I have a new email address, thats obviously why you were not getting a response from the old one as it went with the business. Payment will be made this week. I'm happy we have cleared this up.

Kristian

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
