I recently purchased an Intercooler kit on eBay through Online Motor Options - the email contact has the name Theresa. I have received the Intercooler but I'm still waiting on the piping some 4 weeks since I paid for the kit. Is there anyone out there who can give me some contact details (phone number, location etc) of this group - Online Motor Options so I can find out what's going on. Any details appreciated.

PS: More than happy with the quality of the Intercooler although getting more than a little worried about delivery or lack of delivery of the piping, hoses etc.

Please help if you have any contact details

I hope it wasn't just a picture with the piping then in the fine print it says "cooler only"

Nearly been caught out myself on stuff like that

No - the ad was clearly for the Intercooler and full mandrel bent alloy piping, hoses and clamps - I guess I just hope it eventually turns up caus' my emails sent to them have gone unanswered - again anyone who has a phone contact to Online Motor Options who I believe are in Roxburgh Park in Vistoria it would be appreciated

Does he have a rating??

Is he replying to any emails?

the group appear to have a resonable rating with generally good feedback (limited numbers) however I'm not getting and feedback to emails sent - that is whu I'm trying to get a phone contact - Online Motor Options in Victoria - help

Send an email every day, you can report them as well through Ebay.

When did you last here from them??

Keep on parsisting, it will eventually come through

i bought a strat bar off them and got an email from her they knowingly sent me the wrong size strut bar

dodgey

Aaron,

Did you get the correct strut bar?? Did you get any reply from her or this Online Motor Options group?

I have sent a complaint to eBay and hopefully have some form of reply tonight.

I have also heard that Online Motor Options were aklso trading under another name on eBay also - be very careful

Again - anyone with any details on this group - please let me know. Their last known address was in Roxburgh Park, Victoria

when i delt with them i emailed her and asked for their shop number before i started blasting them because from the emails that they sent they knew that a batch might have been under sized.

when i read that i rang them up and abused the sh[t out of them they did end up giving me a full refund including both ways postage though so the only thing i lost was some time and sanity

I cant remember the name but thier shop is thier other trading name if you can get thier number ring up telsra and get the info like address from the number and the name at the address and threaten them with fair trading and other gov departments that scare businesses

all my probs ended up being resolved

I think that the fact that they haven't replied to any emails suggests that the piping is more than likely not coming. I agree with everyone else when they say to contact Ebay ASAP. The longer you let it go on, the lower the chances you have of a positive resolution.

As for contacting them, try finding their ABN. Fair trading or the ATO should give you all their contact details if you provide them with this.

thanks all for replies - I have contacted eBay abd they appear to no longer be registered with them - the Group was called "Online Motor Options" or may have also traded under "Horsepower Kings" - if anyone has a phone number please let me know - these names and the name Theresa Holt was was the contact is not listed by Telstra. Sounds liked they've ripped and gone. Beware fellas

Gidday mate,

I received an email from this user only yesterday to say that the rest of my kit is or should be posted within a few days. That was the first email after unsucessfully trying for one and half weeks, and over a month since I paid for the full kit. I have a name and address, but Telstra indicate that they have no listing for this name and address - maybe if you know someone in Melbourne they could slip past and check it out. I'll let you know if I get anything, but my dad has already spoken to his lawyer mate who said he chase it up if nothing arrives - after taking your money and not supplying what you pay for is fraud. here's what I have anyway

T Holt

10 Malabar Street

Roxburgh Park

Victoria

apparenty 20 kms outside Melbourne

PS: Told me that eBay made a stuff up with their account - yeh right

u rekn thats bad..

i bort a gtr engine start of november from a shop in aust and was told it would be here be4 christmas. It still hasnt even been shipd! They never answer their emails and hardly answer there phone. Funy they used to be4 they got my money.

Yeah, that sucks. I guess it all goes to prove that if something is too good to be true (or too cheap??), then most probably it is. Even though I have bought stuff off ebay before, I am just waiting for the same thing to happen. I usually try to avoid buying stuff sight unseen. Who knows what you're buying if you can't actually see it?? I bet if these guys were locals, and had you guys on their doorstep every day, it would be harder to ignore than clicking delete on their email.

Guess some people are just out to take advantage of others. :) Hope these a*seholes get what's coming to them. :kick:

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
