emailed him late last night and got a reply today saying "its very unusal for it to take this long to arrive, and he would suss it out and geet back to me tomorrow" fingers crossed all works out.

Keep me posted on how you go - there may be genuine reasons and we will give them the week to get sorted; but hell, it doesn't take much to email people back and say hey I've some problems. If you take peoples money to supply a product that you don't have, then that's not great business sense. I'll keep you up to speed if I ever get my gear

yer couldn't agree more mate.... yea anything that happens or is worth mentioning keep each other posted. cheers

theres no malabar st in roxburgh park

Well that says it all - fake address, no phone listing, bugger all email contact:

Come on guys, someone out there must know where this mob live:

They've used the name "Online Motor Options" - the contact Theresa Holt.

May have also traded as HorsePower Kings"

Had an address of:

10 Malabar Street Roxburgh Park Vic

They have been removed from eBay - that's at least a plus

Come on guys - let's find these characters and get people back their money or goods for which they have already paid.

I'll say one thing though, if you're using the e-mail facility on e-bay...it's 100% dodge, I never receive confirmations etc etc and always have to include an instruction for the sellers to contact another e-mail addy, it's that bad.

As for Australia post losing things...don't get me started on that issue. The most recent thing has been with our mail being redirected to a PO box...now anyone sending stuff to our home addy gets it returned to sender, even though it's a valid address.

I've got things being sent by friends and it's taking months for it to arrive, so I know some of you guys would be getting edgy about strangers sending stuff, but just remember Aus Post is useless at the best of times.

doesn't e-bay have a provision where you send the money and they send the goods and they are both forwared on when both parties have fulfile there part of the deal??

As for paying total amounts on unseen goods, thats just stupid. put down a 10% deposit and they have to hold it for you. Especially if the goods aren't in the country.

if your not happy, go and get your money back. if they don't want too hand it back, put small claims onto them.

my 2c

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

Well guys - just to let you all know that I have still not received my piping from this Online Motor Options group and today will start the legal process. Be aware that a person was recently jailed for 18 months for advertising something on eBay that they did not have and accepted the money from 3 buyers. This is a very serious offence to take peoples money and not supply what you paid for. Be careful - both sellers and buyers.

they also have the highest rate of sales of all internet sites i would say...

I have just received an email from a mate involved in a Commodore web group saying that they have a couple of fellows who paid for an Intercooler kit from this mob and haven't received anytthing yet. Sounds like Police or Consumer Affairs is the next port of call for these mongrels if they don't come to the party.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
