Dead right. TOTALLY USELESS.

Sent an Power Fc to a Perth address via registered mail, insurance, the whole bit. Never heard back.

Did my own tracking and found it had been delivered, hopefully to the correct address. So I got cranky and asked what guarantee did I get for the big bucks.

--NOTHING--

Disgusted at their response offering me back, the cost of a stamp to notify that the item had been delivered.

ALSO just sent an A4 envelope to GTSt25 in Italy- cost $38.

Guaranteed anywhere in the world in 4 days max. Took 3 weeks.

I'll use couriers from now on.

I've used australia post for probably close to 100 items, never had a problem.

A lot of people label stuff incorrect, have shithouse handwriting, don't provide a return address, package poorly, etc, etc. Wouldn't surprise me its people's own fault half the time.

Oh yeah I hate them too

Got a part for my KTM sent over from Melbourne after searching everywhere for one. Its the only spare in the country. The shop did the right thing, registered it and all. EXPRESS, so it should have bee here in 2 days max.

3 weeks later I rang up the shop got the reg number. Australia post were less then helpful, said they'd never heard of that number and to take it up with the shop.

Basically the shop got shitty, got compensation from Australia post and thus re paid me.

Not happy, I now have to order the part from KTM which is a 2.5 month wait from Austria :D

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By R32 TT · Posted

      Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.

      Coolant leak?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
