Hi guys

I have a problem with nengun, I bought a nismo fuel pressure reg on the 16 july after constantly emailing because my order wasnt progressing. Them they claim it has been sent on the 2 aug it is now the 8th and the ems number doesnt work(never has) and they arnt responding to my emails. I think iv been scammed by nengun. I thought i could trust nengun.

geezuz mate 2 of august was only 3 full working days ago???!!

relax, wait a week, then email again. you are getting all gee'd up over nothing. if you wanted parts really quickly then you should have walked into a performance shop that had it on the shelf. but you wanted cheap so unfortunately that sometimes take a couple of weeks. The EMS tracking number can sometimes take longer than the package to be updated.

It took them 15 days to process a order that seems a bit suspicious to me

What's the overall opinion about Nengun? They have some really nice gear there... but the whole overseas internet thing is still holding me back.

Please feel free to smack me up and put some sense into me...

jeez, calm down..

lol - i had the same problem.. kept trying the ems number (which I don't think ever worked). Took about 6 weeks to get my gear, but only because a couple of items were not available from the supplier. Wasn't really informed this until later though.

They are a little poor on getting back on the emails unless you hassle them, but patience, patience.. You can't expect to order something from overseas and get it right away. If you want that, buy locally. I've never bought anything from overseas that I've needed urgently, there are just too many factors at play (customs speed for one)

NO EMS number means it hasnt been sent out yet

I didn't even get the number, until the package arrived! It took 3 and a half weeks for a turbo timer, which I thought was too long, but I got it before my car anyway so it wasn't a big deal. Also heard a few people got hit with an extra fee for something pretty expensive (like turbos), from customs I think. Heard they are trying to crack down on getting cheap things sent like this instead of going into Australian performance shops. Seems strange, since their would come in the same way, just from someone else.

the ems number is not valid until the item leaves the country, so even if it has been posted the ems number will not always show up.

my pod filter took one month to arrive after i paid, just as an example of how long things can take, so in comparison, you are not doing too bad :D

Jesus, get over it will you? Im waiting on my Trust sump from Nengun and you dont see me starting a thread to bitch about it.

The fact is you opted to try and save dollars by purchasing from Nengun and unfortunately sometimes the parts you order are not in stock with Japanese manufacturers, or there is a delay. Brent is a very busy guy and hes most likely snowed under, give him a break.

The LAST person I would be labelling is a scam artist is someone like Brent who is well established and has been trading for years now with a long list of happy customers.

And for the record, yes EMS tracking sometimes doesnt get activated until the goods are already in your hands, thats nothing to do with Brent. He advised you of the tracking number when it was sent, so YOU could track it via ems.

I have spent over 8g's with nengun. Last package took 2 months from the date I ordered. everything takes time. As it says on the website, you ALWAYS recieve your parts. customs may have it, if so they will send out a notice.

It took 4 weeks for me to receive a fuel pressure reg from Nengun only a few months ago.

Remember that Nengun isn't just a small supplier anymore, Brent has HEAPS of people ordering off him and you aren't his only customer.

I've had varying experiences with delivery dates from Brent and would never recommend anyone else to get overseas parts from.

It's take from 5 days to 4 weeks for me to receive parts. It depends on his schedule/load/customs...

I don't think you have anything to worry about mate. I know it can be a bit of a worry when you send payments for parts overseas (especially with the amount of shonks out there these days), but there are many people on here (including myself) that can vouch for Nengun.

I've always received my orders off Nengun (sometimes very quickly and other times not so), but fact of the matter is, they've always arrived. I actually received notification today that my injectors have just been sent, so hopefully they'll turn up in the next few days. If you be patient, I'm sure your goods will arrive in good time as well :)

      The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.

      Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?

      You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.

      The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:

      Dumb rich kid tries modding for the first time

      By Hexi · Posted

      Ohhh I see lol To be honest the main reason why I wanted to start modding is because of a business trip to Japan and Indonesia. I saw many cool and modded cars all throughout in these countries, especially Japan. I myself am of Chinese+Japanese nationality and when living in china (never lived in Japan js my dad side lol) I remember staring at these cars pass by with their loud tacky exhausts and insane wide body kits. And when I went back to Japan, I got even more invested even asking people about their cars and why they modded. Most gave similar answers to what you said but funny enough one guy just said that he saw the need for speed movie being filmed once in Tokyo I think near Shibuya Crossing and got inspired to tune and mod. After that I just started to fantasize on owning a car like that. Also tbh I prefer the R32 over the R34 it's just the R34 is more iconic lol (also apparently better aftermarket support than the R32) and my only goal really is just to make the car mine and make it fun to drive. As much as I love my Cayenne it's pretty bland to drive. Sure the interior is nice and pretty, gives you attention yada yada but I've wanted to experience what it is like to have a car that is truly yours. I suppose thats the goal so far. Haha if you find where I'm from, then sure. Ill help you out on your next "financial decision"
