Like I have said before. The c**t is a dodgey prick. I'll PM you with contact details for him.

as for you mate... you told me you were buying my car if i remember correctly... you made it seem steve had sold my car on me..... read the engine numbers and everything....

you had stuffed up i had the rego papers in front of me when i was living in penola. i even went over there to melbourne to get a better picture of what was going on...... surprise surpise your doing it right here again... starting sh|T.

the car was sold... as i wanted it to be... but only after i had signed my rego papers over..... i think your problem is it wasnt sold to you......... and that would be the only reason your pissed off...

you were going around telling all your mates you were getting my 33 and sh|t... you got made a liar..... you made yourself a liar..... now you want someone to blame.... pretty immature for someone that goes to uni.... just like the rest of your mates ive found out.... yeah i know all about you and your little games... concidering i come for a totally differant state its sad i even found alot of stuff out about you.

Redback, you have got to be joking. You are in absolute denial. I went to check out the shell Steve was selling along with three of my mates, they can vouch for me. Two of them are on these forums. Everything seemed fine when I saw the shell. It had no engine. I was prepared to buy this shell and had a cheque made out to Steve a few days later. However, Steve seemed a bit too eager to sell it cheaply. I decided I would research it just in case, afterall this was a feg grand we were dealing with. Browsing through these forums I quickly discovered that the shell Steve was selling was your former car, still with all the green decals and fibreglass audio crap. So I added you to my MSN to see if I could find out more about this shell. To be continued...

he did say he was showing you that shell... and he told you that the one for sale was the same.... my shell sold for 12K..... that no were near what you were guna pay... he was gettign your shell from mildura which is were he was when you got ahold of my msn...... he came back with the shell..... maybe you should of visited him to clear things up... you werent dealing through me.....

either way the cars gone now.... what im getting at is steve just lost a son... no one here who hasnt lost there own child can say they know how he feels..... all i can say is give him and his wife sometime... i know if been a month or so but in the end this may not be what he wants to come back to.... he may not work with cars again.... pm me if any of you would like some contact details along wiht a reason.

cheers

Rick

After adding you, I gave you a rundown of the shell I went to see. I gave you a description, including chassis number, rego, colour, decals, previous engine numbet etc... You agreed it was your previous car. However, you had advised me that you had given the car to Steve to put a big hp engine in it, then Steve offered to have the car swapped for a GTR R33 Vspec, by a guy named Brian. I advised this can't be the case, as I was just checking out the shell with the intention of buying it. Steve had previous rego papers and everything. You then advised that you will contact Steve to find out what's going on. Steve informed you that, apparantly I was being shown an example of the car I was going to buy. That your car was being taken to get resprayed. Then, that Steve has a shell for me exactly the same as your car, but not yours. I then started telling you the car's details again, and you stopped validating my concerns. I decided that this is a load of crap, that I am not prepared to lose a few thousand to some dodgey prick who has someone elses car and is trying to offload it, and I cancelled the cheque I made to Steve the next day. Glad I did too, with all people I see getting scammed by this guy.

I'm not one to badmouth someone for no reason or cause trouble. I just don't like seeing people being screwed over for thousands of dollars. Hence, I've tried to warn people. Even one of my friends recognised that Steve was suss, and reported it to admin.

I don't know what you'r talking about being made a liar. First of all, I don't personally know you, nor do you me, or my mates. The mates that were with me, thought I was getting your car, they saw the cheque, and were prepared to go with me to give it to Steve. However, after I did some investigation, it was obvious I was definately not going to buy this car, hence had the cheque cancelled. I now have a legitimate R33. I am glad I didn't buy your car, and certainly not upset, so this is certainly not a vengeful response. I am not playing any games here. I am merely stating my observations and understandings of the business dealings I had with Skyline Steve.

Oh, btw, have you got your GTR yet Rick?

I've met Steve before too. Not really a lot of great stuff to say about him except he got my hopes up and it simply turned out to be nothing more than a complete pipe dream.

No different to any other tyre kicker wanting to buy my car except he spun his crap better than anyone else.

Que sera sera.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
