C.O.D is a stuff around and it can be very expensive. Obviously it is a safer way but you still dont know what is in the box until you pay to take it. Best to buy from members with more than 100 posts and check their history.

Anyone guy to watch out for from here is Melv.

Sold my mate a pair of tyre saying they were near new when in fact they were 5/6 yr old.. Two tyre places told us that the rubber had hardened and can not be fitted. He refuses to pay back any money.

Also he ripped off another person from here called Mines. Apparently he bought his GTR through Mines, to this day he still hasnt paid the full amount.

So yes.. watch out for Melv

If it's the melv i think he didn't buy his GTR locally... it was imported... He never seemed like the sort of guy to stuff people round...

Yes, mines helped him import the car into australia.

I sold him some headlights. He asked me about melv and if i knew him. I told him how melv ripped off my mate and he told me how melv still owes him money for the car he imported into aust for him.

If anyone would like proof im sure if you pm mines, im sure he is more then happy to tell you. Also im more then happy to forward the messages replies from then PMs i sent him.

hahaha classic

likley story buddy, the wheels were practily brand new. and before your friend took them he looked over both wheels for 15min with a spot light !!!!!!!!!!

if u speek to mines ask him where my r34 n1 engine is also ask him where my cusco front diff is oh yeh and why not ask him where are my racing front pipes mmmm all of the above was promised when i took delivery of my car.

i wanted my money back but he wouldnt reply to any of those questions.

u want more info ? mines was using over 5 user names on here running a busness, dont u have to apply to sell stuff as a company on these forms ?

i try my best to be helpful and there is always someone trying to bring you down.

i personly changed and made over 40 SAU stickers for us qld'ers free to help the club out.

i won a fuel pump at the dyno comp hosted by mase and gave it back to help found this forums there.

i get f**ked around from the guy who sold me my car but i never mentioned a bad thing about him till just then ^^^^^ i still consider him a friend as he is in the group of ppl i hang out with now and then from another local trader.

o well i can only try ay.

PEACE

near new? PFFT..

2 tyre shops told us that the model of tyre is about 5/6yrs old. Both tried to fit the tyre and both couldn’t get the pressure to hold. My friend is not a tyre specialist. Looking at the tyre with a spotlight doesn’t exactly reveal small cracks that form after the rubber hardens.

For you to turn around and tell us to contact the guy who sold you the tyres, is a load of sh*t. So what you are telling me is, if I buy a second-hand car and something goes wrong at the start, then I should go to the person who originally owned the car and not the guy who sold me the car?

For mines, I have only heard what he told me n now from what u told me. But u can’t tell me, from what I have experienced from you is exactly good. Sorry, but I would take mines words over yours.

I had asked a few ppl about u before I told my friend to buy the tyres. Word of mouth about you had been good until you screwed my friend.

      Cold Start Rattling Sound

      By silviaz · Posted

      So my rb is finally having more problems. 2 issues here but I'm here to just to mainly discuss the rattle noise. The other day when I turned on the car and when I take off or go in reverse, there is a temporary rattle noise but when I cruise, boost, idle it's completely fine no rattle whatsoever. I've also done all the servicing, all the health checks you can think of and it all passes with flying colours.  Also the rattle doesn't increase with rpm, it's only at a very certain rpm (slightly above 1,100rpm). My other car also has the same issue every once in a while. Changed the oil recently, no difference. Even took my oil to a lab and everything was quite good surprisingly. Timing belt changed a while ago to. Had the car on the hoist and can't see anything obvious. Tightened a couple of nuts on the exhaust manifold a couple of months ago. 2 different clips uploaded. One of them was supposed to another issue but I'll save that for another time. Thought I'd see if anyone had this same noise before, it's a bit hard to diagnose while it's intermittent. If I'm not mistaken, I think I had this a while back but can't remember exactly. I was thinking if it's doable I'll get someone to hold the throttle cable at 1,100rpm and hopefully it replicates the sound. rb25det rattle only.mp4 rb25det slow start + rattle.mp4

      Yeah I’ll know when I take it for a test drive and I’ll double check the turbos as well when I have a look at it again.  Just thought maybe they might have done something in the head cause it looks like they’ve taken off the rocker covers 🤔 Thanks for your info!

      As Duncan mentioned it's likely a remapped ECU, like the the one listed in the link I post earlier:  https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/444260/car/444612/2099320/parts.aspx He quoted 444PS with an unopened engine and twin GT2510s @ 1.1bar boost... sounds about right?
