i did a whitepages search for people in the area with that name...its attached....i hope this helps you get your man...

cheers buddy i will back on the gold coast shortly and will enquire about these adresses, any other info would be greatly appreciated.

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.

i know your trying to stick up for you buddy but u got it all wrong.

i can honestly say i never fitted the tires and therefore never knew the problem even exsisted. if i did fit them and found that problem i guess i would be upset but i dont think i would go after them on a public forum.

next time i sell anything i will tripple check the qualtiy of the item before selling.

wish there was something i could do to help your friend out. after all he seemed like a top bloke pitty he drives a supra :P i think i still have his number in my phone, get him to give me a buzz if he is that upset and will try and work something out.

just to back melv up, yes he did donate a fuel pump he won at our dyno comp back to the club!!! Champ

And i also bought a set of wheels off him without any dramas, think he even let me pay him off. Was a long time ago now though!! I'm sure you guys should be able to sort something out.

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
