If hes local and you know where he is, go pay him a old school visit and sort it out.

Make sure there are no witnesses....

Got to watch some people on forums, we only had 1 bad trade experiance, ended up sending a GTR badge to someone here a while ago and the guy made claims about it, a mod got involved and backed him up as being a mate and never lieing (yeah right), if i ever cross paths with the bullshit artist buyer at a meet, its not the $, its the principal....Not just buyer beware, its seller beware too.

Quite often second hand parts being sold here end up being in a condition where they should have been binned, cams with rust pits on them etc, if anything ive learned now is to either go in person to check out the goods or buy new.

Not having a go at the forum, just passing on some logic for others not to get burnt, there are heaps of idiots on both sides of the trader fence, if you cant pick it up and look at it, pay on the spot, walk away with it, beware, you dont know who you are dealing with, one mans treasure could turn out into another mans trash or scam.

So much this ^

You really need to ask for a few pictures of the item on all sides. I got some gtr gauges off a well established member who said they were in 'great' condition. I received them with black glue type shit all over them, spray paint, and broken tabs, all because i never asked for more than the 1 blurry picture.

If someone is evasive and won't meet up to sell the goods, the chances are they're not in the condition they were described. Or possibly stolen and or not even in possession of the seller.

I think a few people remember this time last year, a seller on here was selling a clutch and ecu and a few other expensive parts. The parts were not sent and seller was un contactable. The same thing happened to that guy who bought a power fc from ben ellis.

If the seller wants a sale, he/she will open a paypal account or meet up or send photos, it is not hard and takes a total of 1 minute. I've had a few guys open an account for me.

Maybe we need the trader ratings under our club affiliation with a % of good or bad trades, a lot of forums have these now days.

What we are all seeing, from page 2 onwards, are the hallmarks of a scammer who has been a member of this forum, using one name or another, since 2007.

He refuses to deny the allegation that he is countless account names (all of which link to him through his mobile telephone numbers and car rego plates, including a set of plates he attempted to sell on this very forum) which have been banned, time and again, for scamming. Again, and again, and again, he is tied to those accounts.

At this point, you have one member saying he stole a torque converter and resold it, another who has received neither goods nor proof that they were posted, and another who received a cracked component, with the timeline making no sense - and when challenged on this, the guy who proposed to leave negative feedback was advised by the guy in question that his mate, a mod or admin, would delete it for him. This is to say nothing of his reputation on multiple other forums.

He has been banned elsewhere, and here under different names, for either not delivering goods, or delivering goods significantly different from how they'd been described. All the links have been provided.

He was traced to this forum in 2010 by an ebay buyer who did not receive what was paid for.

His name, his address, his car - all of it is publicly known, thanks to the guy himself, and a whole lot of other forum posts.

So, I ask you, admins, #@funkymonkey #@Blitz #@R31Nismoid - Is this something you are prepared to let stand? Is he allowed to keep getting away with ripping off your membership with absolute impunity, after you banned him years ago?

^ are you serious

what a joke

if hes local and you have had a issue with this person why was it not dealed with at the time

forget about the whole kando turbo matter

it was inspected by myself and another person that owns a very respectable shop

why was it checked we all check everything out.

there was no visible crack or anything if there was it would have been brought up with kando then and there as it came back from warranty

sure it would have after having to argue with kando for the 4 months to get that one

pretty sure they would have told him to bang off

your not helping yourself and your business by associating with him

his timeline doesn't help your or his version of events so sorry can't take any of your "words" for it

(shit he had 5 of the things at some stage how do you even know you were looking at the one he sent me)

he's not helping himself by not denying those scamming accounts are not his

mine and auto trans(whatever) dude's interactions also point to something not being right

if he came out and flat our denied those accounts have anything to do with him and copthis couldn't prove otherwise I'd let it rest

I think that's more than fair on my part

      Shift Performance Ganador Reps

      By Lmic · Posted

      Came across these Ganador reps and am wondering if anyone has used these/come across these ?  Seem to look like reasonably good replicas (shape wise) from what I can see. Ive been told by them that they are moulded to be exact copies of original Ganadors (but thats what every replica version will say) https://www.shiftperformance.com.au/ganador-style-mirrors-suits-nissan-skyline-r33-gtr Photos of them installed appreciated Thanks 👍

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      lol, yeah, and how gutted I am now I’m back over in Europe (actual Europe) and dealing with the nightmare of U.K.-Continental Europe bureaucracy.   Anyway, arrived in NL early January with the BMW, whilst the Skyline followed suit about a week later. Both cars ended up stuck with their relative importers for about six weeks. Since then, I made a trip to the Nurburgring with a friend and have since ditched the Skyline in the garage. This week, I finally managed to find a suitable shop to do an alignment so hopped on over to Germany to fix the miserable mess the local Netherlands shop conducted; the car was just not aggressive enough in the rear for my driving style - I found myself understeering a fair bit at the ring which was really a first for me with this car. Mis-matched F&R tyres can be held partly responsible - have now moved to F+R NS2Rs. One thing I’ve noticed is the 180kph limiter just does not cut it here. I quickly hit that (for the first time) in Germany on the autobahn. Japanese circuits are small - at least the ones that were near me. I rarely spent much time in 4th. After much deliberation with the HKS SLD, I have ordered Nistune from Matt. Whilst the Skyline has been gathering dust I got to learning the highly neglected BMW I bought in the U.K. was in fact just that, highly neglected. Took the ol’ dog down to Switzerland last weekend with a progressively deteriorating front end. It went from vibration during braking at highway speed on the way down, to vibrating non-stop on the way back. I’ve already fixed numerous engine issues - low oil pressure, f**ked injectors, incorrect coils and plugs, electric water pump. Still to do is a suspension and brake overhaul, rear subframe replacement and likely more ageing engine electrical components. But I must say, I love it. After so long with the Skyline, I really didn’t know cars could be so comfortable.
