Haha cheers. Was image searching brands off the top of my head but forgot about Sparco. Joker - Dont fit over the factory brakes you say? was that on 17"? Spacers wouldnt fix that?

Had my 3" downpipes installed. No more rattle and surprisingly quiet... Sounds a tonne better and seems to be a bit quicker too!

Just wondering if anyone can identify these wheels? Thought they may of been Speedline's of AVS but they are slightly different. It anyone has any idea, let me know.

Transaction resolved. Picked up from Toll depot on Thursday afternoon. Still haven't heard a word from seller. An apology would be nice but at least I have the goods.

Mother in law sent me a photo of the Toll depot docket today. Should be ringing me on Friday to pick up. Quite happy she used them as they are conveniently a 2 minute walk from work. Stoked to hopefully have this sorted. However, I couldn't of in good conscience not mention the other instances of bad feedback placed against her account and the fact that there could be other outstanding transactions. It didn't surprise me to be told that they never mentioned that to her... I told her that the they were the reason her account was disabled and what prompted me to contact Trademe in the first place. Hopefully those were transactions where there was no contact and there aren't other people that could be out of pocket.

Have had his mother promise to personally send them with tracking numbers at lunch time Tuesday. I've stated it will be the last chance before I involve the police.

I think it was more a moment of stupidity. Three of the bad feedback came the day after i was supposed to recieve it though. I wasn't able to view them as the account had already been banned. I would assume she is trying to rip other people of too. Anyway, turns out it was her boyfriends mother. I made the mistake as i got her profile from one of her photos where she was holding Carlenes new born. She had commented that she was a proud Nana. Probably isn't as proud now... She has indicated her disgust and will be contacting me later today when she has spoken to them. hopefuly one step closer.

The one that shows her plate I beleive is an older one. It hasnt been updated since 2013 while the other one had her profile changed on wednesday. And yeah I've learnt my lesson there. She had been a member for about 18 months so wasnt technically new. The bad feedback was placed the day after my packages was to arrive. Contacted trademe straight away. Dont know if she has that car anymore as its not on her newer profile. Didnt think you could to that these days either? [quote name='SpeedySub said: If shes doing a course at the Academy I could stake (not stalk) her out, I work just down the road? Again - that was on her older profile. She'd have to be thick as pig **** to still be trying to learn how to make a coffee! I did a fair bit of digging around her profiles and what not and given her age and the fact that I actually cannot be bothered having to go to the police (and they probably wont do much anyway) I contacted her mother via facebook detailing what has happened, accompanied by the police referal from trademe. My hope is that she isnt as much of a piece of trash as he daughter and it gets sorted. A long shot, but dont really have much else at this stage.

- I could of called her a lot worse given the amount she's ripped me off for...

Yes I have. Wouldn't bother trying to proceed if I hadn't.

about a week and a half ago I won an auction for some down pipes of Trademe. Have been given bull**** excuses and now the ***** wont reply to my text's or emails. Filed a non delivery report through Trademe and they were given a deadline of 5pm tonight to get me some tracking numbers but what a surprise, nothing. Will be taking her bank account details to the police in the morning. I did a little internet detective work and thought I'd post up a couple of her many social media profiles on here. Her name is xxx. Apparently she is from Linwood, and young in age. xxx Anyone know her?

Cheers. Kind of what i thought but thought ask first. I'll tell him to take it in.

Just finished using upper engine cleaner in mine and a mates car. When doing his smoke literally poured out of somewhere on or around the turbo (v5 wrx). Would this indicate a dodgy seal? It doesn't smoke at all normally.

Cheers BH5 GTB

Do I need to do an oil change after using upper engine cleaner? And will it clean my IACV alright or should I still remove that and give it a clean with something else?

Mr $25k legacy build?

Can the WOF man fail you on a perished accessory belt?

Where from out of curiosity?

The mass's have spoken haha.

Wouldn't mind reading through some of these write ups

Did the hose 10 mod and had a fiddle with the zerosports controller. Completely different car! Installed an apexi boost gauge.

Cheers for that. Will go finish off now.

So I've read through this entire thread and I'm a little lost about the restrictor pills. The first pic in the thread shows vac line going from the manifold straight to the bov. Do I just run a fresh line there or does it need to retain the restrictor pill in the 'L' piece? Heres the pic I refer to.

Is there any point doing this if I have a zerosports controller?

The front would look nice on a wagon.
