Stop a TradeMe scammer! - 29/11/09 Car inspected in person!

This guy has been trying for a while to sell his GDA WRX with various bolt on STi cosmetic bits, claiming that it's a "Singapore spec" GDB STi. Of course, he's full of bollocks, he got ripped off and is now trying to rip someone else off. Someone has bid reserve on his auction, so I reckon we should flood the auction with incriminating questions about his car not being an STi etc, so the buyer gets scared off and doesn't complete the deal. I hate scammers.

CarJam shows his plates to be FCA216 and chassis number to be JF1GDAKD33G031867.

In fact, if he relists, we should just keep on harrassing him until he changes the auction to be accurate. Because I've complained to TradeMe, and they've done nothing.

Did I say I hate scammers?

Its not an STI. Plain and simple. WRX interior, WRX under bonnet, just STI add ons. The intercooler is too short to be an STI one with the writing removed.

I doubt the bid is genuine either. New-ish trader with a 1 rating, and hits reserve on first bid??

Ok got a reply from him.

Quote/Thats fine.It doesnt have a WOF currently but as stated will be sold with a new 1 .

Sorry for geting a bit aggrevatd with certain people on that auction that claim to be experts before they have even seen the car.

Its either a sti or a wrx with alot on money spent on it!

The guy that came to see it told me about it being singapore spec sti tld me that before he knew where it originatd from singapore so took his word for it.cheers jed///end quote

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
