Post subject: | Losing it |
Two weeks ago I bought an ARC FMIC kit from a reputable sponsor on NissanSilvia.com. I clarified with him twice, that it was definitely for an S13, and I was told it was. I made it very clear that it had to be a bolt up affair, and I was assured it was. It was delivered, and after spending a couple of hours taking all the stock gear off, it turned out that it didn't fit and was for an S14. I emailed the seller who basically said 'send it back for a refund'. So, after wasting hours of my time, making my car undriveable, I was supposed to take time out of my working day to go to the post office and pay $60 to send it back to Perth... I tried again with another sponsor, this time I decided to go with an ARC SMIC. I explained my predicament I had had with a previous sponsor, and he assured me it was DEFINITELY for an S13. Not only was it DEFINITELY for an S13, it was also BRAND NEW. I paid him, and he sent it in the mail. I got a call from the sponsor: "By the way, that was a typo on the website, it isn't new - but it is in good condition." Whatever. It arrived, and it was in good condition. So I try again, this time thinking that I'll definitely have my car running by late tonight. Not so. It would appear that this intercooler is for a Stagea, not an S13. So I'm pretty much up shit creek again, and hoping I can get a refund from him. All this is just fucking ridiculous. I seriously can't believe after paying so much I'm still at square one, all from people that are supposed to be trustworthy sellers. Before anyone asks, I didn't want to cut a hole in the battery tray or hack up the front bar because I'm wary of defects. ...vent over! |

Well I try not to buy off them often, usually I get shit from Yahoo Japan, but freight is very expensive and it takes ages. Because I was looking for something so specific I would have bought it from just about anywhere in Australia. Pity I've been so burnt |

That guy is a total douchebag, he took about three weeks to deliver some solid engine mounts to me. Send him a letter of demand. |

Name them. They aren't sponsors here and if they don't know what they are selling they don't deserve the business. |

Don't get me started on bad service and wrong parts. Seeing as I drive a stagea,if you have time,shoot me a pm with a few pics of the thing and how much you want for it. we may be able to work something out. I was interested in your S14 fmic to try and fit into the stagea... an smic FOR a stagea might be even better... Justin... |

The reason I bought the kit off him was id bought 2 sets of 40mm dmax guards off him for the 180 ages ago and he was really good so I expected the same this time around im on the verge of flying down to sa to go and see him |

Yeah race spec is a fuckwit, i waited 3 mouths for a new kit only eneded up with a refund when i called him a few times a day and emailed him a few times a day telling him he was full of shit and stuff. Called up monkey in QLD 2 weeks ago on wendsday oreded a kit and it arived on friday, awsome service after dealing with tarek the fuckwit. Most NS.com sponsers are fuckwits, but never had a problem with street dancer or cj motors. |
