Can you chuck together a profesional letter that we can all email to ebay and post on all other car forums and get everyone on there to send it, thatll get ebay moving.

 

[Antony]

not realy, although the one i sent to him consisting of ecu wiring diagrams and testimonials from here and other nissan websites, plus statements from negative feedback, a photograph of the part from a previous transaction and a whole list of reasons why not to buy one sorted him out and all he said was.

"your entitled to your oppinion"

We know they're all crap, what i dont get is people who leave positive feedback for these dodgey things. If people continue to do so, they'l probably get away with it saying customers are satisfied!

Nice one for reporting it though

is that the chip thing that mant to increase BHP by 20+?

 

[Ems]

yes it is!!! Load o poop!!

 

[TredderK11]

i cant understand how the things ment to work, even though its a load of crap if it was a decent product how the hell would it work?

 

[lewic]

Arent they supposed to fool the ECU into thinking theres more cold air going into the system, hence more power, or something like that?

Was put off buying one due to feedback from people saying they were impossible to fit, or that it had nackered their car. Are the reports of extra power just placebo effect?

 

[Stani1029]

i had one of these which im sure worked slightly but the heat of the engine melted it

 

[TredderK11]

it is a pig 2 fit i ordered it day before all this was posted it came through today and i cant find where the hell its meant to be put

 

[Stani1029]

it is a pig 2 fit i ordered it day before all this was posted it came through today and i cant find where the hell its meant to be put

look through the hains manual, its something to do with a temperature inlet air thing or something close to that lol it probably wont even work but have a go

 

[Arnold]

i cant find where the hell its meant to be put

In the bin

 

[whipit]

Read this for fitting instructions.

 

[Fordy]

the only place you could fit it on a k11 is across the coolant temp sensor pins but i'd rather you chuck it in the bin as you will only damage your car as the rad fan wont kick in as the ecu will be reading a fixed temperature

 

[mike]

im sure this has tried before and ebay couldn't care less, personally not keeping my hopes up however it will be great if they are slowly removed from ebay

 

[Arnold]

Its hardly likely ebay will act, when they make money from all the fees, final auction total's & paypal transfers.
