jza240sx
Months ago I put up a for sale ad to sell my pnp 1jz harness, ecu, safcII etc because I went full Standalone on my 1jz powered S14. here is the link..
http://zilvia.net/f/sale-items/27626...k-safc-ii.html I found a Local buyer but he kept stalling on payment and jza240sx on this site had already pm'ed me that he was interested. I corresponded with him Sept 2nd to the 3rd via PM according to the Pm's that are STILL in my inbox.matter of fact he asked a bunch of questions and wanted me to pull the harness out and take pics. I told him I will do better, I will take a video of the car and the harness, start it show it off to prove that it works. because I didn't want to take apart my fully running car, just to be told that he changed his mind and I am stuck with a non running car while trying to sell the harness.. he said it was fine.. here is the Video... Its a good thing at this point I made the video and didn't tear my car apart like he wanted because Guess what? He said he doesnt have the money to buy the harness!. He had to sell his AFC Neo and something else to come up with the money. Ok No problem wasn't upset. Now the local Guy said he wanted to buy my Whole setup as a package deal. Sept 5th, jza240sx Pm's me asking more Questions. I told him I already have a local buyer, Just waiting on him to get the money together. He then Pm's me saying I will Paypal you $550 ($100 more than I was asking) if I sold it to him right now. I said ok DEAL!. he paypals me the money Within 24 hours I took my Whole car apart. I broke I think Two coil pack plugs and I had to cut the plug off from the oil pressure sensor. I called him as soon as it was done to tell him this. I told him I will order all new plugs to replace the coil pack plugs, and add back the oil pressure plug.. every single thing I did since I removed it I called him on. Because at this point I had his money and wanted to make sure he knew every single thing going on. I ordered the plugs from Toyota, it took a few days, and during that period, he asked me more questions via pm and asked me to take pics of the harness. here are the pics and Pm's Quote:
maybe 2 weeks later he calls me saying the harness has a weird plug he has never seen and he is having problems. and he wants a refund. I said Slow down I will help you as Best I can, I told him everything I knew from my LIMITED point of view when it comes to wiring, then I offered to have the actual Wiring guy who built the harness call him to have him answer any questions. keep in mind my car RAN and all my shit worked, parking lights, Air conditioning, windows wipers, EVERYTHING. The Wiring guy spoke to him and all was well.. here are some of the Last pm's Quote:
Those are our last conversations.. he spoke to the Wiring guy got all his questions answered. He would call me and if I didnt pick up right away I would call him back. he was fully satisfied with the harness and agreed it was as described. he got his questions answered from the Wiring guy. Dont take my word for it. read through the Pm's anyway I didnt get a PM from Him or a phone call since September 27th. as far as I knew all his problems were take care of and he was out burning tires in his new beast I spend all my time on Supraforums and supramania. I stopped coming here. Tonight I get a pm on Supramania that he has been trying to get a hold of me on zilvia and I need to check my messages. so I did. and it said this.. hey man how you doin? I bought the harness from you about 3 or 4 months ago now and i just wanted to let you know that it was not how you described. The car has not yet started. When i first put it on i did as you said with the yellow plug with the red wire and all that and it did not do anything. None of my dash lights turned on nor did the motor crank over. After maybe a month of sending pictures talking back and forth getting help from dr tweak and the guys at tech 2 i decided to just send it out to get fixed to be plug and play for any 240sx of my model. He fixed some of it but i didnt have the money to completely fix everything. I ended up spending $300 more on this harness that you said was complete plug and play with no broken plugs. When i got it plugs were broken and missing. Tweak replaced them and added the missing plugs as well Please get back to me to work something out. I would like a partial refund for this harness. If no response is received within one week i will escalate to a report to paypal and negative feedback. I responded.. What are you talking about? I sent you the harness with every plug. (1)brand new replacement coil pack plugs, you agreed everything was fine. (2) You had issues starting it up and then said you want your money back because whoever touched your car didnt know what they were doing. I made phone calls, I talked to you, I talked to, the guy who did the harness, I talked to you again. then him. I dont even remember if you spoke to him at one point. all seemed ok, You just disappeared So I figured everything must have worked out. Now months later you come with this??? Dude. Im not a scammer or a bullshitter. the harness works 1000000000% I showed you a video, I took every single pic you said you wanted to see BEFORE I took payment from you. I answered every single question you asked. and I sent you the harness as I described. It was a clean harness, nothing butchered up. every single thing on my car worked, the car started. you SAW it. I dont know what you claimed you had to replace. I gave you a harness that works, you took it to people who had no clue how to install it then you are asking for a refund. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take a look at the harness and tell me ONE single thing that would prevent your car from starting or any lights to come on in your car? All the wires and good, all the plugs are good, nothing internally is broken, so please tell me HOW the harness is keeping your car from starting? Somebody pleased explain to me how I am the bad guy here?????? this guy is talking as if I scammed him! and now threatening to have Paypal getting involved because his guys cant figure out how to start his car? He is saying I promised him no broken plugs and he got broken plugs, when CLEEEAAAAARLLY in the PM above with PICS. you can see than not only are there NOT any broken plugs and all he wanted to know what what most of the plugs were for!!!! now all of a sudden the plugs were broken and he had to spend $300 to get DR tweak to repair it!!!!!!??? I have every single Correspondence between Him and I from Beginning to End. and from the minute he got my harness he has NOT said there was anything wrong with the Harness. every single wire, plug or plastic was completely intact and he agreed on this!. the harness is Clean, no messed up contacts, nothing! there is no reason whatsoever for it to leave a running car then go in another car and all of a sudden it cant crank and not even headlights come on! I have never scammed anyone in my life, I have Ebay feedback, I have sold on Honda-tech, supramania, here, Sfldrifters, Supraforums. all under the same name "Boostage" I have no complaints. but all of a sudden I am scamming this guy with a harness??? Please tell me Paypal will not allow this! Last edited by Boostage; 01-09-2010 at 01:46 AM.. |

I just sent this thread to jza240sx and I want to ask you in front of everyone!
(1)When you received the Harness did you not agree that it had no broken plugs anywhere as indicated in the Picture and PM? (2)Please tell me what could possibly stop not only your car from not cranking but your HEADLIGHTS (which is not even a part of the ENGINE harness) to not come on like you stated with a harness that has NO broken wires, No Missing Parts As verified by you in the PM and on the phone (3) How does the harness go from clean with No broken plugs as verified by you in the PM to 4 months later "yeah the plugs were broken and needed repair"???? Please let me know.. |

yeah the buyer clearly didnt know what he was buying and what he was getting himself into when it comes to electrical parts for his car. you clearly sent him all the info he asked for, also paypal will only close your account until the case is closed, but will open it back up as soon as you send in all the info and PM's youve posted here. so i woudnt worrie since you did everything right as a seller, and plus you got all the old PM's

You know what makes this even WORSE? I originally posted my For sale thread on SFLdrifters
FS 1jz ecu, harness and safc for 240 + more - SFLDrifters.com I said.. I prefer South FLorida sale that way you can come see it all work, drive it examine it then I take it off the car in front of you. again this is a full plug and play system for anyone who is putting in a 1jz or 2jz in their car. please PM me if you have any questions. I am located in Fort Lauderdale. TIA I wanted a Local sale just to avoid this exact type of BS. |

so you really had to bring this into public matters when its between you and him...... The harness was put it in with the motor. The motor was not cranking after we put the harness in. I do remember him asking you where the starter solenoid was and you said that it was there when it was not. He ran his own wire from the battery to the starter when that plug was suppose to be on the 1jz harness itself. He also asked why the oil pressure plug was not there because it was not. Grow up and talk to him privately about the situation. Why are you assuming he is scamming you when he did not even file a dispute.

gtfo. If the op actually ordered all the coil pack plugs and oil pressure plug that was damaged, of course he would have ordered anything else that was missing. Tell your friend to man up when he f*cks it up. Even if your friend files a dispute, he will not win.

could be difference in the car between years.. should have specified that just to be a lil more clear "this has worked on my 95 S14 SE" yadda yadda incase dude has a kouki or something. Its though, ive did a paying job harness work for someone and I drove to them to do the work and even called em everyday to make sure it started because I didnt want them coming back to me lol. Local is the way to go when its custom made stuff like this. Good Luck OP

Since you wont explain to me how a Harness runs on my car and not on his, yet somehow Its your opinion that he has a bad harness. im just going to say..
You are not Qualified to Diagnose a bad harness... a thread you made... http://zilvia.net/f/s-chassis/293060...sure-line.html ^^ not just based off that. but you also said.. Quote:
You still haven't explained this to me. Now you said you worked on this car as I quoted above. could that be the reason why his car is not running? I'm not trying to offend you but it really seems you should not be the one to touch the car... |

Im going to start off to saying this is becoming childish... then im going to say no... im going to tell you that boostage is a honest man when it comes to his car. that harness took him a good while to get completed. It worked when the car left the shop... it worked when the car went to the dyno and it worked, and it worked when it drove all the way to the strip.. Thats it the harness was carefully thought out and place properly.
Hypertek is right about the the different s14 The head lights has nothing to do with the engine harness do some f***ing research. maybe your friend unplug somthing because he is the big wiring guy. Roninwon is right how did it work on one car but not the next if it is the same model Did you guys even lay the harness out and make sure what you was pluging in was correcet. That there was no stretching of any sorts. its a customer harness every thing is made to length. Oh yea here is the shitter how do u bring a harness to some one, then pay 300 dollars and still having no F***ING RESULTS.... IM STARTING TO THINK THAT ITS NOT THE HARNESS ITS THE INSTALLIES ps.. just so u dont also put what everybody telling backwards stop what u doing and take the harness off the car lay it out then think realllll hard put it back in carfully and watch it start vroooooom |

From what I know JZA is a good guy. He sent me a harness and told me there was a few things wrong with it but it worked on his buddies car turns out when I get it there are some important plugs missing. I contacted him and he sent me a full refund.
I know that doesnt have much to do with this topic, I just dont think he is trying to scam anyone. Maybe some help is what he is looking for..... |

I have been around this project for most of the build, OP paid top dollar to one on the best wiring guys in south florida, I was there when the car was on dyno, i have driven in the car, i was even planning on purchasing this whole setup at one point, but changed my mind because i was going back to school. Everything was legit and well executed.

I have also been around this project from when it started and also assisted with the wiring of this engine harness and OP's new harness for his stand alone. All connections were soldered and heat shrink, the car started and drove for a awhile before starting the new phase of his project, and had dynoed and made around 425hp to the wheels with now issues with the harness that was sold. If buyer had problems with the harness it was on his installation, from when he originaly tried and installed it and after he had "sent it out to get fixed", the car clearly has other issues with wiring as his lights do not work which is in no way tied into the engine harness that he had bought.
