Chinaonnitrous HELP me guys...

Ok, so I had a thread going for a while looking for China after I paid him 1050 for my used for 10K miles JIC Magic FLTA2s that I bought off him. I got around installing them, aligning the car and here is the result- LF shock is blown from the get go. JIC wants 1000 to rebulild these !!! I have sent China a PM bout this, its going to be a week soon and I have not heard a word from him bout this. It took me ALMOST 4 weeks to get my JICs after a prompt payment, now I'm faced with a fuqed up suspension that is going to cost ANOTHER 1K dollars to fix. If he don't respond I'm callin local authorities around his area, anyone know this dude ? see him ? talk to him ? tell him to get back to me before Local PD shows up at his place asking for him. This is BS and I am not going to let this go. I was all hyped up bout my JICs coming in, but right now I have not been even able to drive my car cause the LF shock is clunking so bad that it feels like something is going to come OFF the front end of the car ! I simply want my $$$ back and he can keep his JIC suspension. Good thing I have my Legend to drive around to work, next week I'm putting on my old GC/Koni setup back on so I can enjoy my Maxima again. I can't belive this **** you guys.... what would you do ?

I have met China before and he seemed cool. But with all I am hearing, it sounds like he needs beating.

Have you tried instant messaging him? I show him being on right now from his mobile phone.

dude who the hell are you?!. I've never even heard of you.



As for everyone else, Check my maxima.org post count or date of last posting, I havent had a maxima for a long time. Nor have i been on this board except to get rid of a few last things. I have been on vacation for the past 4 days (valentines day), and have been un-reachable in a Lake Tahoe cabin.

AOL itself filtes out maxima.org stuff so I dont get his PM's.

The JIC"s themselves were in perfect working order, I've even had a few maxima.org members in the vehicle. A .org reputable installer even put them in for me.

Not sure if the noises he reports are due to spring preload, loose lock rings, or a loose pillow ball mount.

Im out at work & with the significant other most of the time, so the fun and games and postwhoring on maxima.org has been tossed out.

Ive PM'ed him back already, as today was my first day back to hell at work.

its OBVIOUSLY A JOKE, if you numbskulls/sheep would stop to think that it could be just a post *****. HONESTLY think about it, it would cost more to ship the weight of a stock hood, than to just buy a carbon fiber one.

Besides, it took 4 weeks because UPS fuc*ed up the package, and it had to be returned to me. Thats why it came FEd-Ex instead.

If you want to test if theyre blown, remove the actual SHOCK/STRUT from the spring and body assembly, and press down on the strut. If it stays there, its blown, if it rebounds its good.

I would also like to mention that China is a good guy.

He sold me a GXE dash kit, and i received exactaly as he said it, in new condition. I vouch for China and leave this thread to miscommunication.

I installed the suspension and uninstalled it. At the point of uninstall they were in working order. I kno 100% the rears were not blown cause i took them apart to check. I did not take apart the front to check but on the car they didnt feel blown. I wouldnt automatically assume noise is cause by a blown strut...its possible it could be something else. and JIC wants $1000 to rebuild them???? dunno bout that. I bought 2 new front dampers a few months ago and it cost me $220 each.

and you have 686 posts, i dont care for YOUR response. Are you planning to buy something from me? Mr. I dont even have a profile, or AIM screen name. Why dont you post something about yourself?

Or are you THAT bored at work, as to stick your nose in everyones thread?


Grab your popcorn and move along please. Its just so pathetic that theres so many sheep around here now.

I'll even call out O.G. memebers like Anton, and George (Mr. Nismo) ive had deals with them many times.

okay, did you want something from me? I wouldnt sell you anything anyway. Your profile, is totally lacking, leaving no idea who you really are. So, like the thread is titled, he needs help with me. You dont know me, so stay out. Pretty simple right?

my opinion is that if your not related to this thread then stay out. It doesnt help any and juss adds fuel to the fire. this thread is about BlackBIRDVQ and ChinaonNitrous and the JIC coilovers....

so you would'nt sell me anything because my profile is lacking??? that is dumb, my ability to buy should be whether or not i have the money, and whether or not i am a paypal verified buyer. just because i don't have a profile doesnt mean anything. i dont understand why you are so pissed at me. im allowed to comment, it isnt like im being off topic. bottom line is that you have been accused of being a rip-off artist by TWO people in this thread, and you are being a pompous *** to me. get a grip man.

China has been on these boards A LOONG time and is one of the people who helped me thru allot of my modding/ dilemas etc. he seems like a great guy, and the fact that you guys are downing him for stupid crap is an outrage, i think you should seriosuly think long and hard/ know what the heIL your talkign about before you get on here and talk trash. and 1000$ to rebuild JIC's..your a freaking moron. Go to honda-tech.com if u just want to sit and bash people all day long

1. Blown shocks don't usually make noise. It's usually an indication that something is loose or missing on coilovers.

2. Larry (aka ChinaonNitrous) is a good guy, although maybe hard to reach. There are too many external variables to blame shipping issues on him.

3. Don't be stupid and ask JIC to rebuild them. They will charge almost as much as a new set, and won't give you anything new besides seals. If you have a damaged part, just buy a new one.

Man, stay out of the thread and mind your business. Post here again and I'll give you a few days off. It's clear you don't have first hand knowledge of this issue so don't post about it or fight with China to save face.

This thread is has the most concentration of people getting owned that I've ever seen in the history of the org. Maybe it'll teach some of you to stop jumping on BS bandwagons to try to dog on the credibility of someone you've never even dealt with.
