I am still very confused as to why the transmission needed replaced. Drove perfect for 1500 miles on the way there, he said it shifted great when he testdrove it. Before i left to drive up there, the fluid was checked and there were no problems.
Still very confused how the tranny went out within him owning it for 2 days
Peace,
Jonny

you guys need to chill out, daizenlex would not intentionally screw anyone over.
i helped him get this gold sc fixed, and if I thought he screwed anyone over, I would not have helped him. We are loosing alot of good members here due to banning. Pretty soon, alot of older sc guys will stop posting.
some recent bans:
daizenlex
kmn5
can we get them reinstated?

HAHA,
Not intenionally - hmmm
So he didn't intentionally lie about half the things on the car?? Was it an accident that my apparent lack of working TRAC was not in fact b/c of a replacement of differential, but rather an idiot frying the system.Reinstate the kid and I will be gone. Not a threat - a promise. I will not waste my time interacting with people who will see a blatant disregard for other members and do nothing about it.
Apart from him, I have encountered some awesome people on these forums, all of which seem to bend over backwards to take care of me. Cuz that is what true members do - they help each other - not F@#$ each other.
So lemme know and I will be gone.
Peace,
Jonny

1. Johny i dont mean to sound like an ***, but you cant blame all your problems on him , YOU bought the car, YOU even test drove it and still bought. I mean when i go shopping for cars i dont trust anyone, and even of i do its my responsability to make sure i buy something that works.
2.Out of all the cars being sold 85% of them have something wrong with it that you wont know untill you buy it, its just a matter of fact, and you really shouldnt go around stating every single problem you have im sure you are talented in a way where you can fix most of these problems even by yourself. I mean i would definitely be pissed off like hell , but eventually your going to have to put it behind you and just let it be.

From what ive read i think DX3 had a problem , and ALISC4 for $26 bucks or something, and he got banned for that? I better watch out god forbid i disagree with two people here and ill get banned, i think the clublexus marketplace "should be at your own discretion"
When i bought my car the man told me nothing was wrong with it and when i drove it nothing was wrong with it untill two weeks later my alternator dies, my cluster stopped working, my ac unit light stopped working, you know i just had to suck it up fix it and deal with it.
I will actuall call daizenlex when i need some help on the car , i dont believe that hes that BAD of a
person , i spent almost 2 hours with him and he told me things about my lexus that i didnt even know.

Prometheus,
What you say is true outside of this forum, but many of the members here hold each other to a higher standard. For example, let's say I am buying Vssc400's car. I trust that up front he will tell me what is good and what is bad about his car and I mean everything that may or may not be wrong with his car. Vssc400 will also trust that I won't lowball him either. Same goes for if Vssc400 were buying my car. I'd tell him every last detail about my car, including that 1 inch stain on the carpet. That's how it is on CL. There is an inherent trust. It's this kind of trust you gain by being a long time member of this board.
I know somethings about Daizenlex's activiity on this board. Somethings I have been told. Other things I have learned first hand. I will relay a story from personal experience.
The first time I met Daizenlex was at the NE meet about 1 year ago. We were all bumming around Daizen's car and talking. Daizen reveals that his traction control wasn't working and was inquiring how to fix it. Remember, this was prior to him replacing his rear end. It was either me or someone else who asked how he fried his traction control. Daizen revealed that he hadn't secured his battery connections properly and they came loose while he was driving. The negative terminal touched the postitive. Daizen said it was a massive short and the car shut down while he was driving. Luckily, he said only the traction control was fried.
Now if you do a search in for sale forums, you will see that Daizen never revealed his traction control was fried. You will also find a post by me asking if he ever fixed it. He never replied. Now you can see in this post that Daizenlex LIED to DX3 when he said the traction control did't work because of the supra rear end.
Other highlights during that day included him finally figuring out that his spoiler was scraping off paint because he was too lazy to install the 3rd screw. And him repeatedly asking me "How do I make my car sound like that?" without ever inquiring about performance gains, but I won't hold this against him. It's just a pet peeve of mine when people care more about looks of their car than performance.
There are other stories out there, but they aren't for me to tell.
P.S Here is the link for his sale. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...hreadid=101297
You can see I asked how much it cost him to fix the traction control.. I didn't want to troll his sale but I also didn't want a buyer to get ripped off so I stated it vaguely. By the way, I'm the guy in green with his back to the camera in the picture

PROMETHEUS - A.K.A. Daizenlex - will not be able to respond further to this thread, pat himself on the back and tell everyone what a good guy he is, and stir the pot. Upper administration found the match earlier today.
now let's put it back on topic so we don't have to lock it. I can only ask once please
