turbo kit for sale
 

hey im selling a custom turbo kit, kit is good, came from my friend rx8 he hit a deer, and car got written off, all the kit needs is a intercooler and fuel management. the reason for the intercooler is cause the deer took it out, and he wants to keep the fuel management, he spend 4300 bucks on the kit, letting it go after 1000km for 1600 bucks or best offer, shipping will be up to the buyer, but we will help where we can, pm me asap needs to go...

Who's the manufacturer do u have any pix of the kit

:suspect:

nj west.

You are going to get plenty questions i would advise you get specifics or tell your friend to join the boards and post up specifics.It will make your sale all the easier.

+1...

pmed

Pmm'd

aaaaaaaaaannddd you're technically not allowed to sell stuff for "friends" on the forums.

IIRC.

Mmmmm, turbo kit... mmmmm, my next upgrade, finally... need more info!

I'd say, due to vague phrasing, he's still within the rules. He says the kit came from his friends car. Never really says he's selling it for a friend. The closest he comes to saying that is when he said "we are selling it".

Though anyone who is smart is going to want to know more before they buy it. Pics will definitely help.

my AT wants a turbo, post pics/ specs ASAP!

+1^ on that my friend +1 I just wish this guy would hook us up with some info!!

From what he's pm'd me its a rear mounted t3t4 garrett turbo but other that that im still waiting for more info and pics myself.

There was a Canadian, david8, that was building a STS rear turbo.

Is this the one?

^^^^Im sorry I have no idea who's car its coming off of. If its David8's why isn't he just selling it himself? I haven't heard from the OP since late last night. You would think getting pictures and some info wouldn't be very hard? Only thing im worried about with a rear mounted kit is rain. When hot metal is covered in cold rain water, it warps. Am I wrong?

Also another member, Spence15 said he was gonna buy this exact kit but didn't get a very good feeling about the OP as he just went back and forth with emails, never got pictures, and never got detailed info. Not saying this is a scam thread cause the OP does have a some legitimate thread posts but I think until he puts up some pics and provides us with sufficient info we should all be very careful.

Yea I didn't really want to get involved jonni44 lol but I guess thats too late haha.

My gut says buyer beware,

At the same time, who am I to judge this may be a deal, I just want people to be cautious.
This may be the deal of a life time, or equally the scam of a lifetime.

but it seemed to me from the MANY emails that were sent back and forth that this wasn't going to be a secure transaction.

Well, at least he's been here for a little while and has some posts. The biggest thing I'd worry about would be condition and quality of parts, which is why pictures are needed.

Yeah, he definitely has legit posts which is a good start but like I said, I haven't heard a peep out of him in a while, HEY TURBO RX 8 THROW US FRICKIN BONE HERE!!!!

throws a frikie dikie bone

hey, sorry guys im working on gettting some pics, i broke my arm 2 days ago playing hockey so i havent felt very well, and i have a 6month old baby girl at home, so tonight after work ill get pictures, sorry for the wait.

^ Ouch been there done that guys i think we need to throw him a fricken bone...literally and figuratively.

Wow bro sorry to hear that man get well soon!
On a lighter note Rx8ya that was pretty funny

Sold!!!

i bought the turbo kit. i can understand some of the skepticisim some you had about this posting but i am here to tell you zane is a stand up guy and a good businessman! everything about this transaction went well and if anyone is thinking about doing business with him i say you can do it without fear or worry. also i got a really good deal! hopefully i will be hitting up mazda maniac in a couple weeks for turbo mapping and finally be boosted

I'm glad your deal went well. He sent me some trashed wheels and tires that were described as "perfect".

^lol

so what did you buy ? have you got the kit yet ?

i did get the turbo and i am at this point very dissapointed. i didnt get what i paid for and not what he said i was getting. i have been in contact with him and he is supposed to be correcting the problem so i shall see and will repost to let everyone know how it turns out but at this time i would avoiding transactions with him for right now

oh dear - don't like where this is going . what did you get ?

he said in the original post that he was selling a turbo "for a friend" what i got was the beat up yellow turbo that was on his car and some other junk i now have a dispute open with paypal and i think mongoose should do the same

This seems to be a trend with him. I just contacted the credit card company that paypal uses (I used this to pay for the item) and they said that they will pursue him legally if the problem is not resolved. My friend, Jake, in Winnipeg is also willing to file suit for me - so one way or the other....

I know he hasn't had a chance to get on here yet - so it seems early to condemn him, but if you guys saw these wheels/tires (look at pics in post on page 1) - You'd agree that he intentionally misrepresented them.

?
 

yes misrepresentation is the name of his game. yes he sent me a turbo. no it wasnt what he said it was. if i was going to rip someone off i wouldnt have sent anything at all so he isnt totally dishonest but he definately wasnt up front about anything

i think turbo kits usually have more than that

wow haven't been on rx-8 club in forever this guy IS A SCAM PERIOD, LYING ABOUT EVERYTHING I KNEW MY GUT WAS RIGHT.

-Sorry about your loss

--What guy trys to sell a custom turbo kit and knows "NOTHING" about the rx8... read some of his created threads.. this Zane guy is a joke.

There was always an excuse and he needs to be caught for scamming.

he did send me a package that is supposed to have the rest of what he didnt send the first time. it will be here monday. he also said he would refund some of my money to gat the welding done that is needed i will let you know how it all plays out

Ok. While I feel that he misrepresented these wheels/tires - totally misrepresented, I received the partial refund that I asked for today. I hope he makes right on your turbo kit.

What the hell kind of turbo is THAT?!? lol

lol that's what I was thinking..

It's like an exhaust system made from home depot!

LMAO wtf is that.

Thank god I read this...
