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.

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

^^^^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.

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