    Looking for opinions on a situation on buying over the internet

    in General Automotive Discussion

    Thanks for the reply, thats what I said, but apon offering 50% of the repair bill to the turbo, they then found another fault saying the Manifold is not TRUST and want a full refund. One corner follows another.. It will be never ending where do i stop.

    And I cant afford to give them there money back.unless the Japanese supplier would be willing to take it back..which they wont as it has been well overdue...but at the end of the day it all bolts up and WAS in full working condition when the good were received.. I would understand a full refund should be available if i was a company but im not, merely a individual who was trying to help...

    if they threaten you, threaten them bak and tell them youll kill someone close to them, that usualy works for me.

    dont say that, another twist to the story is that it was actually a forum member here. (not well known) who got this kit for a friend of his who is apparently gang related, and actually has threatened me with this, i have never spoken to the intended buyer only his middleman (forum member) who does the negociating. I have tried numerous times to ask for the direct ph# with no luck...

    which would put the blaim on whom...not me..but looks like i will be the one who cop's the most of it...

    Hi Guys,

    Wasnt going to do this but the problem has got out of control.

    What would you do if you ordered something from Japan through a wrecker for somebody else who knew nothing more than it was a Trust TD06-20g turbo kit (I mean it came with Trust Td06-20g turbo and a manifold which had been adapted to fit the turbo so it would bolt straight up. i.e Kit?)

    A customer paid $2400 for the kit (which included 1week warrenty once in Australia), which was done all via email while in Japan, they asked me if any turbo kit was available for a MR2. Which I then found in a option magazine in Japan for sale and purchased it. I asked them if they wanted it sent to them direct or to me and I would look after customers and pay the duties. They asked for me to do the dirty work. Which i DIDNT charge for, as $2400 included the 5% + 10% tax I had to then pay.

    Once arriving to Australia, I contacted the person to tell them it was here. I continued to contact them for a period of 6months but during this time they told me they wanted me to sell it for them without them even seeing the kit, They were told I wasnt going to do that. And to pick it up ASAP!.

    In the end they finally came to pick it up and when they did they said the manifold wasnt TRUST but an adapted manifold to suit the turbo, as well as that they told me the turbo was stuffed. But they would have had warrenty and option for full refund back 6months ago.

    Now I have received threats etc etc...saying I ripped them off and i told them it was this and that...

    what would you do? give them there money back? or leave it as they were the ones who were too lazy to pick it up and left it too late. I have tried to see if i could get there money back in Japan. with no reply, as they gave me 1week once here..not 6months.

    My solution was to offer to go 1/2's in a full rebuild of the turbo. As they claim that is broken, which I know is definally, well was definally not the case.

    Please help?

    RB20det to RB26dett Convertion

    in Forced Induction Performance

    Posted

    Hi Guys,

    I am thinking about buying a sil-eighty and doing a Rb20 conversion. and hopefully rb30/20 or rb30/25 conversion. And using the left over parts from my rb26 to fill the rb20

    So far i know/think i can use the following:

    Rb26 Std Cams

    Rb26 Std Injectors

    Z32 Airflow meter.

    I sold my std crank and rods, but might be able to get it another. if i did this what compression and would it take it to 2.4? (in a Rb20)

    Is there anything else i can use? i plan on using PFC or Fcon.

    maybe Sydney kid u can help.

    thank you in advance
