guys,

do you know the process for buying a car that has finance owing on it? Seems like a catch-22. The current owner cant pay it off until he gets my money, but i dont want to give him the money until it's free of the debt.

does he get his finance company to provide a note of clear sale or something that indemnifies me against his debt?

thanks,

sean.

If the owner owes 10k and you want to buy the car for 20k, you get 2 cheques, 1 for 10k to the finance company directly and 1 to the owner for 10k ....

He has to sort out a final payment amount with the finance company first, then you pay that, and you pay him....

what if the car owes more than its being sold for? say it was bought new, but is now worth less? like a VY commodore for example. bought for $30k or whatever but now are only about $15k?

No deal!

or wait till the owner pay off the debt.

a friend was about to buy a sti for 33k, but owners owes also 33k

so they taking it to the bank, ask to write a cheque and pay right away to the financial company!

but didnt went through cos it was runing on 3 cyc!

yep thx for that. We checked with his finance company and they said similar. I could either pay the amount owing to them and the balance to the seller, or wait for the seller to pay it off, if he had the means. Suncorp finance for example will accept payment by cheque or BPay.

I told the seller it was too much hassle (and still some risk) for me to be dealing with his finance company, so i've put off the purchase until he pays them out in full and REVS has registered no debt.

Actualy its less risk buying a car that has money owing on it. This way you know for sure you are going to get a clear tittle. Just pay the bank first and the balance to the owner, very simple.

my bro brought a R34 GTT with finance owing on it.

this is what he did:

-Done all the required checks etc(car, stolen, ownership)

-Call up revs the day before and purchased a certificate(transaction of sale must be completed in 24hours)

-Go to the bank(the financial institution where the original owner took out the loan) and pay off the remaining amount

-Go to VicRoads, change details and pay Stamp duty(4% in Vic, 3% in NSW)

-Pay the remaining balance to the owner(if applicable)

-A week later, the original owner should recieve a letter stating theres no finance owing on the vehicle. get a photocopy of this.

everything should be sweet

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
