Yeh it was a good drive, inspection went great the car is in great condition. It was all good untill the buyer started getting second thoughts on the car(supposedly). We agreed on a price of $38,500 before i left and the was delivered as described then he decides he is not interested at that price and low balls me at $35,000. I literally told him to go f*&k himself, he kept coming up with things that he would want to change on the car as its not how he wants it which were all personal preference items.

Anyway i made him pay me for expenses and we parted ways, i had been offered $37,000 before i put the OS Giken gearbox in just last week. Anyway, having put myself between a rock and a hard place, their were events that i wanted to be home for last night so i bit the bullet and took $35,500. Anyway we complete the deal for which i had driven from Adelaide and he refuses to drive me to the airport, long story short $100 taxi ride, missed plane and there were no more flights direct or connecting for the rest of the evening. So $90 accomodation and another plane fair this morning and my sale price was really starting to hit home

So in conclusion, i have learned to never put myself between a rock and a hard place again. I had been offered more from other parties but i became impatient and just wanted the car gone. In the end it was a shit experience from which i have learned alot and will never allow myself to be stung by underhanded tactics again.

That's crap. :teehee: When i bought my car from a fellow sau'er in victoria, i deposited $500 bucks into his account straight away (sight unseen), he drove it from victoria to adelaide, i paid for his ticket back, and we set a fixed price before he left (no negotiation)..he came to regency with me, it past inspection then did the cash swap at the bank, then dropped him off in the city... couldn't have been more straight forward and we were both happy.

Guess that's what you get with dodgy people.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
