actually doesnt look pure crap,,,, depends on the price I guess. but most of the stuff these days is made in a half dozen factories in china, asia and remarked with logos in the very end.. unless it is made in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, USA with country stamps on it.

but really for the cost of some of the stuff it can be ok.... not everyone has 10k for a pair of tweeters made in Denmark...lol

the name is still a direct rip off ,,,isnt it...lol

Nice one Cara.

Has anyone ever sold a car via paypal?

Just had a guy say he wants to buy my car and pay via pay pal and pick it up later?

Or is it a scam :blink:

scam

What makes you say that? How can it be a scam? He wants to pay first and collect later.

yeah thats what i thought lol.... they msg me through carsales.

I prefer to purchase something using PayPal in case the seller is running a scam. If I deposit funds directly into a sellers account it is extremely difficult & time consuming to get that money back if the goods never turn up (happened to me once on a SAU group buy) or if the goods are not as described (again happened to me once on SAU). If I had used PayPal then at least I have a conflict resolution process to go through and PayPal can get my money back a lot easier. Ask the buyer why he wants to use PayPal? And what are you worried about if he wants to pay first and collect the car later?

I don't really trust the whole process of buying a car over the internet without even looking at it, even though the person seems to be in n.s.w they also said "im going away for abit out of town and want to pay via paypal".

Seems crap if you want to pay that much for a R33 GTR without looking at it. lol

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
