yeah these pumps are cheap chinese imitations that work onyl 1/3 of real walbro's. i brought one and realised straight away cause the pump had no nome or serial numbers on it. if you brought it off ebay than notify ebay.

dude... read the other threads before you make one up. We already have a thread on his pumps.

I'm leaving this one up for another 24 hours before its merged with the other thread.

..and also blacklisted from ebay by the looks of things. Make sure he never trades on ebay ever again.

The scum bag also tries to disguise HIM self as a female , he was selling cheap seats on ebay and i caught him out!

yeh- sorry to here you got caught as well. Dont use the pump , they are definetly rubbish.

GUESS WHAT! I threathend him with this Email, after another Email outlining that I found out he may be selling dodgy stuff and I found heaps of bad shit about him.....

Well you must understand the reasons of my confusion. Why have you been banned from so many forums and listed as a bad trader? After searching your name all I got was BAD info on how you have ripped people off. Now if this is not true, don't get pissed at me, its just what I found on the internet, but when ALL the info I find is bad its is obviously a reason of concern for me. Plus the fact that your pump does not have any walbro makings on it at all and did not come with any walbro documentation makes me believe that it is a fake pump. I dont wan't my 2JZ engine to blow up becuase of your pump. I have contacted TI and if they can't verify its a real non factory second I will have to ask for a full refund due to false advertising and contact the relevant authorities.

He prompty gave my money back in fear of me destoying his E bay rep. He is GONE of ebay, after I finish my feed back and link to this site everyone will know who he is. He was so worried he gave my money back before I had even sent the crap pump back. I still have it. What should I do with it? Burn it?

    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY
