Can you guys help me out? I just won an ebay auction on a HKS T45S kit. I don't know if this guy is real or a rip off auction. Anyone know about this kit? here is the link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3ABN%3AUS%3A1

ITEM NUMBER : 7912179979

I don't wanna get rip off, please help. He email me and says he is now in UK on a job. That makes me feel weird. Thanks!

 

I have installed that style IC before, it is not ideal(gets no airflow) , the kit itself is genuine and old school, wether he is honest how would anyone no for sure??

 

I won't be putting that cooler on since I already when V mount. But need help to know if this is good tho.

 

Those look like pics of a kit that Laujesse(I htink thats his username) had for sale a while ago. website jspec4you.com or somhting similar.

 

If you've already won it, you need to pay regardless. You should have worried about it before you won the auction.

How would we know if the guy is honest, if the auction is legitimate? He has 30 positive feedback. Make your own conclusions.

 

I had posted this information on the for sale section because i had some doubts.I email him too and told me the same thing that his job moved him to the UK so that made me think twice and told me what was my highest offer and he could sell it to me.This exact same turbo kit was on ebay about one month ago with all the same info but the other auction seemed real and it left for a little over 2 grand.

It is the same one i remember it and it had the same pics

 

A little while ago people started getting into other peoples ebay accounts and were selling other members cars.You just have to be a little carefull on ebay these days.

 

It looks like my T-45S turbo. You probably won't like it though...it's quite laggy. Expect to rev past 8500 (on a ported motor) because it will want to rev PAST that

 

Lets put it this way man. I saw your post on the for sale section about the kit and I went ahead and contacted the guy. I asked him if he would take paypal he told me no, I asked him if I could have it picked up, and he asked me where I lived, I said massachusetts but I have a buddy in arizona who would pick it up for me, he then replied he will be out of the country, and that I couldnt pick it up, and he wanted me to bank wire transfer the money. Ive been taken for $2500 once by tim worley on there on a t78 turbo kit, this smells the same to me.

 

Oh. I understand that. I'm just saying that's the risk you take. He should have thought of this before he won it, I mean.

 

Yes, i know what you mean.He should have thought of it before he won the item.
