Guest bennyvader Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 ha ha ok man but if ya steel it off me i'll send you some bad karma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kslb Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 How much are they and need a link to the advert or some more info and I am sure someone up this way will take a look for you. I will if they are close enough but I would give a wide birth to untested second hand tubbies unless from a trusted source. Ask the guy if he will get them tested at a local garage like wallace performance and if they test ok you will pay for the test and if not you won't. What have they come off of and why?

Supragoose Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 aye that was my thinking,standard procedure to have tubbies tested and even service for selling purposes...especially if theyre HKS Twins...sounds too good to be true for my liking though i havent seen the price yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 ??????? the pm wasnt that bad really, it was just i didnt like the fact that he instigated that i was going to buy them for myself, when i have an N/A and was actually going to do him a favour by having a look. i apoligise if it sounded like i was having ago at him, when i wasnt. just had 1 of those days at work, where there nothing but complete b*****d's in and out all day at the heliport, and him saying that just annoyed me more! sorry bud and good luck if they are genuine, good condition and that cheap, cause if they are then thats a find and a half!
