Default Newage sti spoiler for £40

these muppets dont know what theyre selling so grab a bargain quick. They have listed it for a classic, but its not, its for a 2001 onwards.

I've seen this so I know its genuine, it just needs paint and a bit of repair.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-rea...#ht_500wt_1050

I'm not the seller, I just know who they are and they're clueless as to what the parts are and their value. The 6 speed flywheels they sell retail at Graham Goodes for £500 and they sell em for £150.

Bet it wont stay on long.

When I saw it someone else was there who knows more about them than me. They had a classic one and a newage and he said both were genuine. Even if its non-genuine its still VERY cheap but the underneath has all the correct mounting points etc and i'm sure its stamped "made in japan".

What makes me chuckle is they have 2x EJ25 blocks for sale, and they dont have any!!

TT, if you look you can see the slight lip where the bottom and top parts join together.

I will get it sorted out and then decide what to do with it.

Bear in mind that is for the disc only, but still a very good price and the 6 speed flywheels are a very good price as well.

if you look up the xspec stuff via google you'll find the brakes and clutches are actually very good. Problem is, the stuff has been in storage for 3 years and the owners sold up but the stuff is still a bargain. The brembo brake pads are a bargain too.

Well I am his bitch tomorrow as I'm off up to Maidenhead with him to pick up the 6 speed setup he has bought, but one good turn deserves another.

Plus my Zunsport lower grille is on the way, should be with me on Monday.

thats because they have no idea of the value of stuff. They have a "carbon effect" front strut brace for £35, when they sold a genuine Sti Carbon one for £32 the other day and a Pink Sti one for £18.

Keep your eye on their shop, and grab whatever you can if it comes up cheap!

Think it's bankrupt stock though so anything they get is a bonus, and probably no warranty on anything. Some bargains to be had though, tempted by a spare clutch myself. Are the flywheels they list std spec or uprated as I don't know much about them.

Not bankrupt mate, they just sold it off as they closed down so now its being sold off. Once its gone its gone kinda thing.

To be fair, the lads there are good because they're not trying to rip people off. Theres some genuine bargains to be had and some very good spec "new but old stock" stuff to be had, you'd be a bit nuts to miss out.

the alloy wishbones they sell are an example. Brand new pair with the anti lift, ball joint and bushes fitted for a silly price.

I would say the best thing to do would be to pop down or call them, the ebay shop is only a sniff of what they have in as i've been down and seen the stuff. Its not the best organised place, more of a pickers paradise!!

Daz1968, they only do 1 flywheel which is a billet and tufrided 6 speed lightened one, proper quality but not many left. I was hoping they had a 5 speed but they had sold out (not suprised at that price!)

Just had to double check with my boss,any xspect items that are new are covered by a full refund if faulty,broke or your not happy etc,just the same as any business covered by the distance selling act,the used Xspec parts that are used are not covered,the items off the cars we have in that we have broken are also not covered,but if we say it works and doesn't you will of course be given a full refund or replacement. As for bankcrupt stock,my boss shipped the guys out to Australia last month and ended up buying all the stock,plus as we are authorised traders on here we have 96 Walbro 255 fuel pumps for sale,brand new and £45 delivered,or external bosh type at £35

You might be better cancelling the payment and ringing the number on his post mate. They can take payment by card I think, but you have to ring another number. They are sorting the paypal at the moment so give it a day for them to sort it coz I had the same problem.
