Ebay...What can it do for us? - Page 2 - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

vr4operator · 05-03-2008, 08:46 AM

not to get off topic, i saw the subject and looked in. Ebay can lower it prices. I used to sell NASCAR stuff on the internet before there was an Ebay. It was called UP4SALE.com and it was dirt cheap. Ebay started up and started buying and closing down competitors sites. Along came PayPal, which soon got bought up by Ebay. their prices are outrageous now. Its impossible to sell little things and make any kind of money unless you rape them with shipping charges.
Anyway, thats my rant as per the threat title, lol.
But i've picked up a Walpro 255 pump and a polished y pipe that were fair enough

I bought a spoiler from Mike's auto something or another which was suppose to be in perfect condition, It was a mess. The one it was going to replace was in much better condition.

driveline, and a rack and pinion....got driveline due to klunking sound from rear end but it still klunks

...got a rack and pinion due to leaking powersteering fluid turns out it was just a hose...so waste of money

Ebay Precat eliminators are kick ass. I think the company is TopSpeed or something like that. Anyway, the install was fairly simple, minus taking out the stock shit. I had to grind down the bracket that goes to the front O2 housing, which I hear is the same as the DN pipes.

I myself bought a dirt cheap body kit...Didn't expect great quality for the price ( 450 shipped) but I work at a bodyshop so that didn't matter much...The quality was indeed awful , I called them and they sent me another kit for free...I picked out better parts and sold the rest to some young local kid..Bottom line - if you don't intend to do all the body work yourself - don't buy them, in the end they will turn out to be more expensive than the good quality ones...But for someone like me that was a steal, 4 piece bodykit for 250...

i got what i remember being a west wings(something like that) 3000gt spoiler to put on my stealth, it was about $100 shipped and after i got it it came with damaged brake light, and it actually looked like it's been fixed before. It was so cheap that i guess it was a decent deal. Unfortunately ebay doesn't keep history for too long so there is no way to look it up.
EDIT: i just realized that i wondered into the turbo section so this is probably a useless post lol
