I will not part out this vehicle , so please dont ask.
Call me (Stephan) at work 416-259-6500 or at www.nextlevelautomotive.ca and leave a message (with a contact number).
If anyone is interested, make sure to ask to see if you can do a compression test.
he was a really cool guy until I asked about that and when I asked to put it up on a friend’s shop hoist, he got offended about it and somehow (for some reason) accused me of not paying full price for his car (I never even gave a price).
no knowledge of milage on the RB, no idea on compression.
Really knowledgeable guy otherwise and could still be a good drift machine waiting to happen.
1- Why should I go to some else garage - when I own a automotive repair garage myself. Here’s my web address www.nextlevelautomtive.ca
2- What is a compression test going to tell you. Ask any mechanic, they will tell you. It’s an indicator, to see if the engine compression is low in a cylinder.
What do you compare it too - there is no spec.
On the other hand, if the engine runs rough wouldn’t that lead you to believe that something is wrong. Then one would say it deserves a better look, but only if one’s still interested in the purchase of the vehicle.
3- I also stated, that I would be willing to pull a plug. But only after a deposit was taken on the sale of this vehicle. Furhtermore, I mentioned that the sale of this vehicle would be conditional to his satisfaction (of the spark plug)
Clearly, there has been a misunderstanding between us two. But to mention this, and to broadcast it on this forum … seems to me to be a bit childish.
i am sorry to get involved in this matter, but if i were I dropping 10000$ plus on ANY car i would require a leakdown and compression test minimum. There is a compression spec, if even 1 cilinder is lower than the optimal range even if the motor runs strong it has an increased chance of shorten life. Or if you prefer say you have a thicker head gasket giving all cilinders lower compression…within reason. Say 4 are 175ish, 1 is 130 and the last is 90psi, which is QUITE common on the rb’s as they tend to run lean in #6 and fry rings due to poor plenum design. A compression test gives somone the heads up.
Would you be offended if i was to ask for a coil pack test? After purchasing 1 car with a factory rb and 2 sets of coils, i would deem it MADITORY for any potential owner. As the car can run perfectly fine until it’s warm then for what seems like no reason it starts acting up.
You’re unwillingness as it seems to go the little extra mile for potential customers for a shop owner just leaves many to think there is INDEED something amiss with the situation
I understand you own a shop and that you are probably fairly busy and are trying to aviod tire kickers, but turning away potential buys for a car like this where the market is 19and 20 year old kids with no money isnt the smartest move.
dont get in a tiff, money does talk, but if i’m looking at cars, and have a few in mind in my price range, do i put a deposite on every car just to have a compression test done on them? no way. AS for the other shops you do not know, i DO not know you, how do i know you’re honest. Dont take this as a personal attack. The purpose of having the car taken to another shop is to verify your statments and to besure I or anyone as the buyer do not get screwed.
Simple tests like a compression test on ALL 6 cilinders and coil pack tests take no time at all, BUT should be done at your conveincince, not in a parking lot, or in another shop. But if a potential buyer is interested, you only have to do it once, keep your records and have them handy incase somone asks. It is afterall a modified used car.
I do agree that if somone wants to have a second opinion done on the car; which they have every right to want done, then yes a deposite to show more than JUST interest should be made.
