What happened to Christian Rado's TTGS400?
#32
dunno, sorry. im more upbeat today
im serious though if i pass this to you, i wanna work on splitting the cost or something like that for the turbo kits.
what happened to Mo, i saw some of his old posts a few weeks ago i think and he hasnt logged in, in like 6 years.

i think im gonna, im trying to at least Chris. i really wish dude had sent me that email a week, a day,hell even 5 mins before i bought all those parts from sewell/figs/ebay/a couple others
BUT i may be able to finagle the $ still, im just kinda waiting on my bonus to see where im at....although i wont get the bonus till the end of the month IF we get a bonus this year
I DID get a email from him last the motos is coming with the aem and the custom harness also...so thats a huge plus.im STILL waiting on pics/specs and to find out if the engine was drained as if its been sitting on the shelf for 2 years with fluid in it, i may not want this as im assuming it will need a rebuild if it i was. also kindly requested a dated pic in it showing its recent... hey better safe than sorry.
neways im stoked bout trying to get this but i may end up selling a bunch of stuff (my BNIB TTE lip, my G35 wheels,my figs stuff,my retro,MAYBE my one and only Carbon fiber engine cover i had custom made, and whatever else i can sell to help ease the cost of this, again i dunno and i dont wanna jump ahead of myself. i am trying to get this just hoping for ONCE everyone rolls my way....

lol ty for timely response,just one follow up i can think of ATM was the car sold or wrecked? he shoulda kept it that car was the business
brian
Car was in an accident. The motor & transmission are still available at a SMOKING DEAL!!

Rob Cardona
really, what kind of a smoking deal are we talking about? i know the motor is fully built, how bout the tranny?
if i get serious i will find out the specs of everything
brian
Probably would sell everything for $3K
--
Rob Cardona
wow...ok now you got my attention.when you get a minute, can i get the specs on the engine/tranny. AEM stand alone come with it? pics? funny i may pick this up or even have the person lined up to get it, if i dont
brian
Yes, AEM Stand alone & custom harness included. Honestly I can show you the bill for those 2 items and it was actually more than $3000 :-(
I’ll work on getting you some pics & specs if your really serious.

I'm DEF interested i wish i had gotten your email about 2 weeks prior before i spent $2,600 i would have snap bought this. i might have to move some things around but i should feasibly be able to get this....just gotta focus on Christmas for the 2 girls and the old lady before this though and then this hell maybe i can make this, my christmas present. lol
so yes, if that didn't sound like it, i am DEF interested. let me know bout the pics and specs....if you take a pic would you mind taking a pic with something showing the date if its not to much of a issue. also i have friends near Torrance ca when i proceed with this, would it be ok to have them check it out for me? im assuming this is where it is? if its in reading though, i actually was born in erie pa and have family in reading still,would be ok for them to peek at it.
do you know if the engine was drained or if its still full of fluid? turbos need a rebuild?
brian
OK...I ****ed up.
Chris said $3K for the trans. Not the entire chunk. Reason being...there $14K+ wrapped up in the complete set-up I was offering!!
If you’d like more details please call me and we’ll go over everything. Please note, we’re not trying to make a KILLING off this just need more than $3,000 for everything. I’m thinking we’d like to get somewhere around $5,000 + S&H for everything...Motor, Trans & the AEM Harness with Computers.
Keep me posted.
Thank you,
Rob Cardona
ok, i will pass the info onto my buddy thomas...i was def in for 3k....hell even at 5k its a great deal.
so since you didnt mention it, the turbos/intercoolers/piping not come with this deal for 5k?
brian
No, the intercooler & most of the piping was damaged in the accident. I believe turbos are included.
--
Rob Cardona
ty rob,
well, i will pass this onto thomas....for clarity can we find out if the turbos ARE included?
so what happened to this car? i mean like how did it get wrecked? any pics?
hows the new car development coming along that thing looks crazy man.
brian
that was the last email we exchanged earlier tonight
i could raise the 3k in the next 2 weeks selling off a few things but 5k is gonna be a minute more for me....not to mention S&H, install,tune,IC and piping just have to see how much my Christmas bonus is now
