G40 R1 charger (fresh rebuild) & standard charger
« on: March 21, 2012, 12:19:50 pm »
Right time to bite the bullet and put myself out there!

Im going down the G60 route and am now tryin to fund it included selling one of my cars :(


This is a Jabbasport R1 spec charger, then was rebuilt by yoof who i bought it off a year ago with 0 miles
he kindly got Peteg40 to run a couple hundred miles on it for me.

The charger has NEVER been used on the road since, i've started it a few times in the car but no boost just idle.
Now a have all the old seals and bearings and hopefully the pictures do the talking!









A Have a standard G40 charger for sale also which i can post pics if you like!


PRICE R1 Charger £550 (£50 more than you would pay to have jabba do it plus have a spare charger)
And for the Standard charger I'm looking for £150 with no provable history but i know it was making excellent boost on the car and was serviced roughly 10k before removed.
