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.
You not wanting to keep a spare charger incase the G60 goes wrong? Thats what my plan is.
I certainly am.
I got one just a complete standard thing tho..
I am actually looking to get 2 x g60 chargers!
Ah i see. Im keeping my R1 and looking to sell my standard one soon.
I wish a could keep it
But a have charger plus porting , brackets belts map sensor pulley ... Not to mention 1341 bottom end gaskets and bolts...
I've guessed it at £2,500 so r1 has to go :(
i see, bit different as i already got the engine done. im looking at £1200 and thats everything.
Could a be a pain in the ass and ask you to send me a pm or post here your shopping list.. What you need etc..
You've obv got some info in looking for.
For eg do a use g60 outlet?
Yeah i will give you a pm.
really tempted by the standard charger,who serviced it 10k ago,where are you based and how low will you go pricewise? Cheers-Nat

£570.00 delivered to your door with tracking and signed

Hi buddy. Has the R1 charger been run on a non-standard pulley do you know?
Would you take 500 posted ;D
Cheers.
I'm not 100% sure
Either yoof or Peteg40 may shed some light?...
500 is bit low.
It's £495 plus vat for just th r1 spec from jabba
This your getting a whole charger
not since rebuild. did about 350 run in miles on a stock pulley
Its actually £495 incl VAT im sure! £500 and a bit more plus postage seems a fair price. Better to have the money coming to you rather than someone sending theirs to jabba.
i wrote £495 plus vat...
im sure after the postage costs its just about £600..
£550 for a charger thats been R1 plus treatment from PeteG40 and arguably better parts used..
its worth the money all day im sure of it ..!
No i wasn't saying is it plus vat im saying it is including vat. It says here: http://www.jabbasport.com/superchargers.php
If you speak to brian he will cover the postage too so it will only cost £517.
Parts are all the same, i think, just a case if jabba actually replace what they say they will, as some people have experienced problems.
ye a also heard this .. known to miss some apex seals and more...
Well i have all the old seals and bearing to prove all mine were done when Pete done this for me ..
Good wee service they have goin!
Never need to prove petes work.
I think the missing of parts from jabba was in the 'bad old days'
Things like that stick in people's heads..!
Where are located buddy?
Scotland
Fife
Ky7 5
Ok not exactly local then? Would love this, but can only offer you another £500 posted!
Find another £50 I'll post it Tuesday
sorry pal, I think £500 is it's money, if you want a sale at that, then I'm waiting.
To be honest I don't think you'd find a freshly serviced R1 for £550 again, looking at the freshly serviced Stage 4 G60 chargers on ebay they're over £700
Yeah but they ask a stupid price. Only cost £440 to service and stage 4 it. Plus they dont use high rpm bearings.
that's a G60 tho... Not As if this 1 has been snapped up to quick either.
You see that g60 one with the bbm wide belt on ebay? Only at 260 last time i looked.
G60 chargers are way more common here than G40 chargers, it won't be often you'll find a fresh G40 charger with R1 spec for £550 again. Jezz I have noticed on G-Laders the price tends to shoot up hugely in the last 10 mins, more so than other bits and bobs I trade with on ebay - quite strange really.
way i see it is.
You can either send your charger to Jabba - pay £495 inc vat + £23 postage so £518 to have your charger done to r1 spec. OR you could pay £550 posted for this - so essentially you're paying £32 for a supercharger???
If this doesn't snap up ill likely put it on ebay with a reserve.
i thought £550 was a very fair price..
You could pay £300 for a fresh standard charger then another £518 to have R1 spec...

When you put it like that, it is a bargain really!! Especially as these are getting rare now.
Would you take 550 posted mate??
Yes, it will be basic charger , no pulley as a do not have a standard pulley just toothed.
It will how ever come with a bracket coz I'm nice like that. Lol
Oooo what bracket lol?? I have a set of PSD pulleys for it anyway bud.
I forgot to ask, is the key way in a good condition??
Is paypal ok??
its the bracket that comes attached to charger..
key way is in PERFECT condition no damage at all ..
only thing is the Outlet is not included as this is needed elsewhere.
But the Advert is for the charger itself.
Paypal is fine.
to be paid with +4% or as a gift to avoid charges
Is the timing belt cover included?
I have an outlet i can use anyway mate.
Could you PM me your paypal buddy.
Yes timing cover.
ok on its way
Is it Sold?
Sorry SOLD
Can be locked DK ?
