Not wanting to fall out with you mate or cast aspersions but just wanted to say I think its a little bit naughty advertising it as -

'Rebuilt Supercharger - Ported to stage 4, fitted with new oil seals, bearings and kluber grease, apex seals were not replaced as were within the limits, rebuild done a few months ago, unused since - £350'

When it has had only the centre scroll bearing replaced (the other 4 were untouched and condition unknown) and 5 oil seals.  We put some cheaper nitrile seals in that i've never used as you agreed to test them to see if they were up to the job or would sh1t themselves as soon as used.

In addition it also had some damage to the outer side charger casing.

The world of G40s is very small and the same amount people buy / sell to each other - so in order to avoid any future problems please could everyone be as accurate as possible in describing their goods otherwise it can lead to problems with us admins sorting out disputes!

The mk1 golf oil cooler- does it just need a sandwich plate to work and nothing else? i got one of them lay about somewhere :D
I'll have it if that's all it needs! How much inc. postage?

Cheers

All you need for oil cooling is a cooler, lines n a sammich plate, either thermostatic or non. The former being the better choice. Postage is 8 quid via courier, so whatever its up at plus that:-)

£28 for an oil cooler kit sounds like a bargain. What's your paypal address?
Can they just leave it there if no one's home? I'm at work all day every day pretty much. I'm not in any rush for it either if that makes any difference.

Just to clarify all I'll need is a sandwich plate to make the kit work, yeah?

Yeah the sammich plate will need appropriate bsp fittings to match the lines but thats it.
I am assuming your sammich plate has.the adaptor to extend the thread for the oil filter. And the seal is in good condition.

However the adaptor and seal are only a few quid

Poopal is yousafn@gmail.com

Unlikely they will leave it. Outside, normally signed for, but they will leave a card. And you can rearrange with the depot or inform them to leave outside at your liability :-)
