    I have decided to buy a second hand superjet and mod it from there. I dont care if the motor is blown and paint is shit im after a project i can build up.


    Anybody got anything lying around and can hook a bruva up.


    Thanks

    Most of the round nose SJ that come up on trademe are around the 4000-5500...... What are you planning to do with ur SJ once you get it?

    pipe, footholds, UMI steering, MSD. Usual shit. I havent seen like any 05 or 04 skis for sale. How are these priced?

    I can get a brand new 06 for 8800 and he wants 5500 for his 98. If its like this i would happily pay an extra $3000 so it hasnt been thrashed for nearly 10 years.

    Well its up to you! lol
    A new ski is a good idea cos you dont have the fatigue that older skis get from the years of hammering.
    From an engine perspective, by the time you have finished doing it up it is going to be a brand new engine anyway so starting with an older one is a better idea I reckon.

    That ski on trade me has a few bits that would save you a bit of money anyway. Theres about a grands worth of bits there that you can save. It all helps.

    If you go all out on this poleski your looking at betwen 4 to 6 grand to build a really good freestyle boat and thats not including the price of the boat!
    Starting with a second hand one will put you 3 grand ahead to start.

    Yeah I'm real keen to buy that one on Trademe. My Fx1 is great with mint motor but factory standard. Keen to get out in the surf with you guys and try a superjet out!! Too new to the sport to know how to get the right parts and do the mechanics, so this is perfect. Anyone know its history

    I spoke to Roger today about it, it has a Jetwerks sticker on the back of it which means he's worked on it at some stage.

    He doesnt remember it and was going to have a look tonight. He said if he did work on it, it would have been a while ago and he couldnt really vouch for it.

    Its cheap enough to take the risk with to be honest. Its got a few goodies!
