I am selling my authentic Greddy Type RS. Literally has 50 or less miles. Had a 1g bov before this, currently parting out my setup to go LSX. No need for this.

$110 shipped anywhere in the con. us. Will include a 2.5" pipe and gasket, both of those are brand new.

Did you paint the BOV outlet or changed it? Greddy RS only comes in blue. Fake ones comes in all shades of the rainbow. Hate to crash your post but I can't condone fake stuff, which is what put Greddy into bankruptcy. Link below shows the difference.

Oh wow really?

Look at the first picture labeled "1" in your link. Now look at picture 2 I posted. Clearly you can see the hump where the vac hose goes.

Now look at picture 4 on the link. You see how the real one has a V on the bolt hole. Ya you can clearly see mine does also.

See where is says soft/hard. How much bolder the real one is. Ya check mine.... Also see how greddy is much bolder on mine like the link

See the gasket? The blue one, exactly like the link you posted.


Anyways. I am uploading more pictures since you decided to shit in the thread.

For those who are interested.

Here is the link again to confirm that it is a real Greddy RS.

This is probably the easiest picture to tell that it is authentic. Compare this photo to photo 2 that this guy posted. See how the REAL RS has a bronze plunger and a gold seal ring. What do you know so does mine! Where as the fake does not. You can also see where the mounting surface is finished just before the outlet of the BOV a real one has more of a V shape, whereas the fake does not.

Compare this picture to picture 4 in the link. See the "v" on the bolt hole for the real greddy rs. Guess what? Mine has it too.

Compare these pictures to 3A and 3B. See mine has the casting dimple like the real RS and also a straight casting line.

Compare this picture to picture 1 in the link. See where the vac fitting screws in? Fake one does not have a hump. Real Greddy RS does. Guess what? Mine does too!

Still laughing at "condone" like seriously wtf. I am selling about 3 grand worth of parts right now, and I have sold probably more than that over the years I have been here and this guy wants to come in here and drop a duece like I am trying to scam someone out of $100.

:snoop:

Sold over $3k? Good for you. I was just asking if it was painted or swapped. Original post had no pictures proving the authenticity of the item and I merely posted for additional info. I even stated "I hate to..." as a preemptive apology of sorts, instead of "dood, yo shit's fake, yo".

Now that additional images' are up, people can buy confidently, instead of second guessing. With that note, GLWS, I'm happy it's the real McCoy.

Right. Let's see who's "Burrrrrn" next time you buy a fake item without someone else to guide the purchase.

Hi,

Thank you for your inquiry. The RS has been discontinued and out of production for almost 3 years. It would be very rare to see a new one on the market. Furthermore they were never produced in red.

Well in any news. I purchased it from a performance shop. Maybe they swapped the blue snout out for a red? Weird my cousin has the same one though. They are both real.

Sorry my shit is not fake by any means. It just so happens to have every "authentic" marking yet it is fake? Even the diaphragm etc etc all matchs up.... My pictures are surely not telling a lie.

Thanks for trying to ruin my sale though, weird you went out of your way to do so. Especially seeing as this has nothing to do with you. It is already sold.
