I have two turbos, one I was told was a rebuilt and highflowed RB25 turbo, but when I went to fit it the oil drain bolt-holes didn't line up. I have since found out that this could be the pattern of an RB20. Shaft play is almost nothing, but I think I can feel *something*... but apparently that's fairly normal for a ball-bearing setup. It has a braided line on it. It also had a HKS actuator, which I removed to use with my highflow.

The other turbo I bought as a dead turbo for an R33 RB25 with the intention of highflowing it after the first highflow turbo I bought turned out not to fit my car. No cracks and no bent fins, shaft play is minimal, but there is a coating of oil on the blades, so possibly there is a fault there.

I am selling both as dead turbos to have rebuilt (which should be cheaper than having your car off the road while you do some kind of exchange thing). Whether or not they work, I don't know and I don't want to promise but both should be great for highflowing, especially the one that might not need much doing to it!

There is one wastegate actuator, which I *think* came off the R33 turbo. All three items for sale as one lot, pick up only because they're heavy and oily.

Pickup from Forestville, NSW, 2087.

The 45V1 is the same as our VG30 BB turbo, except judging by the exhaust wheel, it has been hi flowed as you say, we had to rotate the housing to make it bolt up to the RB25DET,

So much more linear than the stock OP6 .

Thanks for the info!

It looks like the GCG highflow I put on my car in the end, except the oil drain bolt spacing didn't line up with my stock piping.
