what the hell are u on about?

as merlin and a few others have already said.. stock R32, R33 and R34 turbos are ALL ceramic NOT ball bearing.

wtfs a ceramic ball bearing turbo?

why do you think the most common upgrade is TO a BB turbo like the VG30?

OK OK OK FOR ALL THE NEWBIES OUT THERE THIS IS IN NO WAY SAYING YOUR ALL DUMB ASS's

ok.. r32 r33 r34 standard turbos ARE ALL BUSH BEARING with a CERAMIC EXHAUST WHEEL

and also from memory.. a vg30 turbo is bush bearing aswell :P

any other info feel free to ask

Some of you guys are out of your freaking minds.

I have bought this turbo so it is no longer for sale.

It is on my car right now and works fine. A small amount of shaft end play is quite normal for these BALL BEARING turbos, and this one is fairly typical.

r32 turbos are bush bearing and have a metal rear and ceramic front, same as series 1 r33 turbo's, series 2 and on are full ceramic as for which ones are ballbearing? not sure, but i know r32 turbo's aint ballbearing standard, r32 turbos handle the most psi, followed by the r33 s1 turbo, fact being they have metal rear wheels and i can confirm this ive pulled shit of my car many times, ive even ran my stock turbo at 20 psi by accident for a few days and didnt realise and ran fine! lucky for my cooling, just waiting for my stock r32 turbo to die but it just dosnt seem to want to go! lol it has almost no shaft play!

but that said..

the turbo in that pic has been high flowed, it has a twin metal front wheel, its not standard looks the same as what is sitting in my wardrobe which has a $1100 highflow done to it. meaning ballbearing and full steel wheels! so u should think about increasing tthe price son :rolleyes:

      If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
