Extra RB20 or RB25 turbo?

[Joe]

Ok, im gonna post here cause my friend dosent visit this forum. a good friend of mine was in a serious accident where his S13 W/ a CA18 was totaled. from donations we have gotten him a new car and it almost back into the state it was in. the only thing that is left is the turbo. it was heaily damaged beyond repair from the accident.

so im asking here, in the RB forum, to help my friend out. does ANYONE have an extra turbo lying around they can donate/sell for CHEAP? please? he is going through a very bad depression right now (he was hit by a drunk driver with no insurance, he only has liability and no lawyer will touch his case without a minimum 1500$ payment. he broke his femur so was on crutches for about 6 weeks but can now walk nearly normal again) we, the local arizona 240 board have taken nearly 1000$ in donations to help him but the last thing left is a turbo.

ANYTHING you can guys do to help is greatly appreciated.

I'll look around in the shop and ask my friends still on Oki. Give me a day or two I'll reply back here.

that would be great man, we still need to get together and bull**** with a few beers. let me kno the next time you are in phoenix/ill let you know the next time im down in tucson with the 240.

Sweet, actually, madsi is still over in OKI, he can probably snake a turbo for damn cheap if he doesn't have a spare lying around. I'll shoot him an email.

i love it when a forum comes together to help another member. i wish i had some extra money lying around to help out, but i have a unfortunate incident also.

best wishes for your friend and i pray for a full recovery

[Joe]

thanks, i am amazed how much we raised for him. i just wish i could have helped more.

I linked Madsi, we'll see if he pops by. I don't have one in the shop, I gave my last one to a Krayton.

[Joe]

wich i think he just destroied hahaha. he kills turbos faster than i can.

Makes me wonder if he's got oiling them correctly...my guess is no.

[Joe]

well the first one i can understand, boosting 17psi = dead stock 25 turbo

this one i have no idea.

I don't have a stock one but I saw one yesterday. I didn't look at it to see if it was good though. I have a full HKS turbine kit for the CA; manifold, wastegate and T04E turbo. E-mail me [email protected]

[Joe]

we definately dont have that kind of money to throw around for an upgrade like that. wish we did tho.

thank anyway

I saw a stock RB25 turbo on ebay earlier today for around $250, if I remember correctly.

wich i think he just destroied hahaha. he kills turbos faster than i can.

lol, ah come on guys. its not that bad

but i found out the turbo was just falling off the manifold. those damn little metal tabs dont do crap. anyways its all fixed now.

still trying to source my t3/t4 setup, if i can work it out soon and WDracing doesnt mine, this one can go to alf

.....17psi owned me!!!! (more like owned nissans ceramic exhaust wheel)

[themadscientist]

wait I am confused, he has a CA right so you need a CA turbo? I can check the junkyard one I spotted yesterday.

[Joe]

I wanna thank you guys for your support, we got him a turbo tonight gonna be installing it tommrow and hopefully get it out to the drift day sunday at PIR.

thanks again guys, i appreciate it!!!

[WDRacing]

[Joe]
