I'm looking for the stock turbo for either a 20 or 25. I would prefer the 25's turbo... but the motor is about to go in and I'd like to put it on with the motor out. If you have a 20, I am only interested in the 16V-10 turbo since the 12 is not BB. If someone has a 25... name your price.

None of the venders I've contacted sell the turbos seporate, and I could use the help in locating one. Good condition is a must... thanks for the help everyone! I gave my old one to Hybrid to help him get back on the road... so now I need the favor (I expect to pay for it of course).

I came across this today...http://home.iprimus.com.au/jverban/Click the 'turbos' link on the left.

He's got RB20 turbos for $250 and RB26 (R32) turbos for $300.

This guy's in Australia so if youre in a rush this prolly doesnt do you any good. And shipping is another factor.

Just trying to help...

Thank you very much for the help. Shipping price and time would be the big factor on the au stuff, but conversion puts that VG at about $293USD...

change out the turbine housing, you'll be fine (if the seals are still good) :)

The turbo is fine except for that crack. I think I did that when I pulled the motor out of the clip.

Also stock amount of shaftplay, spins freely, no oil leaks(but there is a little in there because the clip was stacked vertically when shipped from japan, and I will include the downpipe.

Let me know when you get it back from JonPowell. I will buy it from you.

Mods... it may be worth while for the RB forum to have it's own classifieds for RB related items only (not suspension blinky lights etc), since their parts are far more rare than the other Nissan motors. This was a very helpful post since I had already posted something like this in the for sale forum, with no response.
