All the RB20 turbo's I ever took apart or saw after they exploded were ball bearing. In fact, I may build my own ball bearing turbo out of spare parts I have lying around.
I had my Skyline pushing about 280WHP or so, but that was really pushiong the turbo hard, after a few drags the EX housing was glowing red and wouldn't spool well at all do to heat soak.
But for 7-8 lbs of boost, I'd think it would be a good choice simply for right now boost. Anything over that and the boost will drop off at 5000rpm or so I'm betting.
Depends on which one is cheaper. I'd say RB20 cause I have spare and I have friends over on Okinawa who can ship me one for cheap.
