Just a question about a garrett t25

[CMF_Urban]

There is a rebuilt garrett t25 for sale for $250 on a forum.

I'm considering buying it for the future (I hope to eventually turn my micra into a sneezer >=})

So whenever there are parts that seem to be in good nick, and reasonably priced, that i would need in a turbo set up i'm going to buy, just to slowly build up my collection.

So i'm just wondering what questions i should ask the seller to find out whether the turbo would be suitable for a micra turbo set up.

Thanks Cameron.

A picture of the turbo..

He says it's been rebuilt 3 months ago.

 

[CMF_NotAnotherSSS]

has it been used since it was rebuilt? why did he replace it? what did he replace it with?

those would be my first questions.

Also ask him what was done in the rebuild.
Did he do it or someone do it for him??
If someone did the rebuild how about copy of invoice??

[CMF_evade]

first questions i'd be asking are

any shaft play?
is it blowing smoke?
how much boost ran through it?
how many km's done..

come with lines?

the important ****..

Highest boost that it was ever run on was 12psi.

Will ask the other questions.

Cheers!
