It's a T25... why not buy a stock T25 that someone took off of their SR and not worry about if it's crappy or worth buying instead?

I know but this is brand new, and its the same price as most used ones. Thats why I want to know if its worth it first. Cuz if its not, I rather get a used one.

wat the hell thats not the price of a used one , if it is mabye i need to start sellin my turbos on here ,
most used t25 in the best condition have sold for like a 100-150 i wouldnt pay that for a stock turbo , get a used one , save up and by a t-28 or sumthin
if u want it with t28 internals , get a blown t25 and put one together for that price ,

yeah I guess your right, but I have seen some outrageous prices for stock t25s on here.. So do you think that turbo is a piece of crap? lol

That was the best answer right there or a T28 I wouldn't trust that brand ether. So if I were you I would probably pick up a T28

i bought that same turbo from them a while ago. its basically a t25 in a t28 housing. you're gonna need the t28 oil drain tube/hose and inlet elbow adapter if you want to use it on an s13 sr20.

I'd rather get a new on instead of someone's beat down used one for a little more
That thing is a piece of Chinese junk. It's NOT the same thing as a Garrett turbo, and probably won't last 1/100th as long as a used Garrett T25.

brand new poop or used goodness, its your choice.
we have all heard the saying a fool and his money are soon parted.
not calling you a fool, just saying be careful of what you buy, so you don't become the fool.

Used quality >>>>>>>> New poorly made Taiwanese crap.
Every. Fucking. Time.
If I had a TIG welder, I could slap together some "RUCAS" in 30 minutes. They'd be "new." It doesn't mean they're better than 6 month old SPL arms.

Cheap 240sx owners end up paying twice as much for something. Dont be cheap. Get a T25 turbo off an sr. Rebuild kits arent even that much even if you had to rebuild it.
