Yep, it has no play in the shafts and its got a dirty big K&N filter on 
it. The turbo was in perfrect condition when I bought it. It had been 
pulled straight from the import motor when the owner dropped the 
RB25det into his silvia and replaced with a brand new turbo. There is 
no way I want to shell out for a new turbo considering I paid good 
money for this one and now it won't go.  The car is still here in Isa 
but I don't want to ship it down as it would cost me 600 bucks to get 
it to brisy, 500 - 1000 to get the turbo fixed and tricked up a little, 
400 bucks for insurance, 500 - 600 to get it tuned. 100 bucks for mod 
plate etc etc.  I've already spent about 7 grand on this little project 
(i'e. engine swap doing everything myself and can't justifying spending 
anymore)  I know I sound like a tight arse but considering we have the 
gear here to tune it at no cost and a few other things that will cost 
me to do it in Brisy.  I'm honestly considering selling the car as is 
(just needs a turbo and a tune) and sinking my savings into a 1600 with 
an FJ etc that is already to go.  It just pisses me off no end that the 
whole thing was running sweetly ready to have the tuning finished off 
and then drive back to brisy.  I have to be out of here by tuesday 
morning so there is stuff all way that I could have it fixed and ready 
to go by then since there are no turbocharging places here in the Isa.

Cheers
