    Turbo!

    Been told my turbo has pretty much given up the ghost. I don't have the money right this second but just gauging interest in what's available, standard tubby or a stage 1 please.

    If you are after something quite standardish I would seriously consider just getting your unit refurbed.

    That way you at least have some guarantee if will last more than 6 months. The majority of unknown second hand turbos which come up, give up the ghost a few months later.

    You keep saying how you can use Amy's car if yours is off the road, what's the point of doing it twice. Just buy a gt25r, the rest can be cheap if you search
