alot of times I see Vj-20 rebuild kits on ebay... I havent seen vj-23 ones though....

vj-23 is not rebuildable afaik because it is a ball bearing turbo.

Actually yes they are, as long as it's just seals that are gone.

If the seals are gone there is a good chance the Bearing are about shot too.

What I would do is either get it rebuilt for $500 or go find a VF34 or 30 on the NASIOC.com forums from a WRX or STI and then make an adapter plate. The turbo's are like $250 and most have less than 5,XXX miles due to them upgrading.

But thats what I would do.

It's not of great importance to me. This is just a spare turbo i have. Thought it would be nice to have it opperational for under $200
