Terminator Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 Does anyone know if the axial and radial play limits are the same for the UK and JDM turbos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Phil I assume you are taking the P1ss, but in case you are serious, the general specs for the turbo's can be found a http://www.mkiv.co.nz on the specs page. What you are after would probably need to come from a turbo builder though. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 I only have access to a UK spec manual. Obviously the general specs of the UK and JDM are very different. What I don’t know is if the axial play of and the radial play limits of the UK specs turbine shafts are the same. As these figures relate to play in turbo bearings I was wondering if they might be the same. I can’t find these figures for the JDM stock turbos. I don’t think they are the sort of figures that would be normally posted on most sites. I don’t think I have ever seen them quoted any where other than the manual resources on MKIV.com for UK or US cars. UK specs for turbine shaft play are as follows Maximum Axial play 0.110mm Maximum Radial play 0.162mm Any has anyone got the JDM specs.

matt Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 I think its safe to say the UK specs will be near enough............. Its all down to the bearings. I can't imagine the UK bearings are any better/worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted May 22, 2003 Author Share Posted May 22, 2003 Cheers Matt I was hoping someone would say that. It is what I thought, but just wanted to check. I'll post results when I have check them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
