Default .36 ar exhaust turbine housing

hi there, does anyone know where i can get one of these, preferably good used condition?

brand new they are a lot, so someone who stocks good second hand ones would be good. the one i have is cracked unfortunately

i am looking at keeping the stock .36 size. if anyone can help with this it would be very much appreciated

cheers, dan

cheers for the quick reply. unfortunately i bought the turbo untested so looks like i might have to take a gamble with it. are there any particular areas where if there is a crack present that i should not use the housing? cheers, dan

Yeah they often crack but rarely leak from what I've seen, as above IMO if it's holding boost fine I wouldn't worry.

Sorry you posted just as I did! lol
Can you see black soot around the crack (on the outside)? If not then again it's probably ok.

usually round the pennyvalve(wastegate) if tis is crcked it will leak by sometimes
there is a swirl in the casting which always crack,as mentioned i have about 4 here and all the same,
the only way would be buy a new housing but by the time you have done that ive seen near new stg 3 t3s at £300

try it before spending any cash

cheers, if you could take a look and let me know. funds are tight at the moment. i might also be after a sound (ish) condition s1 t3 turbo in standard spec. anyone know where i might find one? as long as there isnt massive play in the shaft, the turbine wheels are undamaged and have not hit the turbine housings etc...

This is obviously an old post but does anyone have a second hand .36 housing?
