Default Quick S13 SX Question

Right taking the turbo off my mates S13 today, he insists it is whining because it is loose . Anyway, i cant remember if it is if the impellers move from side to side or up or down that indicate that it is fucked (Which im 99.999% certain it is).

Also any general tips for removing them, have had a quick look and doesnt look like there is alot of room down there.

Dont much fancy going over to the SXOC either after Fudgeass's warm welcoming

Side to side i.e. in and out means it shafted

side to side aslong as not extreme ie blades touching housing is ok, any thrust wear (in and out) isnt good, the longer its left the worse it will get

200sx`s have a healthy appetite for turbos, we`ve changed quite a few of them. They`re right bastards to get to as well
