    I don't think they bolt up. Different bolt pattern on the exhaust housing IIRC too.

    Not to mention the whole rubbish ceramic exhaust wheels too.

    Better off buying new CHRA's from Coz for $400 or so ea.

    if they get blocked they can cause all sorts of problems also there is a page in the tech section about getting a pipe welded on to your exhaust to stop white smoke .
    also you could have a problem with your piston rings. . . .

    Do not use turbos off anything less han an N1 GTR, Both R32 and R33 use ceramic turbine wheels and will fail at any decent ammount of boost, also they are very expensive to rebuild.

    Turbos of an S14 or S15 are you best option if looking for something used.

    With the amount of work required to do this job, it'd be a bit crazy to put back in 2nd hand turbos. I'd be saving up for new ones or at least re-co the stock ones to save more work later.

    Regardless of what you do, it's going to be an expensive exercise.
