PTE 5031 rebuild kit???

[KelTsi90]

Hi,

I'm going to buy a PTE 5031(mitsubishi housing). It needs a rebuild kit. Is this kit the same that the TD05(16g) rebuild kit?? I've search and didn't find. WHo sells it??

Thanks,
Kelvin

If it is the ball bearing version your looking at a whole new centersection

These guys are great. I get my rebuild kits from them. And no its not the same as a td05 kit.

It should either be a "Garrett T3/T4 Hybrid", or a "Big Shaft & T-Series"
I would contact them.

It will be a standard T3/T4 style rebuild kit, but you'll need a 360* BOLT-DOWN thrust plate. Not many companies use this design, and Precision uses it as a way to charge $150+ for a rebuild kit that you can buy elsewhere for $50.

I have sucessfully modified a regular Garrett 360* thrust plate to fit Precision and / or Turbonetics turbos in the past....it takes some patience, a variety of drill bit sizes, and a drill press.

Does it only have up/down play, or does it have both in/out and up/down? If there is no in/out play, then you can actually just use a standard T3 rebuild kit to refresh the seals and journal bearings and save yourself some hassle by not changing the thrust plate.

Keep an eye on the Tech Forums in the next few days- I have a complete PTE 6031E rebuild outline that I'm planning on uploading for your reading pleasure.

Anyone know how much were talking if 2 blades on the compressor side are chewed up?..does that mean new CHRA?

 

[JusMX141]

50-trim Garrett compressor wheels are $100-$130....it just depends on how much you want to put into this turbo.

A wheel and a rebuild are what i want to put into it...it seems very reasonable to me.
I just want to drive my car now while saving for the turbo i really want.

can you help me out with a link for a new wheel or anything?

 

[JusMX141]

Any turbo vendor can help you....perhaps Turbochargers.com and similar.

There probably won't be any specific parts listed on their site because there are so many different turbos, you'll just have to shoot them an email.
