Need a source for T3 bearings/seals, and..
And do T3's all use the same internals, bearings and such?
Anyone know a good source?

Maybe check out www.turbocity.com ? i think they may only sell cartridges, check around for local places, if you want since im somewhat close i can call CMR turbos here and check if they sell them, im pretty sure they are all same unless its modded for a bigger shaft.

I tried Turbo City, and they had it, but thier prices were ridiculous. Thier kits come with about $10 worth of bearings and o rings..but they charge $90. I guess it's the intructions they think are worth $80 lol. There has gotta be another source somewhere.
I finished pulling apart both my turbos. Both are the same AR T3 turbos, but one is a Garret, the other is an AIRreasearch. The main bearings all mic out within a few thousandths of each other, but the AIR reasearch ones are noticably heavier for whatever reason. The front seal/bearing (whatever it is..the thing right behind the compressor wheel) has the same ID/OD, but is obviously very different styles. The brass C shaped gizmo(I have no idea what it's called) is identical on both.
