The stock Hitachi HT18 uses T4 bearings & seals..

You should E-mail them and ask if they have your specific kit.

I don't think so. (sorry for the slow edit)

E-mail them.
They probably have what you need.

T3 is the same thing as the T04 kit.
It should work.

Yeah, I've been wanting to do it, but there's not too many stock turbos still running around down here.
It's pretty straight-forward.
If I get a chance to do a write-up, I will.
Good luck!
