Hey guys, I might be buyin an FD with a lil over 119k miles on it, but the seals on the rotaries were changed at 83k. Im just wondering how long the stock turbos will last and hold up before I would need to have it rebuilt or just buy an aftermarket turbo kit. I rode in the car and it hits hard.

 

my car has 150k miles and i think its on the second set. they eventually crack from the heat.

 

I bought my FD with 103K on it. Previous owner however, just had the turbos rebuilt about 8000 miles ago... I would find out if they have ever been redone. From what I have read, I would be willing to say you have a rebuild/replacement in the future if they haven't been done.

Look at the bright side though... It can be a great reason to do everything you would want to the car at once!

 

thanks for the input guys. haha i guess, i think im going to do a single turbo conversion once the time comes.
