will a 20G intake compressor fit a Garret T3 exhaust housing?

1 of my friends had a Supra MKIII, and he had a 20G on it, well he crahsed it and wants to sell the 20G, he did'nt have time to unbolt the exhaust side of the turbo and everything, so he pulled the Intake compressor outta the housing, i wanna buy it but on the Z31T's 84-86 they came with a garret T3 87-89 came with a T25. But on mine si have a T3...and i need to know if a 20G intake compressior will bolt onto the T3 exhaust housing.


help me plz, cause i can get this turbo very cheap!!!!


thanx

ps: 20G=mitsu turbo

T3=Garrett turbo

don't they have t3/t4 hybrids? Or is a T3 (both compressor and exhaust together) too small for a rotary

They make t3/t4's but I don't think expecially for rotarys, I've seen them for eclipses and stuff though, even those I think would be a little small for a rotary. HE DOESN'T HAVE A ROTARY, HE HAS A OLDER 300Z, so basically his question is only to do with the turbo asking if the 20g intake housing will bolt onto a t3 exhaust housing..

P.S. Aren't 16g, 18g, 20g turbo's based on the stock 14b mitsubishi turbo found on eclipses?? Wonder if you could use a exhaust housing off of a 14b??

Just because it's cheap means you have to buy it?

Yeah thats right.. it is a upgrade for a 14B or whatever, but the guy im getting it from had it on his MKIII supra.. and was running 30+psi outta it. bu my question has yet to me answered.

Reted: i wanna buy this turbo if it fits, cause im getting it for about $50.00 the guy dont know **** about his car, but the turbo was just rebuilt.. so when i say dirt cheap thats what im saying


CAN SOMONE ANSWER MY QUESTION PLZ?

For $50 buy it.. You could always sell it on thepartstrader.com for more, couldn't you?

I really don't know how much these turbos go for.. I would check thepartstrader and see what the value is..

I agree with zyounker, buy it and if you have to sell it on the partstrader/ebay if it doesn't fit then you should make enough off of selling this one to buy some kind of used turbo that will fit..
