Default Need a replacement turbo

I'm not sure exactly which turbo this is because it was on the car when I bought it, but the cast is craking in three places so it's time for a new one. I would like to keep the same style turbo with the external wastegate port on the turbo itself, this way I don't have to change any of my setup.

Obvisouly it's a Garrett .42 but I don't know what size the exhaust side is. Does anyone know where I can order a new one of these online? I would appreciate any help.

Thanks



Notice the cracks around the wastegate port...

Forget getting a new one, just weld up the cracked area and grind it back down flush, a buddy of mine did the same thing and you could not even tell it was ever cracked after. Plus its free!

cant really tell from the picture what size the turbo inlet flange is, but im pretty sure its an t2 / t25 / t28. so just search on ebay for one of these, you could get a used one for about 500. if you want to spend a little more, you can get the silvia s15 bb turbo, it goes for around 1000 for a brand new one.
