What turbo is this?
Yes, I know what you must be thinking, I hate these threads myself but now I find myself making one to help out a friend 
He bought this a while back and is just now looking to put it into use - he says it's supposed to be a GT35R, I'm no expert on identifying turbos like this so I didn't offer my opinion - precision exh housing though
. Attempts to contact the seller for confirmation haven't worked out.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Here are the pics he sent me:

Tell your friend the same we tell everyone else.
1) list those numbers on that little shiny plate right there on the cartridge or take a close-up pic of it. That looks promising...
OR
2) get those housings off, measure inducer/ exducer of both compressor and exhaust wheels.
AND
3) calculate the "trim" from that.
From what I can see, cartridge is short enough to be a GT35R, Contour of GT35R wheel looks consistent. (I have one right here in front of me), as does the exhaust wheel. I see a restrictor in the feed area, but not sure about any water lines.
Gotta see more to verify.

Were there SC61 variants with watercooled center sections? Looks like there are 4 ports but its hard to tell for sure from the pictures posted.
Wheel measurements are mostly what I'd be interested in checking out too -- like TheShodan said.
