Is my turbo fizucked.
I just finished putting my sr20 t25 back together after clocking it and I noticed some shaft play...I'm not sure if it's within spec though. I'm going to run the turbo regardless but would like to see if this is okay. If I put a hand on each inlet nut and exhaust nut and wiggle back in forth I hear a slight "click" sound coming from the middle of the turbine. The blades don't come in contact with the wall though. I also tried hooking it up to the vacuum and didn't hear any weird sounds when it spun. If I remember correctly, when I pulled the turbo off my old srt it made the same little "click" when wiggled.

A little shaft play is fine as long as the wheels do not contact the housing. I just rebuilt mine and there is still a tiny amount of shaft play but I dont see how there couldn't always be just a little. The thrust washer is what allows it to happen and even with a brand new one its still allowing a bit of play.
