VF48 TURBO REBUILD KIT UPGRADE FOR IHI VF39 VF43 VF52 VF37 VF49 SUBARU WRX STI

Please check shipping cost and delivery times. If you require a faster delivery time, please contact us to make arrangements. Turbo\_Crafts is pleased to offer this high-quality turbo rebuild kit for the IHI VF-series journal bearing turbochargers listed below. OEM thrust bearing is made of porous sintered brass alloy. Sintered brass alloy works like a sponge and absorbs oil for the times of dry start or loss of lubrication. Sintered brass alloy is soft and can fail under high boost use. Thrust bearing failure can be diagnosed by in-and-out turbo shaft play. Thrust bearing failure damaged the compressor wheel, seal plate, and even wears into the compressor housing. Our CNC-machined billet brass thrust bearing is much harder and provides protection under high boost use. This billet thrust bearing comes standard on all IHI turbocharger rebuilds we perform. It has been tested up to 28psi boost on test vehicles without any signs of leaking or failure. First picture shows a closeup of our billet brass thrust bearing. Second picture shows a comparison of the original IHI thrust bearing and our billet brass version. \-\-\--------------------------------- **COMPATIBILITY**(compatible IHI journal bearing turbochargers): -VF30, JDM STI EJ20, single scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA373 -VF35, same turbo as the VF30 with a smaller single scroll P15 housing; PN: 14411AA443 -VF37, JDM V8 & V9 STI Spec-C, EJ207 engine, twin scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA542 -VF39, USDM 2004-2006 STI, EJ257 engine, single scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA572 -VF41, JDM Forester STI, single scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA610 -VF43, USDM 2007 STI, EJ257 engine, single scroll P18 housing; 14411AA620 -VF48, USDM 2008-2018 STI (Type RA), EJ257B engine, single scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA700 -VF49, JDM 2008-2014 STI, EJ207 engine, twin scroll; PN: 14411AA690 -VF52, USDM 2009-2014 WRX, EJ255 engine, single scroll P18 housing; PN: 14411AA800 \-\-\--------------------------------- **WHAT'S INCLUDED** -ONE(1) billet thrust bearing, CNC-machined from brass for higher load-carrying capacity and heat descipation -ONE(1) rear thrust plate -ONE(1) thrust flinger -ONE(1) thrust washer -ONE(1) compressor oil seal, heat treated tool steel -ONE(1) turbine oil seal, heat treated tool steel -ONE(1) turbine shaft nut, low profile design, 8mm 12-point -TWO(2) journal bearings, precision CNC-machined brass material -THREE(3) Allen/hex bolts for the thrust bearing -FOUR(4) Allen/hex bolts for seal plate(backing plate) \-\-\--------------------------------- We offer all service parts, such as billet compressor wheels, replacement turbine shafts, bearing housings, seal plates and bearings, for the IHI VF-series turbochargers.
