Snapped turbine shaft, where to get a new one?
 

So I started taking apart a couple of turbos to build my TO4/T3 hybrid and got ---- on. The nut was seized on the threads even after soaking the ---- w/ PB Blaster and snapped. Just wondering if anyone might have a .48 turbine shaft/wheel theyre willing to sell or if not... where can I get one cheap? Already tried Ebay and nadda. :-[

Send it off to Blaast, hes got shafts and wheels for HMT on the hookup, youll need to balance it anyways, and hes fast as ----

Blaast is good.. He's in Canada though - those bastards are always starting trouble.
He's fast, prices are good.. Shipping may bite though.
Best if you ship him your compressor turbine though so he can balance the whole thing.

If you don't want to use Blaast, any turbo rebuild shop in the states can hook you up. Verify that they're selling you a Garrett shaft and you'll want to measure the diameter of your existing shaft just to be sure it's not a rebuilt one and undersize.

Shipping was $32 from MA to Blaast, and $30 return. Short money for a rebuilt turbo. The cheapest place locally wanted $320 + parts.

Just find a good center section.
