I installed my newly built BNR Stage 2 turbo but it acted weird from the first time it started up. I checked for shaft play and this is what I found.

Looks like normal shaftplay.

As it turns out this is normal shaft play and the issues I've been having were not related to the shaft play

  • so..is this mean the turbo is broken?is it a way to fix th shaft play?

  • NO, it shows the normal shaft play in a good turbo. Minimal up and down with no in and out play.

  • That is normal shaft play.

  • Thanks, I know. The up and down play is normal and there was no in and out play.  It turned out to be an internal issue that has been fixed. I'll be posting new videos in the coming weeks.

  • you're right.Iinitially thought the shaft play seen here was the cause of the loud noise when the car was turned on the first time. Sent it back to the builder and it turned out to have a little defect inside that made the noise. I'll be posting more vid soon.

  • where can i get this kit?? its a rebuild turbo kit or the actually turbo can you please help me ... IM a new rx7 guy and i need some help thank you

  • @ucfaccountant the play is normal, especially when you are forcing the shaft as much as he is... a small amount of up and down play is fine, in and out is a different story. so long as the blades do not touch the compressor housing, look for signs that the blades aren't hitting the compressor housing and chafing.

  • That looks like normal shaft play to me. 

  • that is not normal shaft play that is much more then tolerance should allow.

  • What does it mean when it has in and out play? what do I need to replace?

  • LOL cool turbo man

  • Normal..........newbs

  • ic.so can shaft play can be fix?

    i read about shaft play in garret website and it said shaft play can effect turbo.
