whaaaaaaaa? I got my RHB5 rebuild kit for like $90 from a local turbo place. They had to order it for me but it had everything I needed to rebuild my VF-11 and even hybrid with the t-bird turbo compressor wheel and housing. The only thing I didn't have was the snap-ring style tool that helps get the first bearing out of the housing.

Check locak turbo-based dealers or tuning shops first. Ask for a rebuild kit for an IHI RHB5 VF-11 turbo, they should be able to get you everything you need.

Oh, and the torque spec for the last nut that goes on the turbo shaft is 65 inch/lbs.

Dude. For $400 you can almost get a TD05-16g WRX turbo from the UK. Don't DON'T spend $400 on our little crappy turbos! lol
