I would have thought the internals of the central cartridge change according to bearing design but maintain the external dimensions so exhaust housing is independent.
The websites linked suggest the VF30 (thrust bearing centre) utilises the P18 exhaust housing from the VF24 (ball bearing centre) Also suggests a VF30 is uses the same compressor and exhaust housings as the VF34 but different cartridge (ie thrust vs balls) |

So could anyone explain why the cartridges are so different? With all the 20 series there is absolutely nothing to it when it comes to interchangeability... all that is required to mate cartridge to the housing is the usual lockable band etc found on every single turbo in the VF series, and the turbine wheel dimensions are exactly the same- so what exactly is the catch?!! Pics/ info would be great, I'm open to explanations- perhaps we could be the first forum to have a post that settles this debate once and for all?

Its simple, the ball bearing cartridge has a different mating surface/dimension onto the exhaust housing than a non-ball bearing cartridge.(slight larger diameter and offset)
When the turbo descriptions/comparisons are given they talk purely about the size/capacity of the housing.....leaving out the detail that there are slight differences in how they physically mate to each other with particular reference to ball/non-ball . However they are still the same capacity i.e P15 P18 etc etc thats not a part number, its a capacity description. I have/have had several of the mentioned turbo`s, I have tried to bolt/slide them into each other....they only fit where compatible. By all means ask what fits where if your not sure, and you will be provided an answer, Its very simple and not worth the craping on about so please accept the informed answer you receive |

I'm sure it's simple... it's just that I've never had both cartridges of this particular series to play with (the series 2 bb and non bb mate up just fine for example), and as previously stated there is absolutely NO definitive answer on any other forums!!
Cheers for the info guys.

i definately have somewhere a p15 housing which fitted a vf34, i thought it was from a vf35, but we later confirmed it wasnt from a vf35, so it had to be something earlier...
side by side a p18 housing, the p15 was definately smaller, so i wasnt dreaming
