Default APS Turbo Kit Help

I'm going to be buying a used APS Single Turbo Kit for my 350z De car. It has most of what I need minus the miscellaneous bolts, clamps and washers. Does anyone know where I can find this stuff? The kit has a blown turbo and will need a CHRA cartridge as well, not looking to spend 1000+ for it. It's a GT3582r, I want to get a replacement for it that will fit but still be 400-500whp capable. Some assistance in finding a replacement would be nice as well. I'm giving 3000$ for it, is this a good price for it? If not what's a reasonable offer for it?

I may need some of the vacuum hoses as well, and maybe a bracket or two if someone can get me in touch with someone who can hook me up with that as well.

Well I got my own fuel pump, and I'm doing an AAM basic return fuel system. I was thinking about that price too. It's a friend who owns it and I'm trying to get into it because I know it's good quality with the right supporting mods.

replace the scavenge pump if you do end up buying the kit.

IMHO do not replace the rotating assembly, replace the whole turbo. Call ATP turbo for help.

is the setup still internally gated?

I mean I assume so, it's a garrett gt3582r, it apparently locked up due to oil saturation.

I was simply asking if the kit you were getting had this. Call atp turbo on Monday. Have specs, housing numbers, etc off the turbo and they will get you squared away

There was no question formulated in that post. So putting it simply, I did not know you were asking a question. But I will contact ATP on Monday in regard to this and getting a replacement turbo. Thank you for your insight and recommendations.

$3k seems high for a kit with a blown turbo.

What do you consider a fair price? I'm wanting to get into a kit with everything necessary for no more than 3k.
