for the price of the rebuild kit alone, you could get a good used one off ebay. And unless you have the means and procedure to properly realign the VGT slide after taking it out I wouldn't even try it if I were you. (there are special gauge pins to get the slide realigned inside the turbine housing appropriately, but those only work right if you index the driver gear properly after reinstalling it)

i googled "HE351ve rebuild" and found this little bit of info. dont know if it is accurate or not.
best part about this turbo is.. its VGT yes.. but it uses the same rebuild kit as a hx35/hx40 and uses the same turbine wheel as a hx35 on the cold side

So some of the parts from the HX35/40 do seem interchangeable with the HE351ve, although if you need spare parts you can find a HE351ve on ebay for cheap and a HE351 for even cheaper. keep us informed on progress and pictures are always a plus
