Well, i went thru the trouble of replacing a f'ed up wastegate actuator after finding out that i was running 15 psi!!!
the replacement WGA can be found at ATPTURBO.com
this replacement i got for $65 shipped, they have great service, i really recommend buying from them.
it is listed on their website as a 6 PSI Wastegate Actuator for SRT20 engine (Nissian Silvia)

some infor on the wastegates:
some numbers on the stock(msp) WGA:
700187-6
01143
33458
Some numbers on the new WGA:
700187-1
04135
41348
Tools Needed:
1/2" drive ratchet
3/4" drive ratchet
various sizes 14mm in 1/2 and 3/4 drive
12mm wrech with a metric side.
channel lock
flathead screw driver
small ratchet
5/16 socket to remove turbo hoses
17mm socket with 1/2" drive
technically, if you have a 99+ piece craftsman or similar tool set, you got it all!! congrats
WITH ENGINE COOL!!!
go ahead and remove the hot pipe and top radiator hose
*trick: in order not to spill coolant all over, open the radiator, then the butterflie underneath the radiator (radiator flush) then, fulsh for a lil bit until you can see the fns thru the radiator cap, then cflose butterflie and take hose off, that way everything is clean )
if you have a heatshield go ahead and remove the two top bolts and bottom bolt with a 10mm socket, then take heatshield off, it can be tricky, but not impossible.
then remove 02 sensor, even tho not really needed, you don't want to brake that expensive part, after that remove the EGR pipe from the manifold, you won't be able to completely remove it, but you have to loosen the nut that keep them together.
then go ahead and remove the two nuts, and 8 bolts from the manifold.
you'll notice that you won't be able to undo 3 of the bolts...that's where you'll need the 12mm wrench.
now, get under the car and remove the j-pipe by first removing the heatshield and undoing the 3 bolts from the side closest to the turbo and 2 bolts with springs right before the first cat.
remember to plug your turbo with a rag.
