The oil in your inlet tract isn't indication, or cause enough for alarm to think your turbos are rooted. Alot of engines will have a thin film of oil or at least some indications of oil deposits in the inlet tract due to the positive crankcase ventilation valve dumping greasy air from your tappet covers staight into your inlet. Skylines in particular have very oily intercoolers and inlets due to this. Check out any standard car from any suburban driveway and you'd be suprised how dirty their inlets are. If you really want to know if your 1j turbos are stuffed, check for unreasonable play in the shaft backwards and forwards, up and downwards. This will be the best indication. Also remove and inspect the oil/water feed/return lines of a turbocharger to get an indication of it's previous life. A blocked and crusty line could indiate an overly stressed turbo on the way out.
