HKS Prototype Stainless Tubular Manifold for sale w/ wastegate

I realize that this isn't the buy/sell/trade section, but I always see people asking/complaining on here non-stop about finding a good KA manifold that doesn't have clearance problems, so here's one....

This manifold doesn't locate the turbo anywhere near the brake reservoir and was featured on HKS USA's Kouki S14 back in 98 when they were toying with the idea of making a KA turbo kit.

Comes with a Standard HKS wastegate an dbrackets to support the wastegate and manifold to prevent cracking. This manifold has NO cracks, but uses a T25 flange which can easily be replaced.

is it your manifold??

if yes, then how come you go for the SR in stead of the KA-T?

[cnichols]

Didn't want to build a KA to handle the power level that I wanted. It was cheaper for me to buy an SR, because I"m using a standalone. So, all I needed was a motor. $1300 was cheaper than re-building the KA and going to all the trouble.

if yea dont mind answering this, what where ur power goals?

[cnichols]

350+, and it wasn't the manifold restricting it. I just didn't trust the stock KA pistons to hold that. I also felt that I knew the KA pretty well and wanted to learn the SR and try something different.

Does anyone have any questions about the manifold itself?

this manifold is... old. didn't you have a GT30 on that a while back? I remember seeing it for sale maybe a year or two ago but you were asking like 4k for it all together.
