Single turbo manifold options.

[Evo_bill]

I have as well as you have seen this manifold on ebay. I was wondering if anyone has had any experiance with it, OBX SUS 321. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW

Also, what about this one http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Manifo...wItem

Also, maybe a better option then gt4088r ?

The GT4094R fast spool, along with support of upto 850hp... I think I found my turbo! http://www.atpturbo.com/Mercha...e=GRT

[DriftingisLame]

Umm dude, thats just like every other ****ty ebay manifold. They've been proven on rb's time and time again to not fit properly. On many 4 cylinder applications I've seen with my own eyes how badly they crack.

If you want a quality manifold, spend $1000 on a real equal length Greddy, HKS, etc.

They even list the manifold as a 'Twin turbo header'... am I missing something or is that a single turbo manifold?

Who knows, you might get lucky and it might bolt on and work as long as you have your rb26.. But why buy an RB26 and then put an OBX manifold on it lol.

[Evo_bill]

Lol. I should know better, but its so damn tempting.

Where in the hell can you buy a HKS single for 1000?all he ones I've seen ran 1800-3000 Mostly 2450.00 which is out of the question.

[DriftingisLame]

I guess I'm not too sure on the pricing for an HKS mani.. I only look into the 20/25's manifolds and I usually see quality ones for $1000+. HKS's for 20's are all used, and roughly $6-$800. It was an assumtion, my bad.

[Yellow4g63]

I'll get some pics up of a manifold real soon. It's a simple manifold but not a log manifold like the factory 20/25. He could do a RB26 one too. Email me on Monday if I haven't gotten around to posting them yet.

[Chaos the Xile]

If you want a quality manifold, check this out! HKS! This is actually a great price for this turbo setup hahaha, mucho POWER!

Great alternative, HKS T51R

[cdorhout]

I've never seen a manifold that has a v-band turbo outlet flange. I've never seen a turbo with that kind of inlet either.

That's sweet!

[Chaos the Xile]

HKS is the only company that makes them, they say that the V-Band technology is better than the standard Square or in GReddy's Case triangular flange for a better seal and heat transfer.

EVO Bill if you are looking for a HKS mani for $1k plz refer back to my first post on this topic the link has it inside.

[Booztd 3]

Maybe I'm the only one that believes spending the extra $$ for a quality piece is worth it........but this is currently en-route to my house and should be here this week.

Full Race Twin-Scroll Twin-Divided Manifold



I'm also going to be mounting a GT4202 (twin scroll) to it as well.......should be a pretty damn responsive setup for as large of a turbo as it is

[DJButton]

Wow that looks very high quality in the picture, the boys at Full Race sure do know a thing or two. I would definitely hope you get what you pay for with it! Egay ftl, btw.

[BoostFab]

it's very nice. robotic welded. price same as your engine set.

[Chaos the Xile]

What motor is that for a Rb26?

[themadscientist]

Universal, note the four bolt holes on the two cylinders that differ between the RB26 and all others. I know a guy who used a Fullrace manifold on his SR and sings it's praises. That E-bay crap is made out of old dogfood cans or something. It's cheap for a reason.

[002-M-P]

I am in the same boat as you evobill. I might be getting a cheaper manifold like the obx (and bracing it) to start off with just to get the car running and in a couple of months get a better manifold. Anyways here is what I have found....

Full Race's manifolds are amazing pieces of work....but with a price tag to boot ($2399)... http://www.full-race.com/catal...id=51

For a new HKS manifold, the cheapest place I have ever seen it is nengun, and it is $1650 shipped (for T4 flange manifold or v-band flange manifold).

Another manifold I have heard good things about is by a company called 6boost. Their manifolds are about $1200 AUD if I remember correctly (their website is currently under construction)

[Booztd 3]

If there is enough interest in the full-race manifolds, I can get us a price-break. I am currently a dealer for full-race, and I can get them to you guys for cheaper than 2400 bucks.....

If anyone is interested, please PM me

I anticipate singing its praises too, the twin-scroll setup will REALLY help the spool up characteristics. I went with the 1.25 hotside on my GT42, just because of this manifold. If i had a regular T4 style manifold, I would have went much smaller. Not to mention those manifolds are built like brick-****houses, and will definately take a beating (especially holding my 40lb turbo up)

[themadscientist]

Wish the ****ers made a CA manifold!

[Yellow4g63]

Do CA guys spend the money on manifolds? If so hit me up and I'll point you to somoene who will make a very very very nice one.

[Evo_bill]

Should look in to a group buy maybe, for Full race mani.

[slavetothemuzic]

Should look in to a group buy maybe, for Full race mani.

I'd definitely be down for that. I'm just not lookin' to pay more for the mani than I did for an RB clip.

[BoostFab]

Wish the ****ers made a CA manifold!

call them up and start emptying your bank account, they'll surely take your money and mail you the manifold. lol

stay tune guys, i'm working on an affordable manifold with quality.

[Booztd 3]

Should look in to a group buy maybe, for Full race mani.

I can definately organize a group buy, I just need to know how many guys are seriously interested. The manifold is still going to be ballpark 2 grand but definatlely not 2400 like posted on the website. If you are interested in the full-race twin-scroll manifold PM me

There is no PM on this site Andy, what price is cheaper than $2400 on group buy? And do they make then for the RB25DET motor as well?If so I would be interested!

[002-M-P]

It looks as if it fits both motors (has two different bolt patterns on it at cylinder 3)...plus the website shows it as RB25/RB26 turbo manifold.

[Sil240]

Well if it fits the Rb25 It'll fit the RB20 also.But..... I refuse to spend 2k on just a manifold.Why don't you guys who are ready to spend $2000 look on ebay Jap Part Specialist has a Greddy and a Blitz WHOLE TURBO Kit for $2500 and $2800. Manifold, Turbo, Piping, Hoses, and all hardware.....

http://cgi.ebay.com/430HP-TRUS...wItem

http://cgi.ebay.com/450HP-BLIT...wItemDoesn't make sense to me, unless your building a Drag car. Plus I know a guy that will make you a custom manifold for a little bit cheaper. Enzo at Headertek.Give him a call if your interested.

[slavetothemuzic]

But will a GReddy mani fit in an S13?

It'd be a shame to dump $2500 only to find out that you STILL need a manifold.

Personally, I think $2K is still high. I think < $1500 would be reasonable.

[Booztd 3]

My apologies, I am used to sites that have PM enabled, lol

My email address is [email protected] I have a few websites, http://www.booztd3.com and http://www.rbz32.com if you also need to get ahold of me.

In order to get a more concrete price on the manifold, i would neet to first find out how many guys are seriously interested in it.

The RB manifold is for RB25 & RB26 motors

I'm not going to debate other brand manifolds vs the full-race manifold. I know all the work they've put into engineering them and I know how well they hold up, no second-guessing the quality. Thats good enough for me

[Chaos the Xile]

Ok one, those manifolds prolly won't work on out sawpped vehicles due to the fact that the dump is going to be designed for a RHD vehicle. We are going to have to modifiy the way the turbo dumps or even the fitting on the manifold itself. If I am going to spend 2k+ on a manfild I would rather it be the kind that bolts up no issue for the US RB swapped cars such as S13 and S14 chassis. And for that Full Race mani Twin Wastegated that sucker will hold a ton of Boost Pressure, and another plus is the T4 Flange. Most aftermarket mani's here hold prolly a max of a GT30R after that clearence issues start to set in.

I will def be contacting you about this nad trying to get a group buy on these manifolds, after my taxes come back I am hard-on for one!

[Booztd 3]

Sounds good man

Also, dont forget that the Full-Race manifold is a true twin-scroll manifold. It employes one wastegate per 3 cylinders. This also allows you to run a BIG hotside twin-scroll turbo with the spool characteristics of a much smaller hot-side. My 1.25 (or 1.29, i forget) is going to spool like a .95

[Sil240]

Yeah never thought about the fitment of the wastegate vs the brake booster and steering shaft.

Exhaust manifold holding boost???Am I missing something??

Well I personally wouldn't want a T4 flange really. I've only got the little guy RB20.And something with a T4 flange is going to spool at like 4 grand probably (pulling #'s outt my @ss)

I personally would like to know how that Greddy, HKS and Blitz mani fit the S13/14.With and w/o mounts.

If anyone knows pass on the info!!!!

Just looked at the pics, the Greddy looks like the WG would be all up in the steering shaft.

But...... not sure the it looks like the Blitz kit would fit, unless the Turbo is going to hit the engine mounts. I remember Carl saying that the HKS mani just missing his engine mount or something.
