That is the correct manifold and while an older type(very fricken old) HKS wastegate, it will work. The turbo however is funny. He claims that it is an HKS T300S. Well the compressor is but the exhuast wheel and housing is a Trust TD06 and will not bolt to the T04 style flange on the manifold. In case anyone was after the manifold it could be useful.

the turbo should work on this manifold but you still need the Trust wastegate.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...33632

I have two, I wasn't planning on selling them though. I know where two of the Trust-type manifolds in the second post are but the guy who has them wants waaaaay to much money for them.

How much are HKS Top mount manifolds going for? I know they're discontinued, but I bet I can find one if I hunt hard enough,

You have to go through individuals for these. I have seen them for $250 all the way up to $500! The Trust stainless ones can go as high as $800. There are som wacky mofos out there.

well i have people in japan and hong kong i use to get parts. but the cams were ordered through a shop in chicago. he promised me he'd have them in 2 weeks but it didnt happen because they were on back order in japan to. good luck order any cams for a ca. be prepared to wait a LONG time. my valve springs arent even here yet and i ordered those 2 weeks before i ordered the cams.
