G'day peoples, I'm interested in anybody whos made up their own manifolds.

High mount/ low mount, whatever it may be.

Just looking for an aftermarket manifold and really not satisfied with their shape. The only shape I liked was this HKS stainless tubular zorst that I saw on ebay for about 1600 bucks :D. Even that looked like it could be improved, maybe you have a bit of a room issue under the bonnet of a Skyline.

Mainly interested in a manifold suited to a high powered RB20DET, so if you are willing to share some info on the ideal manifold, made one yourself. I'll pass on my thoughts as well.

Cheers

Turbine.

the best exhaust manifold I have seen for RB20/25's is the GTSR Group A from Nissan. It is equal length, exceptionally well made and utilises the superior (for circuit racing) low/rear mount. A true work of art.

Not a good picture, I have better ones somewhere, I'll post them up later.

were can those GTSR manifolds be picked up?

R31House... or 2nd hand.

Considering there are only 800 original item... which i dare say a few have died...

2nd hand wont be easy.

R31House want a small gold mine for thier replica's unfortunately.

Thanks for the feedback on this guys, no doubt I'll be able to source out a manifold from all your replies.

I've only ever seen the GTSR exhaust manifold once in my life at a car show in Melbourne and I had my eyes glued to it for about 30 minutes checking it out. Real nice.

Still, I'm looking for the the one that follows the exhaust port angle with no bends for at least 2" out of the head.

I'll gather up some pics of the setup once I get one bought or made up.

Talk later guys

holy crap, no way that would fit in a lhd s chassis!

looks like its a pretty advanced manifold especialy for the time.....

wonder what a new technology turbo would do on a rb20 equiped with that manifold.

Yeh it would fit just fine. Remember our car has no inner gaurds. I could afford to have the header pipes longer than that still.

Could well have been my one?

Or the one from Rons old car which went to SYD :D

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
