Looking to get a T4 flanged single turbo manifold, top mount. Anyone have any experience with specific ones? I've seen vendors like Justjap, roguepi, etc. selling these manifolds, but its really hard to tell quality from just looking at pictures. I already know to stay away from ssautochrome, xs-power, etc... please advise, thanks.

A manifold that will fit a left-hand drive car would be preferable, where the wastegate tube doesnt go right into it, but i realize this may not be possible for anyone to know. my car is a left hand drive s14.

btw I am in the US, so preferably someone who will ship to the states... its tough to find decent single manis here.

The manifolds a few 3-4 ago, were below average china crap and had issues.

However, in the past 2 years there has been much wider use due to much better quality, and people have had no issues relatively speaking.

Its always good to brace a top-mount as much as you can. It stops the

cracking and what not.

so IMO - start with the above and go from there

thanks for the input.. i dont see a 26 mani listed under exoticspeed. i'll inquire via email about it... The gcg one is a T3, i'd prefer a T4 flange if possible... anyone else have experience?

hows the quality of justjap or roguepi? i think they are forum vendors

I had a look at the X-Force RB26 manifolds yesterday at Just Jap and the quality of them appears to be very very good and from memory they are around $795 ish with warranty

theres a guy on calaisturbo that makes awesome manifolds, im gonna chek them out this week... n ill let u kno pricing, his work is absolutely top notch!!

HKS kansai sevice extractors, use them on my own car, came with my T04Z kit. havent cracked or shown any signs of wear visible to the eye. thats my advice

i dont quite understand???

The manifold i ude on my own car come from the HKS kansai tuning service. After doing some googleing about them i cam up with some results. Kansai serivice is a devision of HKS that makes custom parts that are vehicle specific. the make the extractors (exh manifold) for the RB26 with a T4 flange and a 50mm ext gate setup. when i bought my T04Z kit from HKS ( a friend who is a importer of japanese cars in my country sourced all the bits and pieces that id be needing for the turbo on one of his regular buisnes trips to japan) he got evrything an the kansai shop. that is what i know of my exhaust manifolds, the manifold is very similar (if not the same) then the one on the sticky tread about cruiseliner who combined a JUN 2.7l with a T04Z, it is stickied in the forced induction preformance guide. have a look.

6boost manifolds.

Great work, they are cast mild steel pipe with extra thick flanges, gives a lifetime warranty on cracking. But to be safe its wise to support it with some extra bracing.

Well that all depends what you want !!!

He makes them to order, and can provide whatever you ask for. Hi mount, low mount, choice of turbo flange, with or without external wastegate flange. Lots of different possibilities for a Skyline.

But a six cylinder with external wastegate might be in the region of just over a grand.

Better to ask 6Boost for a quote.

If you order a 6boost manifold, make sure:

* you tell Kyle what you want it for specifically, in as much detail as is possible. He will be able to tell you

whether or not he can help you. I think each one is made from scratch, using an existing

car as a fit guide, so your requirements of 'fit an S14 LHD' might be harder than they sound >_<

* you get Kyle to _check_ each weld on the manifold individually before he sends it to you (an

unwelded section slipped through QC on mine; which I had to have welded). See

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
