hey guys i am putting a high mount gt35r turbo on my stagea and am having troubles with manifolds not fitting . i now have a 6boost manifold and it fits the engine but the turbo hits on the rocker cover badly . also there is no room for a dump pipe to fit between the manifold and fire wall.

i am running out of ideas this is the second manifold i have bought as the first was my own fault and bought off e bay . has any one else come accross this problem before .please help . manny thanks in advance bernard .

I have a 6boost RB25 mani and ive dummied it up with a GT35 and everything sat very nicely.

Im not aware of any differences between the stagea 25 and the R33 one so il be interested to see this

Post up some pics.

thats funny it looks dodgy as...cough ebay?... gotta ask what size rear housing have you got on the turbo? Im sure with the "genuine" 6boost one, kyle should be able to help you out atleast... if you talk to him and explain whats happening

i have noy got pics of the 6boost one yet as my camera been playing up i bought the 6boost one second hand it has no markings on it but the guy has told me that is what it was .i was in desperate need so i bought it . where could i get a new 6boost one from.

Why not look at going custom? At least you know it will fit comfy and work then... Assuming nothing else fits. But if you keep buying and selling manifolds that dont fit, your going to do your dough.

just do the dodgey, take it down to an exhaust shop and get them to refit the flange on the manifold so the turbo can fit on. probly the cheap and easy way out i think

Kyle spends a lot of time on the collector, filing, smoothing etc, it might be tricky getting a XYZ exhaust shop to modify it. I would 100% call Kyle and talk about your options.

hey guys i scrappedthat manifold and bought a xforce one every thing bolts up fine now wish i could find the guy that sold me that so called second hand 6boost one on boost cruisin and i would shove it up his arse. as every one on here says 6boost are neat this one is not that neat so i am thinking i got had . and he sold me some cheap shit one does the 6boost one have any markings on it to identify it . well if any one needs scrap stainless now i your man ha ha i have 3 good rb25 flanges now as i am going to scrap the rest of the manifold s or if any one wants one to modify will gladly send at your cost. cheers thanks for your help guys and girlys.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
