Item: HKS cast low mount manifold suit rb20/25, t3 flange

Age: Unknown, bought second hand 2 years ago

Condition: reasonable, manifold has a bit of residue from oil and wd40 from removal, some studs need replacing. It has a crack in the internal divider thats been there since i bought it but no external cracking. The mounting faces could do with a skim

Price: $850 ono now $550 ono

To Fit: Was fitted to an r32gtst with rb25.

Location: Eagle Vale NSW

Contact: by pm. prefer local buyer so that you can make an inspection prior to purchase

Comments: I've sold the turbo, pipes and wastegate, I'm a little surprised that everything else has sold and not this :(

Anyway, here's some pics of the bits.

I can vouch for this setup, pulls very hard.

I swear Dave if you had this up a week ago i might have jumped on it, but i just spent lots of time and money redoing all the gaskets around the stock turbo/manifold :)

How come you're getting rid of the manifold? Going high mount? Will be interesting to see how the 3071 compares.

Good luck with the sale, shouldn't take long. (apologies for the useless post :()

Thanks mate.

Only made the decision this afternoon. I figured i could sacrifice a bit of top end for a bit more bottom to midrange with improved transient response that comes with bb turbos and simplify the whole lot by going a proper garrett IW housing on the stock manifold. It's also a bit less weight over the front wheels and water cooled which can only be a benefit on the track.

I got the same setup about to go into my R32 and these manifolds are an awesome design.

Just wondering if you will sell that dump pipe separately, as my kit is missing a dump pipe.

PM me if you will ;)

Abu, i've sent a pm. I don't really want to separate but i will consider separating the dump and wastegate pipe as i can't see it effecting the sale of the rest of the kit too much (especially for r33 owners). We can chat via pm.

Daryl, at this stage no, but by all means send me a pm and make an offer if you'd like. At the end of the day I can see me getting stuck with the turbo and no interest i if go down that path though.

Now $1,800.00 ono

I'm reaching a point where I'm willing to separate, so if you are after the manifold only or manifold and gate, send me a pm and we'll chat.

Just the one in the internal splitter mentioned in the first post.

I'll send you a pm later on with price and a pic if you'd like when i get home

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
