hi all,

have up for sale my hks cast low mount external gate manifold.

said above is basically it, um its covered in some kind of high temp coating, and is in practically new condition. fairly rare, i kno i hadnt seen one of this till i had one.

please note, this item is for r33 rb25det, i had slight problems with mounting it to my r32 rb25, changing the position on the turbo made it foul on my chassis rail and strut tower (view relevant pics). actualli when u look at it, its only the actuator that was making the trouble, my plan was to block off the ext gate part and run an internal... anyways depends what turbo u wanna run as to what will fit in what and all that jazz...

THIS IS MADE FOR AN R33 RB25DET, if u wanna try and put in on something else its up to you :(

cost - $600 firm.

history - bought this item early december from a fellow sau member, from my knowledge he never used it, and cant remember where he got it from. my plans were to put it on my r32 rb25, however as stated above, this manifold was designed for an r33 engine bay, in mine there is simply not enough room.

reason for sale - as stated above, didnt suit the application i intended it to. now im in the process of changing to top mount.

location - adelaide (north east).

p/up or delivery - would obviously prefer a local buyer, but if not freight can be arranged at buyers cost.

contact - ben (me) via pm, message here or call or txt me on 0438554500

if someone can confirm it will fit rb20 im interested

the bolt pattern ie manifold-engine is exactly the same for rb20/25.

depends what turbo setup you want to use :)

as you can see my poor choice of trying to use internally gated did not work so well.

if u bolt an externally gated turbo you will have alot more room down stairs than i did.

For the record i've got one of these manifolds fitted to my r34 rb25neo using an old hks t3 turbo. We had to shave the engine mount slightly but it fitted up easy enough. It's a great upgrade

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
