Just google image Rex Kelway manifold.

I currently run his low mount manifold on my SR but getting him to make a high mount T3 external gate manifold in the next couple weeks.

i forgot we gave a shit about SR manifolds..

Forgot I gave a f*ck about you, ya clown.

He was talking about SR manifolds!

But hey, if all you can afford is these manifolds, go for it. I know Id spend the little extra for a lot better quality.

How is it that the SR manifold is fkn rubbish and if I got something like that I would throw it into the Tasman but the RB manifold just above looks half ok

cause SR's are useless junk like 1J's :P

and I have found a few rex kelway manifolds for rb's but have no idea how to get in touch with him, but this isnt the thread for it..

Keep up the good work Kam, If I can ever go highmount ill be sure to look here

clown? haha.. go away with your shit sr and your kelway manifold mate no1 gives a shit. go hate on manifolds in a different thread u big high roller.

lol an hours work man, i am the SR specialisto'

why does everyone keep comparing this guys manifold to others that are 4x the price or more... its like nobody can appreciate a bargain.

if i were crans id be stoked with that manifold, and laughing at people who paid 4x that

+1. Pending results they look like great value so far, i'd certainly be keen if i was looking for a high mount manifold.

Stoked with a manifold that's no better than a cheap china stainless item. IMO these look really bad and I wouldn't use one if I was given it but that's my opinion.

Why are you guys using them beside being cheap?The only gain I see you getting is being able to say you have a steam pipe manifold but NOT a quality built manifold!

Now sits back and awaits the b*tching instead of people listening to an opinion with out taking offense!

look champ, everyone knows the china SS actually do a decent job. the problem is not their performance, its their strength.

if you can buy a decent manifold that will work and wont break for a good price, why not?

the man is selling his product for what it is. hes not trying to sell a T4 TS manifold that will out perform the competition.. making an open frame housing is no secret science,especially at the 300kw most people will use these for. let it go.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
