Yep Hypergear seems to have been doing well with the Brae manifolds. I'd be happy to use one too.

Yep i had a good look at the one on the ETS ute and the quality looks pretty damn good! I would use one too!

Do you have any pictures of this Rex kelways work johnnilicte?

Actually have a look at his thread, it's amazing:

back onto the manifolds sold here im still porting mine as the amount of weld in the ports etc was a little bit of a joke....can get some pictures if you guys like??

Its definitely what lets them down.. The welds aren't right.

They will need to attend to this to salvage their rep.

To be honest I think it's pointless if a smaller company/ individual (eg rex, or brae or sinco or whatever) make manifolds around the 6boost price range ($1000 + )

Having said that I have no idea how much any one of those manifolds will cost me..

Does anyone know how much a brae manifold will cost / where to buy them?

A little late in the thread but as customer service from 6Boost was raised I thought it only fair that I shared my experience for anyone else viewing this thread with an eye to purchase a manifold. I found Kyle to be easy to deal with over the phone and via email and to expand on that, once he saw the delivery destination was to a flood affected area (Bundaberg) he offered to cover the shipping costs off his own bat. Pretty happy with that. Certainly not a shot at you Scotty (especially as you are still working on my injectors!!!) it was only an 'of the shelf' twin scroll highmount and I'm certainly not saying that it is how everyone is treated but though I'd add my experience.

Whilst I haven't used it yet, I can vouch for Rex Kelway.

I'm in Sydney but had no issues at all on dealing with Rex - service was exceptional. He was flexible and very helpful when I wasn't sure on what I wanted. I sent him my twin gates and he fabricated the manifold to suit. On top of all that the price was great.

I'll post pics later of the manifold he made me SR20 T4 twin scroll, twin 38mm gates. Can definitely recommend him.

That twin gate setup looks awesome. Much space between gate and strut tower?

Should be heaps.

I have a SR 6Boost that has a tial 44 straight out the side, much like the position of the above. There is heaps of room.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
