Careless Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I have a ForcedPerformance GT3582 HTA w/ 1.04 T4 hot side on it, everything fits great! I like the cut of your jib. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I picked up a used Greddy T4 manifold off eBay for ~$350, the only thing I had to do (well other than fixing a crack and resurfacing the flanges...) was modify the wastegate pipe, but that was mainly because I put a TiAL 44mm vband on it instead of using a 4 flange 40mm wastegate it was setup for originally, it might have even fit with the wastegate pipe not modified.. I have a ForcedPerformance GT3582 HTA w/ 1.04 T4 hot side on it, everything fits great! Does your manifold look like the one I posted a pic of above? It was suppose to have been a copy of the Greddy. Also, would you have any pics of it, and pics of the needed mod to make it fit. thanks!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

streeteg Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Just as an update the manifold was ditched due to the horrible wall thickness and setting myself up for intense crackage. Replaced with an Stec number. Will keep posted on results either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macr32 Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) here are a few pics of the Stec manifold bolted up in a s30 chassis. Hey Soileau after looking at you manifold from Stec it looks like e might have changed the design a little bit from the original prototype( my manifold), your wastegate tubes are located in different positions. The next time I talk with Scott from Stec i will ask him for sure. your manifold looks like it might be a little bit easier to mod. If anyone would like more pictures let me know, as it is still setup. Edited March 31, 2010 by macr32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed260Z Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Are there any clearance issues with the steering shaft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streeteg Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 Are there any clearance issues with the steering shaft? steering shaft clearance was my next question. After this east coast sonic meet I am going to put the car down for the manifold turbo finally. It looks like it will be close with the shaft-- but there is a slight chance that it may fit when I eye it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macr32 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 the w/g tubing will to be modded. as it is directly in the way of the steering linkage. other than that everything else is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angel Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 we have used love fab with great results but they are kind of price overkill. Now everyone wants to charge like fullrace manifolds which is rediculos. Our its a t4 single scroll with a 60mm tial wastegate on a twinscroll T78-33d Trust turbo. we compensate the lag with 270 custom tomei cams.But we have this in or rb25det dragon. here a video so you can have an idea what I'm talking about http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiFGKdlt-CY So our best option now would be to go with fullrace from now on. The love fab I heard it comes with a warp flange due to lasen cut. But thats not the hole problem.The real problem is that Lovefab doesn't tell you.So you most check the flange and make sure you will get proper seal. I don't think many here need this types of manifolds.But if you do decide to go for higher power and top quality you should make sure to check warp flanges prior to install. Now about the ones mentioned here.Well You should Have a look on the inside.For they are known for little paiticules from welding that falls of and ends up in your turbo.So please inspect them properly inside and out.
