well maybe its my conclusion, the cost of mine to be made , ceramic coated and delivered from NZ was equal with 6boost without any coatings or postage so its a win in my mind, customer service was great too...

Have you put a straight edge on the flanges? How a bout a photo of inside the collector?

Divided 1.01 fo schizzle (edit they don't come 1.06 in divided)

And ram in as much boost as possible, those GTX turbos love boost.

I would dare say a divided 1.01 on a proper twin scroll manifold will destroy a 0.82 and every other -5 -7 -9 -10 GTR out there.. VCT, single, twin scroll and e85 forever in my heart LOL

Atp make a divided 1.06

Haven't found a 1.01 in a t4

i used ordered a T4 twin scroll single gate for my Borg Warner.

Lifetime warranty (i think 6boost might be limited)

and he also said CRG manifold fit around the factory air con lines, which 6boost do not (my mechanic learnt first hand on his GTR).

$1,190 shipped to Sydney

Not bad

This is true. The large pulsation dampener would be touching one of the runners. I slightly bent mine around a bit and then cut the ends and had my AC shop install 2' of rubber AC hose and swivel fittings between them. Forgot to add that. Thanks for reminding me.

FYI the full-race was my first choice but doesn't work with R32 AC compressor NOR the R32 Power Steering...that was out for me since I don't have access to these parts easily in the states and my stuff should work fine.

6boost warranty is useless anyway, my tuner had a car with a heat wrapped 6boost, it crystalized and cracked and rusted and basically fell apart, kyle didn't want to know about it.

He does say if it's heat wrapped it won't be warranted though.

6boost can be funny at times, he made a twin scroll v band manifold for a 180sx I'm putting together. Looked tits and all, till we went to mount the turbo on and couldn't close the bonnet.

Next was that the turbo was clocked so much there was about 1cm to fit on a vband to the rear end and that's it, there wasn't any room for a dump to be constructed.

No dramas, called Kyle explained the lot and he paid for shipping both ways, although it did take a whole month for the fix.

So for me neither shining positive feedback but no negatives either.

I'd love to see your work. Can you fab up a Gibson manifold?

For what it's worth lads, I been chasing a gts-r manifold for a while now....

Getting over waiting as we all know how rare they are and people asking $2k+ for them when/if they do come up is a bit hard to swallow for something so old...

CRG is fabbing up an R31House style manifold for me in a few weeks. It won't look as flashy because you'll see welds on the joins as it will be made from steam pipe instead of one piece stainless runners. But we had a good ten min chat on the phone yesterday about it and he's very confident he can replicate one! I'll probably make a new thread when I get it...

When I got my Sinco manifold made I went to see him - he measured the engine bay and I gave him the turbo and wastegate. Fitted first time. I realise not everyone can do that but it is a big plus if you can use a reasonably local fabricator.

Not 6-Boost or CRG but I went with a Fullrace TS coated manifold and down-pipe for my 33gtr.

Very well made and works a treat with the EFR 8374 iwg.  Highly recommend these manifolds. 

They are not cheap but if you want quality this is the one  (for me anyway)

Had to cut the down pipe in one spot and re tig it for a perfect tension free fit.   easy fix.

There jig is an R32 which is probably why.

    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.  
    • It's more like on average the things I see a lot of things going wrong. Yes, usually the people who reach out are the ones who are having problems but on average it feels like mechanics and tuners here aren't really competent. I swing between thinking my standards are just way too high and wondering whether people really are just this dumb. I just had the strangest 10+ reply argument on a Facebook group over someone insisting that the factory R34 GTT boost control solenoid reduces boost pressure to 5 psi when it's on and raises boost pressure to 7 psi when it's off despite showing the exact plumbing in the factory service manual and the solenoid behavior detailed in the FSM.
