Hello and thanks for taking the time to view this. I'm holping someone knows of a RB25 aftermarket turbo manifold that retains stock location and turbo. I've been searching for quite a few days through all kinds of different forums and parts sites and can't seem to find one. Any help is much appericated.

You are soo dumb. You should not own an rb25.

Are you needing a stock manifold? I'll have one available later this week. I've got a stock turbo too that needs a rebuild.

Maybe an S-Tec mani?
Wont clear the LHD Steering shaft, plus Scott is pretty much stopped working on cars since he started other businesses on the side that are non-car related.
Back to the OP, you might get lucky and find a cast iron HKS manifold.

hks has clearance issues with steering shaft also.
Full race, raw brokerage.

The rb motoring manifold is nice but I'm not trying to buy a manifold that's half the price of the motor.

gotta pay to play.
Other option is Extrude and Hone the Stock Manifold
I have a 6boost mani and the craftmanship is spot on, and the price is cheaper than both raw brokerage and fullrace.

I got quoted something like 6-700$ to extrude hone my RB20 manifold. Seems like at that price, you'd really be better off contracting someone to just build you a whole new manifold.
Extrude hone is NOT worth the price in this case.

do it right the first time, do you think you will want to upgrade again down the road? Get the right manifold once and save yourself time and money.

I dont know you might be able to find a place to do it cheaper, but for a manifold that will help quickly spool a turbo and never crack is a good deal in my book

I've looked around the internet only briefly, but I was inquired to the guys at http://www.gethoned.com/auto.php and thats what I was quoted. They seem to be top dogs and are located in my state.
If anyone has any other locations to extrude hone for less than $600 freaking bucks, PLEASE let me know!:trogdor:
there is www.extrudehone.com but I have not asked about their price charts

GetHoned.com group buy, anyone? I was actually planning on trying to organize a group buy for their services. How many would be interested in such a thing?

Could possibly be a logistic nightmare. You have to send them your manifold, I can see all kinds of shit going wrong with disorganization.

As others have mentioned, you have several options...
Contact me with what you're looking to do and perhaps there might be something we can get you sorted with.
But for those looking to switch over to a top mount on their RB...

As of 2 weeks ago, he still had a few since I thought I might have needed one. There have been people who have successfully used his mani's on LHD cars posted on different forums. If the OP can contact him is a different story.
