hey
i am desparatly seeking a GU TD4.2T exhaust manifold. from the hour i spent ringing around today it seems like they are similar to rocking horse sh!t.
can anyone point me in the right direction? or have one from a gu they have upgraded to a stainless manifold etc etc.
please dont suggest nissan dealers as $800 + is just ridiculous.
thanx in advance

wreakers will sell the turbo kit complete, GU run a T3 flange so you could use a DTS manifold from MTQ, this would proberbly be the cheapest option.
DTS use a low mount turbo. From memory around $460ish each or pm oondy.

if they didnt want to seperate, maybe buy the kit and flog the parts you dont need... theres always buyers of turb's on here

You could try AXT Turbo in Dandenong, I think they get their own manifolds cast that flow a bit better than stock. No doubt would be cheaper than Nissan.
maybe try them.

Try Deco in Wagga, they got mine for me and did say they could get more if I needed them.

thanx for the replies.
i finally found a std gu from a wrecker in north qld. and for about a 3rd of the price local rip off wreckers wanted to sting me IF they had one.
for what its worth, "4X4 FNQ" realy good to deal with and i had my manifold from west of cairns to my door in brisbane in 2 days.
