renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi was wonderin if uz could help me. I have a starlet glanza and i keep getting problems with manifolds . Up to now i have went through 5 and i thought it was because i needed engine mounts. Obv that wouldnt help it but i have polybushed the mounts and still get the manifold splitting away the full way round the square that bolts to the turbo. Any idea's what am doin rong?

morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Buy cheap buy twice. You'd be better off with a stock ported one until you can afford a decent one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 I can afford a decent one just wonderin what one will be best? P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Ahh now thats the better question! You running Ct9 still?Have you got a braced decat? Edited February 19, 2013 by morgey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Still ct9 yeh and no its a blitz cast one but its not braced Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Blitz one is probably the best ct9 decat so your sorted there. Decent ct9 manifolds, wepr, race-tech, zisco etc. All can be bought through the forum, traders section. Wepr are on tgtt but. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Even tho its not braced? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Yeah man, they are solid, cast iron if its the same one i'm thinking of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Yeah blitz ones are fine in most cases.Get a decent manifold, some of these are braced as well i believe, not sure on which ones if they are though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 But will it not be puttin alot of strain on the manifold because of the weight ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 You can port a standard mani loads and it'll flow ok, but a WEPR, Zisco, TD, Race-Tech mani will flow better of course Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 The blitz decat bolts up to the stock brace - so if the bracket is still on the block there's no reason to not have it braced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renfrewshiremod_craig Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Defo no bracket on the block to bold it to i take it you cant buy them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Make one or buy a braced decat, im sure someone will have pictures of the brace on the blitz decat buddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Defo no bracket on the block to bold it to i take it you cant buy them Its just the standard bracket which is normally bolted to the block that you need, somebody breaking a car or who has upgraded their turbo setup should sell you one for pennies.

Patches Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 i wouldnt buy a wepr manifold if you need one in a hurry, im still waiting for one i ordered at the start of january. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 i wouldnt buy a wepr manifold if you need one in a hurry, im still waiting for one i ordered at the start of january. Me too! Good job i wasnt in a rush. Sure they'll be worth the wait as Sachas stuff is the best by a long shot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
