Hi I am putting a turbo on my GU 4.2 NA. What type of manifold will suit the HT18 turbo (standard patrol turbo). Just getting parts ready.

Looking to get manifold form eBay. Not sure of Flange type for turbo to fit up to manifold.

Cheers.

hopefully someone can answer you better mate but on my GQ conversion I had to get the GU TD42T manifold as well but I'm not sure if the standard GU 4.2 N/A is the same as the GQ 4.2 N/A or the same as the turbo GU manifold.

Go through MTQ or denco mate. They are awesome quality and the ht18 will bolt straight to them.

I've recently purchased a full set of 4.2 TDi gaskets from Nizzbits, a forum vendor. Very happy with the service and all were Nissan parts. With all the parts, he even included a drawing!!

I'm sure he'll be able to answer all of your questions.

Well I got a price from Nizzbits for the original -

The TD42 turbo GU exhaust manifold come in two section.
The section for the front three ports (turbo does not bolt to this section) is $420
The rear three ports section which the turbo bolts to has two types.
non intercooled turbo type is $600
intercooled turbo type is $395

Quite expensive.
Waiting on the MTQ and Denco type. Also got a price from a turbo mob with a DTS manifold $700.

Was hoping to pick one up cheaper than this. Has anyone got any from eBay that will bolt up to the HT18 turbo?

Cheers.
