RWD 3s-gte turbo manifold. To suit gen 2.

I have a beautifully constructed mild steel turbo manifold to suit a gen 2 3S-GTE, and CT26 or CT20b turbo.
It has never been used and is just taking up space so yeah, someone want it? I keep kicking it everytime I walk into the garage.... 
I also have a thick walled stainless manifold for sale but has a Garrett flange, not a Toyots flange.
Open to offers

Certainly will fit the engine, but I doubt it will fit in the engine bay as it was built to fit a rear wheel drive 3S....

Hey hows the car going
Finally paid the last off mine and brought it home tonight, now we can make so good progress.
So the manifold, what are the pros and cons with it, and I have to ask the question, what is the difference between it and the one you chose to use, or why did you choose not to use this one.
When you get a chance can you send some pics through
Cheers
Jon

Apologies for not getting back to you today Jon, I have been flat out at work (no surprise there). I haven't forgotten you!
Now the manifold I am using is exactly the same as the one I am selling. I made it for a guy in Darwin who is building an Improved Production race car. He appears to have dropped off the face of the planet as all my attempts to contact him seem to fall on deaf ears. This was well over a year ago so I am now putting the manifold up for sale.
The manifold is made from thick walled stainless pipe. 'Shed 10' for those in the know.
It is much stronger (and heavier) than those stainless tube ones the Japanese come out with. I'm very confident it will not crack.
Both flanges have been laser cut from 12mm thick plate and fit PERFECTLY.
The runners are not tuned length, but they are so close it's not funny.
The head flange has been made with about 1mm covering the outside of each exhaust port, making it possible to port match if you want to do this.
The manifold is a top mount job, and if you look at the pictures of my car in my signature, you will see its on about a 45 degree angle to the engine to allow a nice straight path into the turbo. The downfall of this is a little more agressive angle on the dump, but it's not too bad.
Although I'm confident the manifold wont crack, I mounted the turbo upright so I could keep the turbo nice and close to the engine. In an effort to reduce the leverage on the manifold, if that makes any sense.
Um, thats all I can think of at the moment, any more questions, fire away!
I will send you some pictures tomorrow mate, and sorry I have no idea how well it flows. Just looking at it, i'd say it's not too bad. But I just don't know sorry.
Cheers
Gabe

Damn Jon,
Just reread your post in members rides. If you are fitting a 205 3S-GTE, these manifolds wont fit. The exhaust ports are different (larger and spaced differently).
Sorry mate, should have picked up on that earlier!
And after I spent half an hour typing that reply too!
Oh well....

Jezza,
I got your PM about the brakes and I replied. Must not have gotten to you?
I could do one for a RWD 4AGZE. It makes it harder when the car isn't here as I need to make it to measurements you give me. Cost varies depending on what you want it made from too.
