WTB VG turbo exhaust manifold

I know I'm reaching but I need a turbo exhaust manifold that will fit my VG. I have a turbo and one side of the manifold I ganked from a z31. I know the manifold wont work because that engine is mounted for rear wheel drive. If someone has done a custom manifold for the front wheel drive maxima VG motor that is what I'm looking for. Im also looking for any other parts that I need to turbo the VG like downpipe, intake tubing, etc.

what year if its a 89 + it will fit. youll just need to get the crossover pipe and the rear manigold and remove the oil filter bracket. basically turn it back to a 84-88 maxima motor. as for the intake and exaust, itl all be custom on your part.

which side do you have?
do you have the side that looks like a log or the side that the turbo bolts on it?
i have the cross over tube and the manifold where the turbo bolts on to if you're interested.

for the downpipe and the intake you'll need to fab that stuff yourself.

ok so you just need the cross over and the other log looking manfold.
might also need to fab up a new front engine mount...which shouldn't be too bad.

yes but youll have to fab a downpipe and a return bung for the oil from the turbo, everything should bolt up perfectly. youll also have to remove the oil filter adapter thingy and put a threaded one in there from an early VG. if you dont remove it then itl slam right into the exaust manifold on the left side. fairly easy swap though. just unbolt the 4 12mm bolth holding it in, remove the gasket which is probally pressure and heat sealed on there with a razor blade, take out the adapter bung(it has a slit in it but you can prolly use some channel locks, then put in the threaded piece in screw on your filter and your good to go.

15 post rule before you can start a new post.

posting a question in the for sale section is NOT a good start.
