Default RB20 Ebay Intake Manifold...

Just wondering if anyone has bought one and installed it... Yes ebay parts are not the best, I understand, and most times turn around and bite you in the ass...But either way..

I know with the RB25 Greddy installs there are some changes to water lines and places to that are either capped or tee-d to other fittings. There just seems to be no write-ups on RB20s with intake swaps. If only more parts were available for this thing...

the casting on the inside is rough, pieces of metal ball/flake off and get run through your engine.

my lag is your courtesy head start


ATTENTION.... installing a head gasket, head studs or pistons and rods in your otherwise STOCK engine dose not make it a "built" engine! stop listing you cars for sale saying they are built when its not!!

It deffinately needed a good cleaning (burs, left of cutouts,ect.) but it has cleaned up nice. I dont think the problem with quality is going to be "that bad" with it. The welds are descent the fitment of the plates for IACV and throttle body are solid.

My biggest concers are the vaccuum lines and the coolant lines that run through the intake and TB. There are ports to add 1/8 NPT fitting for smaller vaccum lines and im pretty sure I can getaway to run the brake booster vaccuum of the intake somewhere. I just dont really know about the coolant lines. Do they have to run through the TB? Can i just simply run a loop for the coolant lines.
