E36 exhaust manifold in E30

[Roysneon]

Quite simply, how different is the E30 and E36 exhaust manifolds and can I use an E36 manifold on an E30?

[Dj Buttchug]

i believe there is no difference. and yes you can use the m44 manifold. check realoem for part numbers to be sure

[mr.vang]

is m44 manifold better build or what?

[Dj Buttchug]

no. they are both the same except for the screws in the top of the mani right where the exhaust ports are
m44

Cool, thanks buttchugz, I'm doing a swap into my rhd car and found an E36 rhd manifold from Sskoda.

[Roysneon]

Part #s are different, hoping it will still work for me.

[Dj Buttchug]

oh shit. i have no idea bout RHD... that changes everything it might not clear the steering shaft and what not...

Yeh RHD fucks everything up. I have been looking around for custom headers for RHD and can't find shit.

[Dj Buttchug]

maybe build one??

[Massimo]

Yeh I am thinking of doing that then making more selling them for monies.

Shipping to Canada would be a bitch on one or I'd be down lol. According to some people on E30zone the E36 mani will clear the steering and will only require the exhaust piping to be cut/rewelded, which is no big deal for me.
