Doing some more research I saw on the HKS forum that someone said that you would have to get a top mount manny for this turbo. As it will hit the steering knuckle.

I've been planning on using the stock mannifold as I don't want to mess with oil and temp lines for a top mount.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
yeah, the conversion from RHD to LHD doesn't work well for turbo kits.  it really sucks because blitz, greddy, and hks all have really nice SR turbo kits...and the prices are quite reasonable.  but you basically have to get the manifolds reworked...and isn't that the point of an engineered turbo kit in the first place?  it's not "bolt-on" anymore.
