Adapter Flanges?

Adapter Flanges?
I have a cracked Greddy manifold and a Mitsu/Greddy 18G turbo. I want to buy a Revhard manifold asap but I would like it to work with my 18G. The Revhard manifold has a T3 flange. The 18G turbo has a TD05(Mitsubishi) flange. I need something that will mate the two together until I buy a New turbo. Any Ideas on where to get an adapter flange for this? Thx

Just reweld it, instead of buying adapter flanges and all that mess. That should stop leak for some time, and then get manifold and T3 turbo together.

Its already welded. There is still a leak somewhere. You weld cast iron again it will crack somewhere else. The manifold is garbage, the turbo's oil seal is bad. Yea it sucks.. but I was trying to save my self some money by just buying a new manifold for now. I plan on going with a t3/t04e 60 trim and a rev hard manifold but I just got done with this setup. Dont want to put that much more money already. Got to have back up money for if stuff goes wrong. Car still boost fine but the oil is burning up on the down pipe causing smoke and the manifold leak is causing late spool up. Any other suggestions?

Who ever welded manifold for you doesnt know how to weld. And most of the time, when you use used parts that you dont know the condition of it will brake. Dont boost it if you dont have money to cover up extra expenses when somehting happens. And also if the manifold has been welded right, it doesnt mean that it will break again on the same place or somewhere else. I had cracked manifold that I got for free, it was rewelded and I never had a boost leak. It was on my car for 9 months, never had a leak.
