I believe it has a t3 footprint, so a GT35R (aka GT35/40) would be an excellent replacement.

if i remember correctly the RX-6 has a really small turbine. I think the RX-6 has a odd turbine flange that is quite smaller than the T3. Its probably a IHI specific flange ... I was always confused why Apexi used such a tiny turbine on that turbo kit
good luck

i new rx6 turbo is close to $2000, I looked a little into this a while ago. I think you're only option is going to be either have some kind of new flange welded on or go with the new rx6.
