I want to kind of make a sector full of my factories. A homebase almost. What factories do i need? Can you get a homebase kind of thing like a starbase? Money is no object.

Best place to do that is an unknown sector where there is lots of asteroids =)

The closest thing to a homebase in X2 is a Trading Station or Equipment Dock, without mods.

I know it's off subject, but Solar Power Plant in kingdom end rakes it quite a bit of money. Also their is on ore asteroid in Gestu Fune that has a yield of 96. About a 'home sector' the nearest unknown sector to a shipyard and a TL would be the unknown sector East of Patriarchs Retreat (which is north of Cho's Defeat. <- This has shipyard. And if that does not have as many stations as you need. Family Pride and PTNI Headquarters are in a five sector radius. And Omicron Lyrae 10 sectors away. If you are thinking about a mining thing, you could use Ore Belt it has loads of asteroids. I have five ore mines and 3 Silicon mines. All but one ore mine are closed to the public and all have Ore + Silicon being shipped out by me fleet of freighters. This gets me A LOT of money.

The OP question appears rather vanilla. I'd bounce this to X-Universe, if I had not just done that for OP's another rather similar thread.

Not sure if there is any modded "base station" for X2.

Go here (this is a guide listed on a sticky in the x-universe forum):

Once you find out more and play the game, you'll come to a point where x2 vanilla is not good enough. At that point you'll want to find scripts. You can find them in this forum.

In fact, I was working on a factory loop management system last year here:

You may find some of the information helpful, but it's way over your head right now. I only listed for reference.

Here's the complex mod:

One of hte simplest ways to make money is to get the universal trader commands. I think it comes with vanilla, or you should probably have it.

Again, this is all way too much for you to learn about. Just read the guide at the top.
