That was my thoughts on it aswell Hams, For 300 can you go wrong ?.. if it breaks after a year you buy another one and so on.


Rather than spend 1200.. or some other rediculious price on a brand name

 

[ZaZZn]

See the thing is everyone says it's going to break not one person has broke one that i heard of..

Too much hearsay on the internet thats the problem.

 

[coz]

Yep, or if you're that worried about stress cracks, add some of your own bracing

Thats what i'm most likely going to do when it arrives.

 

[HamsMKIV]

Truthfully cracks in the welds has more to do with the filler rod used and the steel that's used in construction than design. Bracing likely wouldn't help it much if it's made of 304.

I was going to buy one but there were 2 problems:

- Shipping was quoted at $200
- He sent me pictures of this "1J" manifold, and it was a 2J manifold in the pictures.
- He claims he has sold many to 1J owners, but still can't provide a real picture.

This is from Thailand, so if you get screwed over there is nothing you can do about it.

Not worth the risk for $500 imho. I volunteer someone else to buy it. Hopefully the pictures he sent are wrong. I'm going to try twin WRX turbos for now, very cheap. I got 2 turbos, all the oil lines, all the flanges, all for $500.

A local guy bought 2 of them.. i'll let you know how they turn out..

Just found this thread, so might be a little late to jump on. Anyway, I'm Marc from Stryder ... we manufacture and sell these 1JZ exhaust manifolds. Just to let you guys know I'm here if you have any questions.

 

[SlimFastSupra]

stryder, can you send me a real picture?

Everytime I asked for a picture of the 1JZ manifold, someone sends me a picture of a 2JZ manifold.

Just took this this morning:

 

[lpolo69]

manifold looks great man!

 

[ZaZZn]

how doesa it fit?

 

[stryderTH]

From what I'm told, their are no fitment issues...straight bolt on

 

[Guest]

Cant beat the price, but is it just me or are those exhaust gas openings different shape/diameter? Looks great tho thanks for chiming in and posting the actual photo.

Just took this this morning:

 

[IAmAnMKIIIWannabe]

yeah looks like the 2nd and 5th are off

 

[perf0rmance]

So what's the word on this guy???

It says he's banned....why? So is the manifold good???

 

[supraturbo1987]

THAT is NOT a 1jz head flange....this is one....check the pattern difference...that pic is a 2jz manifold flange....

[Ayzianboy]

no, 2 and 5 are right, they should both be 5mm less than the others from what ive read online.

 

[Ayzianboy]

the bolt holes look right, but the flange is definitely different. don't know if that would affect the fitment?

 

[PM-Performance]

the holes should be correct.
If you look at the stock manifolds, the holes are smaller on the middle ports

 

[Gocasen]

He probably got banned for selling the manifolds without permission :/
