Cast 1JZ exhaust manifold
Anyone know where I can find a decent cast exhaust manifold for the 1JZ?? I dont want the tubular design for numerous reasons...

i assume for a single turbo application? if thats the case i have never heard of one.
whats wrong with a tubular manifold? you always have to remember...you get what you pay for. so a cheap tubular manifold may crack and/or break on you. a quality name-brand one wont. or at least a lot less likely to.

There were a few on EBAY made by SPA I think. I know they make them for 2jz's I can't remember if they were any for 1jz. I seen one for a 2jz and I tell you, those things are well made and I am sure they can take a beating. I was also considering it for my 1jz. You may be able to adapt a 2jz cast iron manifold to fit the 1jz. I don't know what that will involve in machining.
Arnout manifolds are mentioned a lot on Supra forum. Might want to to check there. Good Luck.

Tubular manifolds crack very often. They are also too "blingy" for me. Im an old fashioned cast guy i guess you can say. You can never go worng with a cast manifold and they almost never crack, can withstand the weight of the turbo much easier, and are generally much cheaper.
