As for the fitment, it has to do with the MAF that you car comes with. Yours is an OBD II hotwire MAF as opposed to the OBD I Karman Vortex MAF. The fitments might be different, but either way you're wasting $200. No power gains from a shiny pipe in your engine bay. A lot of people are going to tell you to go build a BFI (Big F-ing Intake) and im inclined to agree.

I am using Injen piping from a '93 on my '97. It lines right up perfectly, I just had to make a T for the vaccuum lines as there must be an extra one or two for it. I did however reuse my stock airbox with a panel filter (K&N) as it seems to be the way everyone was getting actual power from any kind of intake. Unless you have $ to completely waste to have a chrome piece of pipe, follow the others advice on the BFI.

Yours is a 97, they sometimes set the make model and year ahead of time even though the production date is a year ahead of the model's year.

P.S. would the air intake box and snorkle leading to the front of the fender from a supra fit on my car?

i notice slight gains from the bfi on my 93 300. i also use a k & n panel filter by the way. throttle response is obviously increased to me and it makes a loud sucking noise from the airbox when accelerating hard. I dont know about real horsepower gains but it lets the car breathe better than the stock airbox. i think that a top speed was reached much easier with this mod.
