Default turbo manifold NA-T

Do they no longer make t3 exhaust flange'd turbo manifolds for the 2jzge? I can't seem to find one anywhere I search. All the header type manifolds I've seen are t4 flanged.

the only one i found was in austraila ..others have either used an adapter piece to make it work or tapped a t4 head for t3 flange..

use an adapter plate and you can always take it off when you upgrade later down the road

yea i couldnt find any either. as far as the adapter plate im curious if anyone has ever done this? the adapters i've seen add another 2.5" in height and raise the compressor up. maybe a simple adapter flange can be welded on to the t4 flange.

so many people have been asking this question lately its surprising.
a generic answer on any manifold most of the time is yes, you can weld a new flange on, given you have the height clearance. If you are running a huge turbo it could be a problem but that shouldn't be happening with a t3 framed turbo and just the extra height of the flange.
the bolt on adapter doesnt work well with the stock intake manifold, there isnt enough clearance.
Tapping the t4 flange seems to be the easiest solution if that works well.
I would recommend running a t4 turbo however, the 2jz likes big turbos.

Its because everyone wants to run the HX35 (or similar) and its a T3 flange. Which is exactly what I want to do too.
