Greddy has one that fits. They have it listed for all Toyota and something else. Either way, I have it and it works perfect. Once you get it ... you should get the matching oil cap.

The ones on that website doesn't seem to be authentic.

Don't the real ones cost around 30-40 dollars? Why are they so expensive? Do they make any noticeable improvement?
