Stock twins questions!

[ihiryu]

Okay as some of you know I was 2jzgeT w/ 7m electronics. I got tired of dicking around with it trying to getting it running right; and I've spent most of time troubleshooting the car so I bit the bullet and bought an aristo 2J.

I have all the stuff from my 2jzge to swap over (sumps, brackets, mounts, and what have you.)

I've heard mixed reviews on banging in the firewall; but that's not my question.

Sorry for long winded.

But what are you guys on stock twins doing for downpipes??

get a custom downpipe from a muffler shop or buy one

I looked around last night and couldn't seem to find one for the A70 chassis. I wanna stay away from muffler shops because all their stuff is crush bends around here.

Do you have one you recommend?

You can always look at the selection at summitracing. All their bends are mandrel. Just dont confuse crush style benders with a true roll type mandrel. You can piece it together from there, and have it welded up.

Look for a JDM MKIV downpipe on rinkya or ebay. You might need to fab up a midpipe tho.
Or, just run the stock aristo DP till you can get one made.

Wow was a long time ago. I had bought a downpipe from SC and went to the local muffler shop to have them finish the rest. The us is totally different from the aristo. If I recall I ended up getting a us y part to make everything work. I'm sure some other guys will chime in. fyi the muffler shop didn't have a universal aristo part that would bolt up.

If I remember correctly stock has a terrible turn as far as flow goes.

That might do the trick

Cut the stock dp flange off and make your own.

A crush bent DP wont really hurt much with teh stock twins. The JDM DP flange is only a 2.5" hole anyways. So a crush bent 3" will be ~ the same.

Okay couple of other suggestions.

Mike's link I'm assuming this is the downpipe
ehh. for some reason pic isn't showing up:3d_frown:

My downpipe for US twins

The flange/ won't mount up with the aristo twins without doing what tissmo/Justin suggested.

My question is if you were already 2jzg "T" are you planning on using that turbo. I would if you already have it.

 

[86_sports_1jz]

if your looking to fab up a custom dp you can go to a local semi truck shop and buy bends there, thats how i made mine

 

[ihiryu]

The thing is I don't have the stock down pipe for the Aristo engine. I didn't even know that the USDM and JDM turbos were different (besides the blades). I don't really want to use that turbo that I had on my old GE-T setup cause it took forever to spool. I just wanna play around with the stock twins for now and slowly amass more parts later on down the road.
