maddox710 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 All the toyo sport eBay specials are made from tin foil metal lol they crack way to quickly from what I've seen, I've only ever brought new from either zisco or Wepr. Only in td04 flange but quality stands out miles above eBay junk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) What's the best bang for buck ct9 manifold out there? Which ones am I best to avoid? they are crazy expensive new 400 + for a standard replacement mani and down pipe from wepr and that's a mild steel mani td sell one for 300 and racetech is prob well over 300 just for a mani try a local fabricators mate that what I've done and waiting on a price the bloke near spat his tea out what I showed him what I wanted and the price people charge it's just starlet tax lol Edited August 26, 2017 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 He didn't state a bugget. Plus you would spend that on buying replacements manifold over and over Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plus you would spend that on buying replacements manifold over and over no I know he didn't but bang for buck would you say 300 is reasonable for mild steel standard replacement mani that's piss easy to make just sharing my experience you don't always have to go with the names that are big on the starlet scene to get goodQuality parts at a fair price Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks dude - have built a few now, have them jigged up so easy to replicate. Ive been welding for a quite a few years but it doesn't take too long to learn if your willing to put the effort in. Spending some time with a good welder and being shown the basics can make a big difference. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbominicooper Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Prob gonna b selling my toyosport mani soon. It was brittle when I got it so I repaired the cracks and resurfaced where it was warped. Added a brace bar to the mix and it never went againSent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
