I am looking at fabricating a downpipe and i am wondering if any of you are using a supra downpipe on your aristo's. i keep getting conflicting information that the flange for the supra is different than the flange of the aristo.
The flange I am speaking of is the three bolt flange that bolts up to what looks like an O2 housing. At least it houses the O2 sensor. Any help much appreciated.

I wouldn't fuck with that then, unless u want boost spikes, followed by putting a restrictor in lower, thus canceling out what gains u made up top. _________________

Just noting again, if the plan is to bore out the stock wastegate, fit a bigger flapper and change actuator. It doesn't work, still spikes. _________________

Purely the boost spike, if your working an external in, then no worries, shouldn't have a problem. We're against it on the stock set up because piles of people have been advised against doing it, then done it, then come back and asked how to fix the boost spike. My own car has a bored out wastegate with the biggest flapper that can fit, etc. Won't run less than 1.4 Bar with no EBC hooked up, more on cold nights............ Not that I'dd care if I had a fuel system to support such boost -.- _________________

To answer your qustion yes they are the same. Changed my jzs147 exhaust when i got it . last week did my bros on his supra was the same flange. dont know if dump would fit though as aristo one looked like it had diffrent bends

Finaly an answer to the question, thank you very much.
one of the many reports I have heardis that it will work.
But more importantly I just wanted to know if the flange i havein hand will allow me to build my own downpipe. Thanks again
