so ever since i did my aristo swap i had to use custom cut upper radiator hoses or the cxracing pipe that came with my original intercooler. i didnt like the exposed metal pipe and im sure the silicone couplers that came with it were leaking within a year. than i went to the parts store and looked at all diff types of radiator hoses to find the closest fit. the problem is the radiator pipe is a larger diameter than the water outlet for the engine. this of course because i have a aluminum radiator that is a direct replacement for the toyota aristo. so, truing to locate an original aristo upper radiator hose, i stumbled across this website called megazip.net and its awesome. i found it very easy to navigate. i was able to easily search out aristo parts. i searched for an authentic mass airflow sensor and found it for 364 smackers. steep but original toyota parts. than i found my aristo jzs161 2jz gte vvti upper radiator hose for 25. bam!!! said **** it and bought it and agreed to the 25 in shipping. once i paid i immediately got status updates and kept getting them as my hose moved around. i wound up getting my hose in just five days. couldn't believe it. now pandoras box is open for me getting more oe toyota stuff for my motor. im pumped and geeking out right now. heres some pics.

 

Cool find. Thanks for sharing! I do have a radiator upper pipe that I have been thinking about replacing because not being OEM, it doesn't have the best fitment. $50 for an upper pipe is steep but if it's a good fit for my (future) upgraded radiator, I'd strongly consider it.

 

fell in love with OE ****. had to go back for more. bought new cam cover, cam sensor and crank seal and oil pump o rings. yes im geeking hard.
