Hmm, Im not 100% sure if there is a difference with the VVTI runners but dont see why there would be. Is the upper ffim section from a 2JZ or 1JZ? No I wish I did have some pictures though, cause they were so close to matching it was almost like it was meant to be.
This really has me scratching my head as to why it would be so different from mine..

ok, im going to do some searching around.
SC51, do you happen to know what your manifold came off of? USDM or JDM? Im going to see if I can find out exactly what my manifold came off of so we can get this cleared up and get you squared away and get your FFIM installed.

^also didn't you get the 5th bolt to line up with a different type bolt for middle section, cause as you can see mines far from close.

Says its for a 93-98 GTE JDM says comes without egr port, but yet mine has something on the bottom ill have to plate over..egr? I have read that you can tell a difference because of a vacuum port too, can't recall. I mean worst case I'll just make a thin adapter plate and port that. doesn't seem hard.

Yeah I did notice that..Im leaning towards your manifold is USDM. I just got verification that the manifold I have is in fact JDM. Im going to compare the vacuum ports to mine in the morning and see if I can spot a difference..but I did notice that the 5th bolt hole was missing/covered...
If you can, take a picture of the other side of the manifold for me too, I want to try and make sure I can spot all the differences between JDM and USDM and pack as much info into this thread as possible, unless I can get a mod to unlock my old thread and just cram it all into one spot..
Sorry about all this, if I would have known there was that big of a difference from the start I would have made sure to tell you to get a JDM mani from an Aristo/Supra...

+1 for the idea but -10 million for flow and making power those runners are so far off you would be kicking yourself for installing the tt upper on the na lowers.... just get an aftermarket manifold if your that worried about it personally id just keep the ge intake setup.

Since I went with the FFIM, my throttle response seems to be slightly sharper, make the engine bay much more presentable IMO, and allows to run larger framed turbo chargers without coming in contact with the upper i/c pipes..which in my case I had no choice but to go with an FFIM cause of the size of the turbo.

TurbodreamZ, So after looking at your FFIM thread I noticed you have made a plate for the weird port on your manifold same as mine. The only difference I see between the two if your looking on the top on the manifold toward the back mine has a threaded hole and indent for my brake booster line I think. Yours doesn't seem to have one.

That is correct, there is a cover plate(was on there when I got it from DJKevin), and no spot for the brake booster. I am leaning towards the possibility that your manifold is from a USDM Supra just cause of the brake booster. I think the JDM GTE manifolds pulled the vacuum for the booster from a different spot, but not 100% clear on that.
