Default WTB 1jz single turbo manifold

I hear rumors of people that make them but not sure who and the quality, there are a couple of manifolds on ebay one of which I currently have but I'm not content with the quality and it appears that cracks are forming all around by the turbo flange. There is one on ebay that looks decent but its from thailand and cost about $500 shipped and will take a while to get here, and the other good option I'm aware of is the mtr one but the cost is at $925. If you have a quality used one, new one, or some info on where I can get something good for a bargain let me know.

thanks in advance
Gabe

my turbo blew so I'll be trying out whatever I get with a new billet wheel turbonetics 64mm I'll make a thread on that whenever it comes in.

I forgot to put T4 flange, I want one with an undivided flange but I will consider all options since I don't have all the time in the world to get my car back up and running good

MTR is not available anymore, i tried to get one about a month ago. The $500 ebay one looks like the best option available, unless you want to spend $2000 on a greddy or a custom made one.

how long did your driftmotion header last exactly? was it the braced/reinforced version? i went with the driftmotion, im not really thrilled with the fitment.... and if yours is cracking thats not a good sign either

driftmotion has one for soarer and supra I used the soarer one fittment is nice but you have to grind the bottom row of studs on the head and its starting to crack everywhere where the runners meet by the flange you can look inside a new one and see poor craftsmanship. I guess I might have to get the ebay one.. I'll keep this open a little more just in case someone has one. oh yeah and I didn't brace it but if you were to see my runners you couldn't justify all the problems on the bracing alone.
