2rz mini header on 3rz

[awthorn]

Maybe someone can help shed some light on this topic. I have a 3zr-fe with a cast cracked manifold ( who doesn't). I have read that the 2zr miniheader will fit but I have also read about some issues with fitting, something to do with CA. I am trying to source a used "mini header" 2001-2004.

All that said can anyone shed some light on which versions of the 2zr that will fit and how to tell? I don't want to have to purchase a new one for $170 ish + shipping but I am about to give up. Thanks in advance!

The downpipe on the tacomas is different, they use a 2 piece setup, and the 4runner is one piece all the way to the cat, not sure if this effects being able to use it or not though.

I am pretty sure my 3zr has a two piece set up, I will have to check tonight when I get home from work. Maybe I can get a few pictures.

So I looked under the hood and the vehicle when I got home from work. Definitely a 2 piece set up, took some pics. You can see a large crack in the middle of the manifold around ports 2/3 and then the large one by the EGR. Bolts don't look too rusted on either. But it looks like I might have found the answer to my question on a thread on Pirate 4x4.
