Toyosports or K-tec Exhaust Manifold
- Thread starter lincroftonline

I can't seem to be able to source a new manifold anywhere, KTEC or Toyosport! Any idea what's going on, or where I can get a good replacement SS manifold for my 197? Thanks
In the same boat. I'm waiting for the Toyosport manifold on ebay to come back into stock. I contacted them and they said to try in 4 weeks (that was about 3 weeks ago).
This one:

I can only find the KTec one in their workshop services sections. The parts only section just says can't find and gives you a contact number.

I called and spoke to K-Tec and they said they're currently looking for a new supplier of this manifold. The chap assigned the job is on holiday for the next two weeks but they're hoping for an update when he gets back. They said they'll update their website as soon as a new supplier becomes available, but I'll call them again in 2 weeks and see if they know any more.
I didn't realise the one in the ebay link was a Toyo. I did also try calling Toyosport direct this morning but no answer - strange that their Renault exhaust section on the website is completely empty.
It's frustratin enough having to replace due to the split flexi problem, let alone not being able to source a new SS one.
Let me know if you hear anything and I'll do the same mate

This one is the same as the toyosport one

I did spot that one myself. Thought I'd wait to get the slightly cheaper one from Toyosport themselves though.

Hmmm, I must've gotten the last of the k-tec ones then. I ordered it three weeks ago, fitted it yesterday. Nice piece of kit, hope they find another supplier.
I cant seem to find a toyo,or indeed any other.
My flexis have gone and i reasoned i may as well swap the lot,being as though labour cost is the killer.
I desperately need one, can anyone help?

Looks like all of the different ones on ebay are sold out now. The Toyosport one is meant to be back in stock within the next couple of weeks.

Alternately, has anyone tried one of these? Only a little cheaper than a KTec manifold.

I've got to say, I think the Predator one looks sexy.......just me?
Okay...out of stock,every manifold everywhere is out of stock...aaaarrrrrrrggggghhhhhh
Damn, I had nearly persuaded myself to grab one too.....might drop them a message and find out if they have an ETA.
Waiting for a call back myself...if they give me a date i will share it
3 weeks, until they make a batch.
So probably longer.
I brought an original which comes tomorrow, will then take it to a custom shop to "improve" it.
Thanks for the update. I'm not in a rush (despite my exhaust sounding like its full of bees and spoons) so I think I'll try and wait.
Unfortunately im not in a position to wait...just need it done and forget about it for a few years
Just seen this:

I can't bring myself to spend £635 + fitting though, the car's just not worth that!
Just can't get my head around why every different manufacturer had ALL run out of these parts at the same time. Just going to wait and hope the toyo one's come back in stock soon!
