The 5VZ Swap Conversion Exhaust Cross-Over Pipe is designed to simplify exhaust routing during a 3.4L engine conversion. Unlike the OEM pipe that collects exhaust on the passenger side, this crossover pipe collects both banks on the driver side, avoiding interference with brake lines, transfer case, and fuel tank. It mounts directly to the OEM 5VZ-FE exhaust manifolds and features a small flex coupler for improved fitment and durability. This design keeps the undercarriage clear of low-hanging pipes, ensuring a cleaner installation and better ground clearance on older Toyota models.
Manifold Styles:
- 1995-2000 (old)
- 2001-2004 (new)
We recommend verifying your manifold by referring to the pictures
Flange:
- Attached is an ideal option for most applications
- Loose recommended for 1979-1985 4×4 Pickup and 4Runner – due to frame difference and collector clearance & models using a manual trans from a 5VZ, 3.4L application (to clear the LH slave cylinder)
Coating:
- Ceramic
- None
This exhaust pipe is constructed from mild steel and is available with or without a ceramic coat. Ceramic coating provides protection against both corrosion and heat. There are other methods of heat and corrosion protection, but the ceramic jacket is the ideal choice.
Notes:
Please note that some 1999-2000 California engines will have the 2001-2004 manifold type. We recommend verifying your manifold by referring to the pictures.
This product is not compatible with JDM Japanese-import exhaust manifolds. JDM engines will require the use of US/Canada-spec exhaust manifolds.
On A/T column-shift models (4×2 RV, 1-Ton, some T100) the shift linkage must be modified for clearance to the collector pipe. For modifications, please contact sales@northwesttoysllc.com.
This product is not C.A.R.B. approved. Since it does not alter the flow or principal function of the exhaust system, it has passed customers' smog/emission tests in California and other states for many years. Recently, some testing CA centers have insisted that the exhaust is routed on the RH side of the vehicle. We strongly advise discussing your conversion plans with your local testing center before beginning a 5VZ engine conversion.
Although the collector flange is placed in a similar location, the 3.4L Crossover pipe will not bolt up to the 3VZ exhaust system. A new downpipe must be built if joining to a 3VZ exhaust system. Many 3VZ exhaust systems were reduced in diameter near the catalytic converter. We recommend no smaller than a 2.25” diameter on any pipe in the exhaust system.
