Believe it is the hks elbow. They do not make these anymore and are a rare find.

It looks like the greddy elbow that has had piping welded onto it and smoothed. Check the shape at the beginning of the TB compared to the Greddy. There's always the stock elbow too.

Dont think they have any other types on the market right now besides the greddy. Unless you find one of those hks but a guy here has been looking for one now for awhile.

Yes, that is the HKS elbow. Good luck finding one... even if you do, expect to pay a ridiculous amount due to the "rare" factor.

i saw a greddy elbow with the option of an adapter on ebay to fit the stock IC piping. It's $65 for the adapter and $109 for the elbow. The listing is still up I just checked.

... or you could just make your own with some scrap tubing and save $50

I believe the HKS v-mount comes with the elbow pictured at the start of this thread, though it would be an expensive way to get one.

Actually there is a new HKS elbow, but it is made only for the vmount. It is not the same design though. it's actually more like the greddy unit, but shorter. It also has NO logo on it.

I've been looking for a long time and no luck. https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/throttle-body-elbow-704901/ , https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...&highlight=hks
If that the car I think it is in your post, I Know that guy. He will not sell it. I've seen the elbow in person and it is great.
Good luck with your search, and if you find two let me know.
