arrrgh!! i have just taken all the bits you need to the tip over xmas!!!!!!

you need these which are manifolds (ones in pic are aftermarket) and down pipes (pics are decats) and mid section which could be an h pipe or cross pipe. depending on manufacturer

What running issues????

Who told you its all down to the exhaust?? A fully skilled person who has done a thorough examination of your car and checked every other component that could cause poor running???

You need headers???

Has your car got stock Nissan headers or aftermarket headers fitted???

Assuming they are cracked do you want to replace them with stock manifolds or more tubular headers.

Have you already got proper decat pipes fitted??? Or stock pipes??

Prices....

New tubular headers. £100 to £120

s/h stock NA maniflolds cheap

New S Steel decat pipes £140 s/h around £100

S Steel exhaust new... around £350 to £400

Second hand??? Join the queue ... there are already 2 wanted adverts at the moment.

well i can barely afford to stick fuel in it atm so i cant really become a paid up member - iv just got myself a mortgage im lucky to be allowed to keep the Z full stop!! lol!!

 

shall i just get standard manifolds?

fitting issues? ffs! nothings simple is it lol!

 

well basically

 

Right ebay header all sound the business when they state they are a perfect fitment for RHD (right hand drive) models.

 

this is a LIE! they will fit but need two modifications. As they are a copy of the US market stillen headers they are duplicated even into the fitment of the lambda sensor locations.

no matter what the advert says the drivers side lambda sensor must be moved to stop the sensor fouling the steering column! i did this by relocating the lambda sensor into the decat pipe so it was facing inwards towards the baulkhead underneath the joint of the header/down pipe bracket.

 

secondly the steering colum moves in an eccentric path causing it to hit the manifold. All the pipe needs is some gentle tapping with a soft face mallet to dink the pipe slightly or if you know of a good welders they could modify the pipe by cutting it at two locations and twisting them enough to miss the said column.

right i have just been out to the garage and it may be your lucky day! i have found my stock headers (thought they were in the box with the other stuff that went to the tip) but only the headers the rest of the exhaust is gone!

 

 

make me an offer but remember they are heavy! so arrange your own pickup or i could get them weighed up and let you know the cost!

Even better, if you have Hellraisers headers and he and I can meet up this week, I'll send the lot strapped together so it saves you postage.
