Are the a direct fit or do they need altering? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shunter Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 No, And looking at the pic of the O/S manifold, the O2 sensor mount is in the wrong place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedemon Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 Cheers, what about these? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1990-1996-300ZX-Header-Z32-Non-Turbo-NA-90-96-Manifolds_W0QQitemZ250133259364QQihZ015QQcategoryZ38786QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bantambunny Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Well without spoiling too much of a secret i took jim's for a test drive this week and i've never heard a zed sound like a tvr sagaris before. My god that exhaust system sounded good :D Headers/tubular manifolds do make a big old difference in the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedemon Posted June 23, 2007 Author Share Posted June 23, 2007 I was more after the bhp increase to the sound, was there a noticable difference in power or just sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmarco Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I was more after the bhp increase to the sound, was there a noticable difference in power or just sound? Lots of posts on this subject. Headers are supposed to be one of the best N/A mods for horsepower increase. I'd talk to Smithy first to see if he has any of the ones he had built by Leon left over.

Already asked mate and he is out of stock and to get anymore 10 needs to be ordered :( Shunter how hard was it to get the o2 sensor mount moved? are they easy enough to fit?

znut Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 No, And looking at the pic of the O/S manifold, the O2 sensor mount is in the wrong place! look at it close, think it might be the same side but mirror photo iff that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bantambunny Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 You thinking of getting an NA then Nick? Not just thinking about it buddy, already test driven it, and agreed to buy :) Just got to find the money now lol Ebay tonight methinks!!! :headvswal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Pete. Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 ALL the Ebay headers are for LHD cars. Never mind what the seller says. Hes only a bloke in an office who has NEVER seen a 300ZX in his life! The o2 sensor will not fit on a RHD car cos the column is in the way. It needs to be re located as said by Shunter at al before.

baby ice dog Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hmm, I'd be interested in headers too, if they make so much of a difference to performance and aren't a major hassle to fit. Those Ebay ones are *alot* cheaper than I was expecting these things to be too! I've got a SWB NA - does the SWB take the same as the LWB?

Shunter Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Rear pipes are different between the two! Those cheap ebay ones, are cheap! Heard a few stories about the pipes separating from the mount to the head, because the welds are not, 'sufficient' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baby ice dog Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Heh, I figured cheap would mean *cheap* in this case :D But originally I thought headers + fitting would be >£1k, and that seems to be WAY off. Sorry to be dense, but when you say the rear pipes are different, you just mean the rear pipes of the exhaust, right? Rather than the fitting from the header to the front of the exhaust? I've already "dealt" with the rest of the exhaust, which is why I thought to worry about SWB differences :P Thanks for the reply, by the way :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedemon Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 Also foun out the Ebay ones have different length pipes which would alter performance but I have something else planned now ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
