Price has yet to be set. We are looking for MAXIMA V6 95-99 .0L for a test fitment and dyno. The car has to be in Boston Region. If you are interested let me know. Nashua. |
looks like the obx ones i saw on ebay once, look good tho, i would test fit but im in NJ, if u coulg give me a loaner car i could leave mine with u guys or something but other wise nah lol
|
OMG. Ive been waiting for this day for a Long Long Time.
WHat Diam. is the Piping? They look so so nice, and construction is excellent looking. What Shop is makein them for us? Thanks for bringing it to the org. mwest |
fn sweet. ditto on the diameter question and i'd let you test but my se-r is not a daily driver.
|
BTW, the innstallation and dyno test is at no cost!
|
oooh...i'm 30 mins south of boston. please pm me and maybe we can work something out!!
|
i'm about 30 mins south of boston also, pm me with all information.
|
Jepht20, enjoi you are the first candidates, as long as you can drive to Nashua, NH or find a place that can do a before and after dyno and install.
Please, PM your stats of your cars, mods, mileage, and last time it was tuned. Nahsua. |
looks pretty sweet.. if I wasn't in jersey i'd be down for testing no problem.. actually, i'd be down for the drive to test anyway.. hopefully fitment and dyno's come out good..
wJ |
this i got to see....
|
done and done...
|
Now, if the installation and dyno are up to your expectation.
Who is interested in ordering one? ;) |
Jepht20, enjoi
you guys both should go if your both have different trannies. btw, you should leave your house now and get it tested & dyno'ed. :D Not only are you takin one for the Team. <maxima.org> Your answering questions, proving points, and makin maxima life a lot happier. Hope u can help open doors, thanks mwest. btw, im in Stl. if i was only 2hours away id leave work right now and get it on! |
I think those are the obx ones they had on e-bay once. Its good that we can use any y-pipe we want and those suckers will never rust.
|
if still need someone, located in Boston Area. 1996 5spd all stock let me know
|
i heard headers to little to nothing for a max. i hope i'm wrong but hasn't org members ported and polished the stock ones and saw little to no increase in HP? i though i remember someone taking 3 lbs of metal out of each tube and then polishing it and got only 8 hp at the wheels for an increase? anyone else remember this. btw if they work and do help a signifigant amount you can count be in for a set. for 500 it better do alot.
|
weren't there stillen ones that were like $1k that didn't show too much improvement in the dyno? or was this only talk...anyone remember?
|
He said less than $499, so that could be $300 or $498.99... We need a more solid price and of course dyno plots (which i understand you are in the process, thumbs up for that one because dynos sell)... That being said, if it shows a significant increase in power and price is right, i'd definately be down for a set...
LEMAR |
i remember someone ported and polished the headers and showed HUGE PICS OF IT on the org and it showed very very little improvment
|
I would not judge those headers till we post before and after dyno.
From my Experience with my CLS. I gained at least 25 WHP from SS headers. If on the maxima they gain 15 WHP... than that is 15 WHP! no BS! |
You won't see 15whp from those headers. They are shorty headers, and don't have the downpipe part, which is the major power comes from becuase that's where the precats are. Shorty headers will give the engine a more exotic sound, but probubly only ~5hp on n/a cars, and a little more for boosted cars. I hope I'm wrong though, but even the LT1/LS1 Camaro engines don't see big gains from shorty headers.
|
JFYI, This is NOT OBX headers, Those are Stone Racing Headers and are custom ordered from UK.
Ah... the downpipe is coming too, it will be sold sperately. test fit, dynoed too;) The competition of the y-pipe has to watch out for this baby! Those who will test-fit and dyno has to do an independent review and post here for you guys. The internal diameter of pipes of the primaries of the headers are 1 5/8". You will be STONED! Nashua. |
I'm in Acton, about 20 mins west of boston and 40 mins south of Nahsua. If you need me. 96 GLE stock 104k miles.

Nashua A shorty header making ~5whp that's probubly peakish in power delivery that's not very usable for ~$400-500 is no competition for any performance part for the Max, and just is not worth it IMHO. I hope i'm wrong about the power and price, although I don't think I will be about the power. I also think you should make a cheaper ceremic coating option for us who don't care about SS. But if the header doesn't make at least 11whp/tq for around $300, it's not worth it. Also keep in mind header installs on this car is going to be a B!TCH, and labor will most likely run you more then the headers themselves. |
i will stoned? you smoking me up for free?
do you have the headers in stock yet? how long untill you do? what do you expect the headers to do for our maxs? in terms of sound and performace. where in nashua are you located? are you a tuning shop? private buisness? what makes your different from the Ebay headers? peace |
Actually that SSautochrome guy is a reseller of Stone Montain Racing producst. He sold us the OBX catbacks.:calder:
|
Same exact pictures as the Ebay ones, interesting. I guess we will all have to wait and see. But like someone else said, shorty headers dont give much power...

Due to the huge demand and To be fair for all, I will select 2 maximas, One Auto and 5-speed. It is okay, to have them installed and tested at 2 independent shops. Also, one requirment the headers has to be installed and tested the same week they are delivered.
The headers are in stock, should be installed and tested and dynoed next week. Nashua. Here are some more pictuers: http://home.comcast.net/~beiruty/Pho...maheaders3.JPG http://home.comcast.net/~beiruty/Pho...maheaders4.JPG http://home.comcast.net/~beiruty/Pho...maheaders5.JPG |
I am in Worcester and have a 5 speed if you don't have one yet. I am also on vacation next week :D. If you need me hit me with a PM/E-mail with details.
|
1996 5 speed IN BOSTON ready to be dyno'd if you need my car, please let me know!
|
I don't think we'll see much gains with headers seeing that others have done it. However, I won't judge until I see the plots. It is MANDATORY that the dyno tests reflect a true before and after with no other mods added/removed. Most important and is that the runs must be made on the same machine and under similar conditions. Running on different machines should be null and void.

if they make 10+WHP I'll buy a set.
|
yeah i dont see how those will add that much power especially if its going to the stock y pipe, and even with the y pipe i dont see how much hp would be free'd up but i guess dyno's will proove it
|
It is also my understanding that headers are hard to install on the Maxima's FWD engine. Unlike RWD V8's, the VQ's headers are hard to get to and it takes a painstakingly long amount of time, and could take ~10-12 hours of labor, which would put the price of these headers over a grand, and all for 10fwhp? I don't think so.
|
If Moodyj is not interest, ChristheNite you are next on the list.
Dave B, the before dyno, installation, and after dyno will be the same day on the same dynojet (withn 2hrs). Nashua. |

Nashua...just to help you out...the maxima ECU needs to adapt to new mods before full gains are realized.
so it would probably be in your best interest to dyno with stock headers, swap headers, drive around for an hour or so, then dyno again with your own headers. |
Dev, good advice! We will have a spin or a two after we install the headers and reset the ECU.
On our CLS,we do disconnect the battery to reset the ECU after the install. It greatly helps. Nashua. |
make sure u reset the ecu from the ecu itself too, then drive it so it re-learns things, i think thats the best thing to do.... anyone with me on that?
|
What is the fuse to remove to reset the ECU?
Thanks. |
