They don't look too awful bad. They are on ebay for a bit cheaper. That is one gigantic race pipe. The Altima headers and race pipe look very similar to the hotshot headers/racepipe and are going for under $150 shipped. Not sure why the price on these are so much higher. Must be because of the race pipe length.

Well if you look at it. The lengths will not be the same. A good header will create a y-pipe that will loop around to keep the exhaust distance to the collector the same. Take a look at how cattmans are. You will see what I am talking about.

The quality does look under par. The Altima headers look much better. Does any actually have these installed?

Here is the Altima construction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33631

will the altima headers fit the maxima? or just the ehaders and not the y-pipe and you will need to custom fab that part?
