Headers or no headers?
Headers or no headers?
I called Stillen today and asked them if they were coming out with headers for the 2000-2002 Maxima's and the guy said no. WTF; what do they mean no. Stillen needs to get their act together. Since i've owned a Maxima they have given me different stories everytime. The guy told me the same thing that he had told me 10 months ago, "No sir no headers will be made since the Maxima's hp and tq gain is so little. It's just not cost effective." Now he did say that Stillen was supposed to make a y-pipe very shortly for the 2k2. So I guess we'll just have to wait and see whose sales rep is lying and who's is telling the truth. For all our sakes I hope that mine his lying and that the headers really do come out and do yeild at least 6hp or more at the wheels.

It wouldn't surprise me if Stillen doesn't make headers for the 2K2 Maxima. To the best of my knowledge, they have never made headers for any generation of Maxima.
On the other hand, Stillen has been making Y-pipes for the Maxima for some time. So it's reasonable to assume that they'll make a Y-pipe for the 2K2.

But, on a serious note I will race you although you'll probably blow my doors off. You'll have to wait though because i'm stationed in Korea right now and will either be returning in October or December depending on wether I reenlist to stay or not. So until then keep modding your car because you're going to need it when you race 1BADMAX.

Man..October...December!? That's soo far away...bro.. by then I will have added a 5-speed implant, headers, and possibly a turbocharger..on top of all the crap I have now...against your stock 2k1 automagic
..No wonder I don't see you around.. you still live in Winter park right? Lake Lily is a good place to light it up
My school (orangewood) is like 5 minutes away from there..near the JCC.

I have an autotragic and have been askin around for shops that have any experience w/ this but since I live down south the answer Im given the most is"you can trade your car in for a standard".fill me in. I imagine this will cost upwards to 3 grand but to me it would be worth it.

maybe if your close to stock i'd trade it in. The only reason i'm converting is becuase i've already got so many mods.
You work at a skatepark...Nice...

Yes my parents and my car for now are in Winter Park off 426/Aloma Ave. going towards the East/West or Greenway; whatever it is. In fact if you ever see a black 2k1 Maxima with the front liscence plate saying 1BADMAX then that's my car and my Dad should be driving. He only drives it once a week just to keep the engine in good shape. When I get back i'm going to get y-pipe, UD pulley, frankencar intake, maybe the VB mod and some suspension mods which you can help me put on...lol. By the way I would still like to race you even if you get the turbo and 5spd. Just to see how bad I would lose. I'm sure we would both get a good laugh at how bad you'll smoke me.:lauh:

Sounds good..
supposedly Dead at stillen told a few .org people that headers were currently being developed. why would you lie about it either way? still stillen isnt making headers why would you say yes? no one can buy what you dont have. if stillen is making headers, why would you say no and ruin a potential sale? it doesnt make sense.
