A liiittttllle bit of news from Hotshot

Just called Hotshot and spoke with a tech, sounded like the head guy. He stated the Altima V6 header will not fit the 2004 Maxima, totally different body style and setup(didn't get into too much detail). He emphasized it won't fit.

He did state there are some slight but necessary changes to the header design to make it fit and that the header will be coming soon. He stated our best bet is to keep checking the website for updates. As soon as something develops he will post it on the website. He didn't give even an approx. timeframe.

The Altima guys have been going back and forth with Hotshot about headers. Everyone said they keep telling them stuff and it doesnt happen. I guess we jus have to wait it out.

Yeah, and I saw that thread, but we haven't heard from this dude since this forum. Quit frankly, do we know if he got the the header completely fitted? Is the car running. I can only go by what Hotshot says.

He and his friend modded the flange where the rear header and downpipe connect and shrotened the y-pipe, nothing to the headers themselves.


Hotshot's design is completely different

How so? So did they just change were the exhaust bolts up? I assume it doesnt line up perfectly but I figured there would be more problems then that.
