OBX Headers and Y-Pipe
Has anyone tried the OBX Altima headers and y-pipe?
They're listed on OBX's website and go for around $300 + shipping on eBay.

since cattman does not have 6mt headers i picked a set of these up to replace my stuff after my precat failed. the shop that did the install said it took 6-7 hours and was way way way easier than the same headers on an altima.
they had to modify the y pipe slightly but it all fits up pretty daum well. i only drove it with a blown headgasket, i couldnt resist seeing what it had; it SCREAMS with the headers and a fvvcked up motor lined up against my buddies basic bolt on 06 wrx and went from a 20 roll i put a solid 4 cars on him. cant wait to drive it with a fresh vq35 in it, and the other goodies im installing at the same time.
sounds like a ricer though, no cats, no resinator, stock mufflers :barf: going with a magnaflow setup and hopfully that will change it
i got them brand new for 220 off ebay

Did you end up with a CEL?

Those OBX headers look decently built and the welds look acceptable. Stainless too. Are you all sure the CEL is not from the lack of a cats, O2 sensor voltage not correct etc? I don't know about ya'll but you can't pass state inspection here with a check engine light on. Let alone no cats. If they hear an aftermarket muffler they do a visual check too.

i installed obx headers on my 3L and they were a pain in the ***. one thing i really don't like is the the ypipe section is only 2". i'm going to have the ypipe re done and also nothing lined up right on my car. we had the open the holes for the studs and they were just a pain in the a$$

buy a spacer that screws into you 02 hole you can pick one up at autozone for like 4 bucks reen the center of the spacer out so you 02 senser fits in and screw it back into you 02 housing on exhaust I did it on my spec v and the code cleared and stayed shut off
#24
First the code must be stated, then, it can be taken from there in order to take steps to eliminate the code.
This is what I've been trying to get across, but it doesn't seem to be working.

You went from 3 cats to 1 and the two o2 sensors were at the back of that cat. Did that give you a CEL? Reason I ask is because I have a set of HOT SHOT SE-R headers in my garage but the cat is damaged so Ill have to weld a new cat in place before I install them. However I wont install them if they give me a CEL.

IIRC the code something about the O2 sensors being out of range. Too lazy to search nissanclub.

#29
Chernmax did that and didnt get a CEL. I think most of those Alti guys were running the Hotshot headers without the high flow cat on the y-pipe (Not a 100% sure). I think if you run the catted y-pipe I think it may solve the problem because the O2 sensors are located after the cat.
Some of the 05+ Alti guys were running O2 sims but still got a CEL.

why buy it on ebay when you can get it retail for a little bit more?

run rich. stock mufflers and no resinator on mine, no cats at all either and it sounds like a fricken tin can ricer, i hate it but when you roll off the gas it pops and crackles like an srt4 which makes me beleive its running pig rich
id recomend a tune to get the most out of them but i wouldnt say its needed
