has anyone had problems installing the headers? when they were going to put mine on the studs were too long apparently and told me that i need new screws... mine are nismo headers from 350z
i have DC's and i love them. only paid $300 for install, plus they're CARB legal. the design's gotta be pretty good considering the HR motors later got a very similar designed OEM header.

Got the TopSpeed headers a long time ago. Before I added the Megan test pipes, I dyno'd at Stillen with pullies, fly wheel, CAI and Kinetix plenum... at 257.8whp. Not too bad and I had a friend that charged a low price to install the headers way back when I bought them.

These headers are 50 state legal with the CARB exception number stamped on them?

Hmm, now that is cool. I could never tell by the pictures if the CARB number was on the header. The way I understand it is if it is not on the part itself, it wont pass visual. Now, where did you get the headers, and where did you get them installed for $300?!
If you have a VQ35DE go with OEM HR headers and HR HFC or test pipes. I have that setup in my car and can tell you the outlet diameter of the HR is bigger and it is a WAY better design when compared to the DE headers.
I think that i am going to change out my strup headers and berk hfcs for longtubes this spring. Maybe i willl do a quick write up on a header install so drivers can see what all takes place during the install...
