Well, we got underway tonight a spent an hour and a half getting everything in place for tomorrow morning. Both O2 sensors and the AF sensors came loose very easily which was one of my major concerns. . We've got everything in place to move the control arms and loosen the subframe in the morning. So far everything's gone better than expected. If anyone has any tips from this point on, I'm all ears (eyes).



EDIT: Videos in post 17 and 35.

 

Sounds like its going well, post some vids after install

 

Oh, I'll have many vids!

 

Sounds good so far. Hopefully you won't run into problems installing the thing.

 

I'm jealous. Can't wait to get headers someday

 

how long was the wait for ur ppe? im tryna get a set reight now

 

Welcome to the after market Headers club lolz

 

nice, i'll be doing mine myself as well. glad you got yours out. im still dreading dropping the subframe but make sure you make marks before dropping it, also mark the steering rack. im sure i'll still have to get an alignment afterwards.



are you doublling up on your header manifold gaskets like i see how some people on here do?

 

I <3 my PPE's

 

I ordered them on Christmas Day and it was late January before I received them.

 

We've already marked a removed the steering rack. And yeah we'll be doing the alignment directly afterwards today. We're doing this at a Nissan dealership, so we have access to everything which really helps. I was REALLY shocked to see the sensors come out so easy. I drove the car all day yesterday and those cats were HOT when we got it up on the lift. After an hour or so on the lift we decided to just check them out, and viola, turned over. Big relief there. Car has just shy of 17k miles.

 

Coming along. Headers are on, but getting the nuts on the bolts is a PIA. I figure we have about 3 hours in it right now.

 

Awesome, can't wait for the full recap on the install. My PPE headers should be here the end of next week, and I'll most likely be doing the install with a family friend next weekend into the week. Best of luck through the rest of it!

 

Awesome! Can't wait to see your vids!

 

Exciting... Ive had headers on mine since 09. There fantastic... I don't care what brand they are. Welcome to the headers club
