: WTB: Header for NX2000

I'm looking for a header for my NX w/ SR20. I can hear my flex-pipe starting to go, so what better excuse to replace the whole header!


I'm looking for the ebay or SSAC header, or even a used ASP header if the price is right.

One side question; do the B13 and B14 use the same header?

Thanks for looking!

I just ordered a 2.5 ebay header. the tracking number shows it will arrive tomorrow. Here's the ebay link:

Thanks for the link, I was looking at this header: http://cgi.ebay.ca/1995-1999-NISSAN-SENTRA-200SX-SER-2-0-CERAMIC-HEADER-96_W0QQitemZ140370329769QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_ Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item20aeb940a9

I dont care about SS; I like that this header is way cheaper and the secondaries look like they're a lot longer since they continue after the first bend.

that one is a 2 1/4'' outlet. primaries are small and the collecter are small. If you don't care about that, order it! But i can tell you with the 2.5 header, you'll get the best bang for your buck ( on an ebay header that is).

Once it arrives today, I'll let you know how it is.

I wouldn't mind a 2-1/4" outlet if it gives me more low end compared to the 2.5" header.... I got an auto tranny :(

Any word on if they actually do make more low end?

Oh it's autoTRAGIC! lol

I would think it would give you lower end power. smaller primaries on a de and collector and outlet gives it more velocity.

Yeah I know lol

Definetely on the smaller sizes... but if it's a gain of something like 3lbft down low and 2hp up high on the small header vs. 1lbft down low and 7hp up high on the 2.5" header, I might go for the 2.5 incher.

Are the headers between the B13's and B14's the same?

They're the same so you don't have to worry about fitment issues.

macphee, PM sent.

Thanks Optimus, that helps a lot.

One more bump
I'll probably end up buying a header off eBay if I can't get on off here by the end of the week or so.

I bought a header off eBay already, please disregard this thread. As nice as the 24hp from the ASP header would be, I just can't justify it at the moment.

Received the header today.
1.5" primaries that are ~13" long, 1.5" secondaries that are ~11" long, and 2" after the collector. All in all, too small to make any real power.

I have some plans to fab up a new one, I'll basically bump up the secondaries to 1.75", go with dual flex pipes, increasing the secondary length to 20-25".
Then I'll have a merge collector exiting at 2.0" and then bump up to 2.25" immediately, and then as much distance away, a high flow spun aluminum cat.

I will also be getting the 4-2 part of the header ceramic coated.
