Thread: ASP Budget Headers on B13/N14 Chassis

I'll tell you why. It's because these Nissan's aren't made of Legos, they're more like the bastardization Mega Bloks. You get the point.

LOL

I am installing mine as we speak...er...post.
My ssac is off,I was just eating a sammich,and the ASP will be going on.I hope I dont have any of these issues.I will post up how it fits my NX.I dont want to have the crossmember off,or cut it,thats for sure.

I will be attempting a different method next week.

The primary flange that bolts to the head is a little too big as it barely clears the upper radiator hose outlet. I will be grinding down the flange, and slightly twist and shift the header in a clockwise rotation; hopefully, giving just enough clearance.

If it works, you will not have to cut the x-member.

- Thank you for this thread. Not sure how I over looked it, but thanks to ser007 for linking me to it. This is where that extra vibration is coming from.

Is it banging off the sway bar too MR? That's a possability as well.

Yes.

Yeah I had definite vibration where it knocked on the rear engine mount, I ground some of the flange away but still hit sometimes. Fitting solid engine mounts also helped.

Didnt take any pics of that section, and no longer have the car unfortunately.

^I don't believe it hits in the back on my B13, but it does up front. I need to get this taken care of as I can't stand the vibration.

I had the same problem on my B13 with vvl, I took the crooss member out and did the same work, now works just fine, Im glad Im not the only one
