Alright, so ive spent the past few days searching and reading up on different exhaust setups, and which ones have clearance issues. I have sportlines on my car, amd i love the slammed look. I want to upgrade my exhaust, but want to have the most clearance possible. I know the problem is going to be my Y pipe. from what ive read on here it seems that my best bet is going to be a custom Y made at an exhsust shop. Is this a safe conclusion to come to? does anyone have any recomendations (besides raising my car) for a header/Ypipe combo that wont drag with my sportlines? Ive read that BBK is supposed to have great clearance, as well as ARF? But the two threads i read about each person had the pro kit, not sportlines... Let me know what you think!
I have sportlines, and the Pacesetter headers w/ the ORY. Ground clearance is okay I guess considering how low my car actually sits. If I were you, dont even **** with the pacesetters. Look into those revised stainless steel LPP headers that some sponsor on this forum sells. I put my Pacesetters on just this past Thanksgiving break, and they are already looking like **** and have a pinhole leak at the collector. I kick myself in the a$$ for not going stainless, especially like the ones I just mentioned. BTW, u will have to do motor mounts also. My ORY banged like a ****. If you are wise, be smarter than some of us *cough* and do prothane motor mounts WHILE the headers are out of the way! Just some advise learned the hard way.
