NZeder Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 The Nissan merge collectors look much nicer to me, swr ones look like any regular cone from an exhaust shop, just my opinion and I have no idea with all this stuff I'd keep trying with Nissan it is Christmas too, so everyone is in slow mode. maybe the standard cheap SWR items but not the tuned length items here is a pic of the good SWR items (photo linked from Adam's Brown Hornet thread) Quote
benny Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 maybe the standard cheap SWR items but not the tuned length items here is a pic of the good SWR items (photo linked from Adam's Brown Hornet thread) yes they are pretty but also 3-4 times the price!! keep in mind that zeds are a poor mans sportscar!!

NZeder Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 yes they are pretty but also 3-4 times the price!! keep in mind that zeds are a poor mans sportscar!! well that might be the case in Australia but they are getting harder and harder to find good ones now so the price is climbing also the cost is not that high if building a L6 correctly. A simple rebuild sure you don't need any of these headers and the ones that are one ebay that look like this are more than up to that task and will give a good weight saving and improved sound over the stock cast item.

peter mc Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 the SW pipe is the best pipe under $ 1000 any wear in the world , they are better than any of of your American pipes and make more power than all the pipes iv try ed .the only pipes that are better are with proper burns collectors and they cost more like 3000 dollars to make Quote
Riceburner Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 I should clarified, the secondaries and merge looks a little rough IMO... But, the dyno results say everything when it come to headers. These are proven to work I thought they were $1660? and thats just mild steel on top of that you have ceramic coating at $300 approx, Thats where the Nismo headers become very attractive if you have the patience, you'll need it!

peter mc Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 they were but they are about 800 now Quote
Riceburner Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 At $800 a set it's a different story. If you could get a group discount then it's no contest, go SWM. And I thought Nissan Aus were hard to deal with.... Quote
Agno Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 Adam (Brown Hornet) told me ceramic coating was an additional $350 if anyone was interested in going down that route. Quote
peter mc Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 i will ask Stu tomorrow for a good price for you guys Quote
luvemfast Posted December 21, 2011 Author Posted December 21, 2011 Adam (Brown Hornet) told me ceramic coating was an additional $350 if anyone was interested in going down that route. I reckon I can get them done for $250 each for those who're interested. Quote
d3c0y Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 I reckon we should get them chromed too! That looks super trick, or HPC coated that sort of looks like chrome. Used to be all the rage what happened to them? Quote
luvemfast Posted January 16, 2012 Author Posted January 16, 2012 Just an update from our friends in Tennessee Simon, We are still planning on having these made. It's a difficult task regardless. I will keep you posted with an estimated availability as soon as we have something firm. Luckily I'm in no rush. i will ask Stu tomorrow for a good price for you guys How did you go with SWR, Peter?
