Fast Intentions Long Tube Headers are here!

Elmo370z · 10-06-2015, 12:23 PM

I've also heard, you can take a jack and lift the drivers side of the motor mount and that make installing easier

Welp its about that time, anyone have suggestions on a easier way to install these long tubes, ill have access to a lift. Just with the test pipes i didnt have to disconnect the steering shaft, i used a impact swivel socket to reach around to loosen the bolt. (6point sockets)

Nm, i found my name, 114. Guess they didn't know my forum name.

The drivers side. How da f word do you get to some of these bolts and apply torque to them. I dont even want to talk about that heat shield lol. Cant wait to finish up the install.

Rusty · 12-11-2015, 08:07 AM

I used a pair of tin snipes and cut up the heat shield to get it out. I removed the drivers front tire and when through the gap between the frame and fender liner to get to some of the nuts. Others I used my calibrated torque meter in my elbow.

No leaks after about 3yrs.

Think about getting up there to drill out a broken stud. I would replace them.

Everything has come out just fine beside one heat shield bolt. Just drivers side is very little wiggle room

Rusty · 12-11-2015, 11:31 PM

I removed the exhaust manifold and cats as one piece. This way, I didn't have to mess with the demon bolts.

Elmo370z · 12-13-2015, 10:30 PM

How to unclip this.on the drivers side.

Rusty · 12-13-2015, 10:57 PM

I slipped a small screw driver into the plug right where you have the arrow.

Yup that's what i did. Good sakes, i don't know how you guy that did the install all by yourself did it. I had someone slip a flathead down to press the clip and it came out. Then the heat shield. Install the long tubes Wednesday. Pictures will follow. Thanks for your help rusty.

Rusty · 12-13-2015, 11:40 PM

Glad to help.

The only problem I had was the fricken heat shield. Trying to take it out once I had it unbolted.
