Header for ka24de

so basically, the flange on my downpipe of my original exhaust was so rusted that it litterally broke off. so instead of getting that welded, and then using a crap log manifold with a restricting downpipe, which is falling apart from rust, i figured it would be easier to buy some headers for her. now i am broke as crap, and i need this fast, as i have no vehicle, so does anyone here have experience with any cheap ebay headers? and i really dont care if it cracks in 6 months or so, because by then, i'll have money to get some DC headers, but i cant come close to affording that right now... so what do you think..?

aight, i think imma order one tomorrow. i was about to shoot my car (yes, i just said that). this piece of **** has been down for going on four months. and its always because of stupid **** like this. or like the ignition coil i bought, which was fried when i got it. or the 3 weeks it took me to find a damn transmission within 200 miles of me. im not asking for a pity party, but i hate this car, almost as much as i love it.

i've had a obx header for some time now with no problems. it's probably the best $200 i've spent on my car.

Hey Cronux isnt that S14 in your sig long gone?

I think you should drive with an open exhaust.

If your looking for a cheap header for the ka24e that will last you at least 6 months your better off getting a bbp which is like 80-90 shipped, instead of a obx which is like almost 200 shipped. BTW your going to have to bend the pipe that attaches to the header and screw it on prior to bolting down the header because they don't fit 100% acurate.
