and... i'm sure most of you have seen these by now, but, i've never seen this asked....

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nissan-200sx-...hZ011QQcategoryZ38786QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem

I know Nicely runs the THS manifold, and says quality of it, is good.... so i figured, for the price, could be worth trying these out etc....

but... main concern being, will they fit?

isn't there a difference between downpipes on S14's and S14a's? meaning....we've no idea? lol

Yeah there is. The elbows are different and the front pipes are different (Euro S14 and S14a). Even with the same elbows and front pipes, there would still be problems due to the S14 and S14a cats being different lengths...

My current advice :wack: would be to buy a proper S15 front pipe. People have fitted such a pick and mix collection of S14 and S14a exhausts, decats and front pipes that its difficult to tell what's what. All I can say is that mine was fitted with an S15 HKS exhaust and front pipe in conjunction with a custom made 315mm decat (templated off the original cat). The S14 elbow fitted straight on.

I have S14 elbow, S15 front-pipe, R32GTR de-cat, S15 cat-back.

A lovely mix of exhaust bits, but it works :D

My advice with Nengun at the mo is only order as a last resort. If the price difference isn't too much, get it elsewhere. Took a month to get my clutch bits...

They are a Shinto and Buddist country, so don't celebrate Christmas... Plus I ordered around the middle of November. They informed me of the dispatch and issued an EMS number about a week before they actually dispatched it. Once it was actually dispatched, it only took four days. Had I known, I would have happily paid the extra ?50 or so to get it from Perfectrun in about a week.

Described as a 1999 onwards 200SX front pipe? I'd have been inclined to check if it was an S14a pipe. If it is, it won't fit with your cat and an S14 elbow...

EDIT: mind you, if its Blitz, its probably an S14 pipe as they didn't do the shortened Euro S14a pipes.

i'm expecting arrival of parts this week, so... all being well, this weekend could be chucking on new bits.

So, we'll know then if they're all correct etc! :)

Ordered an S14 elbow from apex! :) (as well as the locking subframe collars! :))
