I worked around it on my 350. Only time I removed it was when I installed my turbo kit.

I was quoted no more than $500, but I'm curious how long it's going to take to install?

you don't need to take off the steering linkage, its just a really cramped install, your shop will charge you $500 due to the pain in the *** factor.

Oh, that's not too bad. I'm wondering if only the people installing these themselves are the ones having the trouble.

I was going to get Stillen Ceramic coated headers installed (not even the LTH), but the shop told me $650 to install them, AND there's a possibility that the O2 sensors could be damaged when they are removed and that they are $425 by themselves!!!
I'm rethinking this mod.

Sensors are expensive because the Z34 has 4 of them. 2 read afr and 2 for emissions. They go for $135ish on courtesy parts nissan.

Hey I have done quite a bit of work for forum members here. If you bring the car to my shop i give forum members a price of 400$ out the door. Which i feel is a GREAT price! Im in wpb, good luck!!

Jnaut, I'm not sure which version of the F.I exhaust you have but how does the header/exhaust combo sound?

^it's LOUD. It sounds awesome when on the gas pedal is pushed to the floor but its definitely LOUD.

Take it from me, I've been in and around that car plenty.
