Yea, I got one that doesnt fit. You dont want that one though. The ebay stuff usually gets the job done. Just check out the persons feedback before you go buying.

the ssautocrap elbow (dumppipe) fits fine if you have the manifold to go with it. the o2 bung isn't the corrent thread size for the stock O2. You can either retap it using the plug it comes with ir relocate the O2. Although some have made it fit fine with the stock manifold. it's a hit or miss.

the ones on ebay sold by red dog motorsports, in brea, ca, fit perfectly. the o2 sensor port is tapped for the thicker o2, off a z31 or whatever.

I've heard of the SSAC and Megan ones both breaking after a few thousand miles around the weld between the turbine output flange and the tubular dump pipe. be warned, you get what you pay for.

Dont get the divorced chamber one. The 3 that I have seen all hit the steering column. The greddy style one seems to fit better.

Kazama makes a really nice one with two sizes but it's pretty expensive

I think this is the style one you want if you want the cheap one, just stay away from the divorced chamber ones. You will probably need the bigger style o2 sensor as well, the 87 300zx one.

That peice looks pretty decent........but I'm not sure about the shipping they charge. The elbows are $15 to ship, and the downpipes are $25....from California. I hate ebayers who price gouge on shipping. *Blah*

Nice looking peice tho.
