but thats my problem, i cnt seem to find any headers for a gen 3! does anyone know of where i can find some performance headers for a 1994 v6?? thanks a lot guys!

look on ebay. thats where i got mine. you might have to look for solara headers but they are the same thing.

take them to a shop to be installed and save yourself ALOT of trouble. you need to have the engine lifted to get the rear headers installed.

i had gotten OBX headers and Ypipe from ebay for my 94 and they worked good...minus the small fit ment problem. the y pipe connecting to the front bank was way to short so i had to have an exhaust shop weld on an extension. other then that everything worked out fine.

I wish they had a legal one thaty could pass emissions for the i4 in Cali........

they really dont help much. the only reason to really get them is if your goin FI or full exhaust other then that they are kind of a waste of money IMO. the only reason i got the ones for the V6 was for the Y pipe.

i know bosal makes ceramic ones for the i4, not sure bout the v6. obx makes stainless ones, but i hear they have fitment issues

Yeah, the bosal ones aren't CARB approved, so I'd have to snap em of every other year for emissions...

And the OBX have fitment issues? Cool

Custom piping I heard runs in the thousands (cause I can't do it myself).

AWESOME!

if you cant find any others just go with obx and work them in there. nothin a little elbow grease and practicing your french cant solve. nuckle busting goodness

hey whats up guys i have a 94 camry and about the obx headers from the 97 camry how much would i have to spend if i took the car to a shop and have them put it on? I already have 2.5 inch piping going to the headers but i need better headers for the full exhaust to work at its fullest any ideas?

bigbird · 10-27-2008, 02:59 PM

what engine do you have? it cost me about 300 to get my headers installed and they had to extend the Ypipe on the front bank.

Plbiohazard · 10-27-2008, 03:23 PM

I have a v4 engine wat headers should i use celicas headers or the obx headers from the 97 camry which one would be easier?

bigbird · 10-27-2008, 03:42 PM

you have an I4...not V

. the celica headers will have to be moddified, i have the V6 headers so id say the 97 obx ones would be better if they claim to be for the 97 4cyl 5sfe. they still may have to be modified but the celica headers definatly would have to be.

Venom_5 · 10-27-2008, 07:47 PM

OBX for the V6
Bosal for the I4

pretty much the two best options ... OBX may have fitment issues, but any good exhaust shop can deal with that ... Celica headers for the 4cyl will have to be cut and modified as well, but again an exhaust shop can deal with that (although will probably hate you, lol)
