Yes, they do have the VQ35. However, I'm not sure if they have the O2 outlets as the 02/03 did. I would not trust OBX with anything, unless it was Stainless Steel. I really doubt it is. Cattman might have them, but headers are NOT cheap by any means.

I have a set of used XS/SSAC headers for the 02-04 Altima, but I'm not sure if they will work for you.

OBX headers FTMFL!!! it sucks... had them on my 4 cyl altima... lots of modifying needed to make it fit in the car it was made for... i can't imagine how much more for a similar car...

yeah just a thought i had read something on the org and thought they may fit i rather wait for the cattman ones to come out.i want my fujita cai,ud pulley.NWP spacers and my headers and thats it for my 6th gen i want to make it a lil quicker and quiet.So far all i have done is my KYBs and progress springs.thanks for the input.

still the same ****ty rear bank design. Those must be old or they never improved them for the alti like they did with the 4th gen max...

yea, I've heard all the horror stories, I have the 06 I4 which doesnt have THAT big of issues with precat and coolant, the 02-04 were the ones with the huge issues with precat

whats the chance of that happening :P hopefully if it does it will happen by the time my warranty ends so they replace my engine!

chances are eh, so so. they dont replace the motor. just the parts that are broken. warranty doesnt even cover machining the head or anything.

with the precat my knowledge is they have swap out the motor since it's cheaper, I might be wrong though

Just remove the pre-cat all together. ;)

Currently there is more testing being done with these Ebay headers. Preliminary indications show that they might be a good buy. Once I hear anything I will let you all know.

But yeah Cattman is a proven winner.
