Wrong 4-2-1 Header !! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #61756 10 posts Started by elastikman
I buy about 2 months stainless 4-2-1 header in ebay.
The auction say Celica 1.8 ST 94-99 7afe...

Only this week, after get all parts... i went to local shop to mount..

Beside the o2 hole sensor in wrong place...
the header dont fit.... frown.gif

Here some pictures...



More!









There is any way to make this fit??



thanks smile.gif
it'll slip right on, once you move the alternator....

it just hinges UP and will be out of the way.

if it still doesnt fit, then i dont know what to say. mine just fell into place, easiest exhaust work i've EVER done!

When we took the eBay header off of Blakout16's 4A (same as 7A) it slid on and off like nothing. Looks like you got the ol' eBay surprise!

There is not diferent 7AFE revisions ??
If the FAR left hole is the only one that doesn't mount directly in I'd cut a half moon and put the bolt in the hole.
i got the same header, it slipped right on for me to the engine. But the down pipe was too short too meet up with the cat. So i had to do some custom stuff.

just in respect to the type of O2 sensor.

usually the pictured header will have the same type of O2 sensor fitting that will be on the item thats shipped, which you need to double check.

yea, thats >>MY>> stock part off a 93 corolla.

thats a fed spec manifold and down pipe.
cali spec has a precat and the manifold/down pipe looks a bit different, as well as there being 2 oxygen sensors.
