Installation Headache of MSA Headers on '87

Hey everyone - has anyone ever had or heard of someone having problems with the fitment of the MSA headers on a z31?

Mine is an '87 non-turbo and the angles of the new headers are just clearly wrong.

MSA is researching via pictures if the issue is with the car or the headers themselves - baffles me since the original headers were just taken off the car and fit just fine

Anyway, hoping it's a case of the pipes they shipped out being made incorrectly. Anyone have similar problems?

Thanks!
Tyler

Hey - final update here. The PaceSetter headers are fully installed. They look and sound amazing. You can really see them well with the hood popped. I am very happy with them!

I am going back to Motorsport with this information. Hoping they pick a new manufacturer.

I'll post some pics later today.

I just realized I missed a lot of the story in between the first post and last post. I was having conversations on other forums but wanted to provide a final update on this forum.

Long story short - MSA headers don't fit and were returned. PaceSetters fit!
