Default Nismo header/exhaust vs. Greddy exhaust/DCsports header

I need to make a decision on which header and exhaust to get for my 02 Nissan SE-R. My mind is on the NISMO parts, but I also am interested the Greddy exhaust and DCsports header. PLEASE HELP!! :bbb:

DC/Greddy combo would be cheaper and would be a complete system since the DC eliminates teh stock midpipe. The Nismo header is nice(its what I have), but combined with the Nismo exhaust, becomes a little loud/raspy and it still uses the stock midpipe.

If I was getting a new system today, I would get the DC header with the APEX'i WS2. Quiet, yet powerful.

I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE DC SPORT HEADER AND IT IS DESIGNED FOR THE 2004 SE-R. TO INSTALL IT ON THE 02-03 IT MUST BE MODIFIED WHICH I DON'T WANT TO DO. I CHECKED OUT THE APEX'I EXHAUST TOO, IT LOOKS NICE. I ALSO READ THAT THE HOTSHOTS HEADER NEEDS TO BE MODIFIED TOO BECUZ OF THE SECOND O2 SENSOR.

I would really tell you to read some on thevboard.com and b15sentra.net to get some better somparisons and opinions. There aren't but a couple SER owners on the board.

Well, I almost bought an AAI turbo kit first but.....



I had a HotShot before but the ceramic coating started to chip off and it pushed my catback into the rear beam. My Nismo has no interference issues and is stainless to boot. So yeah, I guess you do get what you pay for.
