Default VG30E headers?

Is there any other headers for my VG30E besides the pacesetter ones? I'm thinking about doing the headers as the first mod to my 86 300zx... If anyones got experience on n/a z31s I'd love to hear some advice.

Intake, exhaust and headers is always a good place to start, but in all honesty...if its in good condition, sell it and get a turbo...then you'll need less mods and have a much more fun car.

I wish I could... but buying a new car is more than I wanna pay, I could always drop a VG30ET into it later if I wanted too right? Then I can just swap the headers exhaust and intake to that.

honestly, don't waste your time doing an n/a vg30, the design of the engine can only flow something like 215 hp n/a, so I would just save your money and get either a turbo kit for your car, or a full vg30et engine. Headers wont carry over to a turbo engine because the turbo engine needs it's own exhaust manifolds.

EDIT: Also, exhaust won't be able to be put on without some modification. Since the turbo hooks up to the downpipe. so basically you are spending money on headers and an exhaust you won't be able to use if you go turbo down the road
