Definitely let us know how you like it, if I don't get a new car then that's on the list of things to do to the Celica
1999 Celica GT
definatly let us know how it is, i was gonna get one but they are quite spendy $300 and im a little short on cash cuz i wrecked my car into a pole goin 45 so gotta fix that
Beautiful....I'm jealous. =]
picked up the 1/2 bolts, 2.5 inches long, all ready to install tomorrow hopefully it goes smoothly
looks good jeff. how much u pay?
installed today, whew, what a pain in the arse..4 hours+ and with a neighbors help. pictures and sounds later
who does your car run with those headers? can you tell me?

If you combine all the time that I have been under my ST trying to get it to fit right it would be about that long. What didn't work? My manifold was rusted to the first cat and the cat was rusted to the down pipe.

the pain was the downpipe bolts, once decided not to come off and get stripped, luckily i have a the bolt out from craftsman. but i didnt have a 1/2 extension. so missing a few sockets and asking neighbors for em and then i had to drill a 1/2" into the downpipe to make the new 1/2" bolts fit. working in a carport, dark, using a flashlight, burning my fingers, cuttin my arms, good times.

:scared: i hope my install on tuesday goes better. im going to try to drop my exhaust as one peice from the head to the cat, then if i need to seperate it i can fiddle with it on the ground where i can get tools to it. i got a corolla stainless 4-2-1 header on ebay for $100 shipped. i'll post up how it feels on the corolla 7afe (fed spec) when im done.

is it just me of does that header omit 2 bolts on the flange or was there nothing there at all?

does that header comes with 2 o2 sensor outlets???....i dunno y but i have 2 o2 sensors...i think mines a ca emission......if it does...ill consider gettin it......
great pics n vids....oh n the valve cover too....

yes it has 2 o2 sensors spots...the seller claims you can cap off the bottom one. but i used my stock sensors. drove around, makes the car louder and quick off the line...does anyone else with a exhaust, when they turn on the a/c at idle that the car shakes a lil.
O.K folks folks wait a minute,I think I missed something here.Tell me what I`m seeing is the truth.We can now get a header for our GT 5SFE !!! 
Are these jewels found easeily on EBAY ?

yes...we now can get headers for 5sfe ...the material used to make the header doesn't look too strong though 
...i have mines for prob a month now and it seems to be okay...i noticed you have to sorta break in the headers or somthing because when i first got the headers on there were jus a slight difference(and yes i've reset my ecu) and now it's pretty good....heres the site for the headers(don't have to get it off ebay...)

looks good lew!
just a tip for you guys who buy and install these.
before you start the car for the first time, wipe down all the header pipes really well, and get all the oils from your hands off of them.
once they heat cycle a few times, theyll turn a nice golden color without getting all crappy looking from all the finger prints.=)

Very very nice Lew, these chrome headers really spruce up your engine bay. It really compliments your "red top".
update on the header, the vroom vroom is gone but not sure if its because the O2 sensor was bad or what, update tomorrow since i put a new one in...the chrome was gone after a week, probably paint it in the future, not a concern at the moment.
wow??!!!!!?!??!....that quick???.....so what would u do next?...powdercoat them??...plz update
i was thinking either chrome or black high temp spray paint..PC'ing costs too much and takes too long
