350z '06 Headers.
Yo guys,
I am thinking of replacing the headers of my '06 Z Uk model coz they I think they are in bad condition, I'm hearing some noises coming from there, they might be the heat shields tho.. but any ways I might as well replace with stainless steel performance headers.
I was wondering if anyone has the procedure of replacing the headers because my mechanic is talking about dismantling suspension and what not just to get to the headers and I thought I should ask for some information before I spend loads of labour to change the headers.
Anyone got a step by step easy to understand procedure so I can have an idea of the install time and forward it to mechanic
Appreciate any information anyone can provide
Cheers all, peace out

This is how it sounds like.
Seems like a ratting heat shield. I have no idea how to diagnose these noises. Does anyone have a procedure how I should tackle this ? Because I don't know how to find from where it is coming from. I assume its related to exhaust because the noise isn't continuous but does it at different rpm's. I was blaming the headers because its the only thing that I have oem stock. I'm using Motordyne TDX v2 exhaust and the Motordyne ART pipes instead of the cats.
Any ideas ?

my bet is the drivers side heat shield is too close to the art pipe. crawl under there and see how much room you have, i had to bend mine with a pry bar to give it room. another thing to check it to see if it is hitting on the m brace, mine was and all i did was wedge a piece of exhaust hanger rubber between the piping and brace
