Difference Between Old/New NISMO Headers
I believe I've found the difference between the Old NISMO Headers that caused the rubbing vs the modified NISMO Headers.
Can you tell the difference?

The old headers had fitment problems, as I'm sure a few members can attest to. The new ones are supposed to fit without rubbing on anything.

I went thru four "new" headers--none fit. I went to a machine shop and they re-worked to fit properly.

Man, Fujitsubo's headers' craftsmanship is so much better than Nismo's.

Well, this is NISMO USA ala B&B. NISMO Japan is another story
I wouldn't be surprised if Fujitsubo makes headers for NISMO Japan.
