6G Celicas Forums

I'm patiently searching for a header to fit my 2l celica. It has to fit a 3sfe. Rare as hens teeth i presume, i've been looking for a week and no luck. Anyone know where they can be sourced?

any one for a 5sfe should work too.

Will work. I highly suggest you stay away from SSautocrap though. I did the test fitting and modifications for them and then ended up having to replace 75% of the piping [from downpipe to cat] about 3 months later due to inferior [too thin] materials.
Plus if it matters to you - they screwed me out of my end of the deal which was a production header. If you have any problems they will not answer their phones or call you back.
Fcuk SSautochrome.

edit: sorry, that's for a US 2.2l GT 5sfe, not a 3sge

Looks good. Doesn't include b-pipe and is only a 4 to 1 but should get some gains from removing the cat and $hitty/heavy stock piping. If you already have a catback exhaust you will still need to have the b-pipe made to have a full exhaust. Highflow cat would help too. Price is about what it cost me to get my latest header setup completed too.

i was advised that a 5sfe won't fit.

the 3sge headers will work fine...same manifolds, and such....i think fujitsubo makes one for the 3sge..

I have one for sale too. It's for a 3rd gen 3sge. Awsome equal length design and looks great. Too bad it doesn't bolt to the 5sfe or 3sfe heads. You need a 2nd gen 3sge manifold for that. I wish someone would have told me that before I bought this one. It would make a nice upgrade for a 3rd gen 3sgte for use as an up-pipe.

Explain? I'm interested to know the differences. Did 3rd gen 3s-ge get the same little change that the 3rd gen 3s-gte manifold got - the two bolts on the far right [or is it far left?] are directly in line up to bottom? If that's all it can easily be modified. I would be willing to do it for someone for free if they sent it to me and paid for shipping both ways. And WTF is an up-pipe?

strange.....i bolted up my friends 3sge exhaust mani- from a third gen, right up to my 3sfe...hmmm, there are different 3sfe's out there so that might be a issue as well

We are talking exhaust manifolds. IDK about the intake manifolds.

That's what I thought. That it was an easy mod. I'm no stranger to making custom stuff for the car. I usually have to do that because I can't afford name brand things. It looks like it's just bigger. It's the same lay-out and when you see a picture of it it looks the same. And when you hold it up to the car it looks like it would fit, until you get close. There is more distance between each exhaust port, it's over-all over an inch longer. If you want to try it, you're welcome to buy it from me. Like I said in Buying/Selling thread, I'll exsept any offer higher than what it's worth as scrap metal. It might as well go to some good use for someone.


I doubt that. I think you may have your figures a little messed up there. I'm not saying you're lieing, I'm just saying that you are miss-informed. If the exhaust manifold is wider, it makes sence that the intake manifold would be wider too. Otherwise it wouldn't be as effective of an upgrade in engine design. I'll have to check to be sure though.

No thanks I was just offering to help whoever ended up with this out. I like custom fabricating stuff like this. Plus I already have a header.
I've never heard of any headers for s series tat were 1 wider with diff spacing for exhaust ports. Not that i've seen/heard of everything but are you sure this is for 3s and not some other motor entirely? That would require major changes to the engine but IDK.

hahahaha, oops i put intake mani on my last post, didnt mena that...hmm, but bulldog, im telling you, i personally fitted a 3sge exhaust mani onto my 3sfe, and it fit fine........and widths, inno, hope my last post didnt confuse anyone....

Exhaust manifolds from 5S-FE to 1st-2nd gen 3S-GTE we know work. We know 3rd-4th gen 3S-GTE don't. 3S-GE IDK but should. The Beams may be totally different. IDK. I have several exhaust manifolds in my garage for 5S, 3S-GTE but no 3S-GE.

WTF is an up-pipe for a turbo car?
