    why would you get one from a 5sfe when you can actually get one for you 3sfe? here is the link. obx headers specifically for the 3sfe. so lucky!

    the only reason i would say to not buy the 3sfe ones is if you get the 5sfe ones for free. dunno bout fitment though. i think i read it might, but don;t quote me on that!

    Does OBX produce an header for 3SGE..? I cannot find one for sale.

    no only for the 3sfe. you can swap the tranny from a 3sfe motor over to your ge and then purchase the headers. the reason being is that the starter on the ge is under the exhaust manifold and the obx headers won't clear the starter on the ge. so people swap transmissions and then buy the headers. hope this helped.

    Yes, thank you sr5punk, but 3SFE has never been imported here. Only 3SGE.

    if you source the right tranny, you can have them. someone might have the correct code for you to search for. sorry!

    correct me if im wrong but dont the 3sfe trannys have longer gears or is that a camry thing...?

    shorter. the ge are longer. that's why i used the FE trans so long on Nemesis. shorter gears are great for drag racing.

    sucks for high ways though i bet. i love my trannys gears, perfect balance between top speed/acceleration imo.
