Hi all started to remove my headers pipes on my 95wrx today, as i want to get them ported ,
first off the heat shield bolts are all rusted and seized, anyway managed to get them of ,
its now just the 2 bolts joining the headers to the upipe are seized and rounded off , what the best way to remove these ? cheers

 

Cut them off and renew them.

 

what do you use to cut them off , cheers

 

Angle grinder? Not sure if you will have room to manouver one in though??

Can you not unbolt the up-pipe from the turbo instead and take headers and up-pipe off as one?

 

thats the thing theres not much room , don't think i'll get the grinder in there , when i changed the down pipe i had to cut everybolt of with a hacksaw blade lol, cheers

 

Air saw, die grinder with a hard grinding stone or burning gear if you have them, if not then pure determination with a hacksaw blade and a sharp chisel.

 

Yeap all the above and also a nut splitter

 

I cut mine with a dremel

 

i'll have a go with the die grinder then , cheers for the reply's
