    fujitsubo FGK header on LHD 1.8 NA

    Quite a lurker on this forum but not a very good media input participant. Sorry

    Anyway I have a LHD NA (1994) 1.8 MX5 (Miata) and I have a possibility to get my hands on a Fujitsubo 1.8 header (manifold).

    I also have PS and ABS.

    Could anybody confirm that this header will fit? Has somebody already installed one, did it take some "massaging"?

    Cheers

    ABS is on the passX side, so not sure how that would interfere with the header, as for the PS not sure but also doubt it would be a concern.

    Would be slightly worried about the steering column if the header comes from an RHD car. Having said that I have bought and RHD NA header to fit my LHD NB, so...

    From my googling it seems like people are running them here in the U.S. with no issue. Steering column is the only thing I remember people having issues with on a particular JDM header. I can't even remember which header that was now, maybe the Cusco powerball?

    hey, thanks for answering. I'm trying to contact a couple people who have installed this header on their lhd 1.8 NA, but no answer yet. I wouldn't want to diminish the performance by "taping in" one of the runners. Factory document says:

    Standard FUJITSUBO

    Maximum output
    97 kw (131.9 ps) / 6740 rpm 98 kw (133.3 ps) / 6640 rpm
    Muffler Weight 6.4 kg
