The MPI Automotive FX-579 is a direct-fit extractor set listed to fit the Nissan Navara D40 V6 (VQ40, 2005 onward). It replaces the factory cast manifolds on the petrol V6 D40 with tube-style headers built to bolt straight in.

What does this extractor set cover?

This is a header replacement for the front of the exhaust on the V6 D40 Navara. As a V6 application it covers both cylinder banks, swapping the cast factory manifolds for tubular runners that merge downstream. The listing identifies it as a direct-fit set, which means it's engineered around the standard mounting points and pipework rather than needing custom fabrication. It's listed for the VQ40 petrol V6 D40 from 2005 onward, the engine that sat alongside the better-known diesel in that generation of Navara.

What's an extractor and what does it change?

An extractor bolts to the cylinder head in place of the factory manifold. The cast item pushes exhaust gas through short, uneven passages; an extractor runs tubes of more even length to merge that gas more smoothly, aiming to ease back-pressure out of the heads. It's the front-most and hottest component in the system. On a petrol V6 like the VQ40, fitting extractors is a typical first step for owners after a freer-flowing front end before any further exhaust work.

Will it suit my D40 Navara?

The FX-579 is listed to fit the VQ40 petrol V6 D40 from 2005 onward. The diesel D40s are a different engine entirely and take different parts, so confirm your engine code and exact build with the workshop before ordering this set.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits Navara extractors in-house across the Illawarra. A V6 header swap means working both banks, fitting fresh gaskets and reconnecting the front pipework. The FX-579 is supplied by MPI Automotive at an RRP of $1,057.09; contact us to confirm availability and book the bay.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
