Prob much and much, both good pipes, and that's a good price.
The ZZR1100 love a good pipe and a jet kit, really wakes them up, and while ur at, a good air cleaner.

I had a D3 some time ago, and made good gains with the pipe, jet kit and cleaner.
One of the best gains is weight... and thats a good thing on a bike that weighs 2 ton :) :)

If the total cost is over $1000 - that includes freight - you will get stung with duties ;) Have you tried any of the wreckers here in Australia 8) Just a thought.

The stock headers will not flow as good as an aftermarket system. Why waste money on slip on that will do pretty much nothing if you really want a full system. As the ZZR is now getting on a bit you may not have a big selection to choose from either, you may have to just get what you can.
