Hi and welcome!

You can get Pacemaker headers in Australia - have a look on ebay for them.. sometimes you can get them cheap. Otherwise you can get maxim/autoexe ones imported from Japan through Rupewrecht. Pacemakers will generally be cheaper to buy and easier to get your hands on. Maxim/Autoexe headers may be trickier to find and might cost a little bit more.

Bear in mind that if you're thinking about getting headers, you may also need to get some other exhaust work done. With the pacemakers, you will definitely need a new midpipe made up. I'm not sure about the maxim/autoexe ones, someone else might be able to confirm whether they bolt on to the stock exhaust.

Also, don't be afraid to use the search button. There is a whole bunch of useful information in previous threads.

Not sure if OBX are available any more, they're cheap and bolt straight up. Still rocking them 50,000km later despite stories of the welds falling to pieces.

I've got a Mazdaspeed exhaust manifold lying around for sale - they're a great Japanese-made stainless system, and quite rare!
