you should be able to reuse your stock gaskets. I did & they worked fine.

call Performance Nissan Parts directly. Most of their gaskets are 50% cheaper than the dealership.

The OEM gaskets look like a sandwich: 2 pieces of metal with some sort of thermal material between. New, the outside ridges are raised. Used, the thermal material is compressed, and the outside ridges are no longer raised.
For about $40/4, I think they are worthwhile.

using the same gaskets for a new exhaust is like wearing dirty underwear, after fitting into a newly purchased, Armani suit

That is a beautiful metaphor.
