does anyone know what size gaskets I need for these exhausts? is it 3 inch or 2.5 inch?

 

How many do you need? I have 2 new ones left. When I bought my HKS they give you extras.

 

I need all 6? Basically I need however many is required to install the entire exhaust. So I was looking around to buy some. Do you know what size I need?

 

Not sure on the size, let me check.......

 

The width of the whole gasket is 5 inches and the diameter of the whole in the middle is 2 5/8 inches. I'm sure the 2.5 would be fine.

 

ok thanks a lot

 

 

I just got the gaskets today, but when I put them against the exhaust, the gaskets were a bit bigger than the pipes, is that ok?

 

I would imagine that as long as the middle is the right size it would be ok. You could always take the midpipe to the auto parts store and match it up.

 

You could use some of the red permatex to ensure the seal also.

 

should I use that or gasket sealant?

I would use the proper gasket.

If its a 60 mm pipe then you need 60 mm gasket. Can you make a pencil rub of the pipes, take the rubs to the store and have them hook you up with the proper gaskets?

 

What store do you mean? What store would be able to make gaskets for exhuasts?

 

I forgot to tell you, when I measured the inside of the gasket, the hole, the diameter measured 2 5/8. But the overall gasket was a little bigger than the actual pipe. Hmm...confusing haha. I guess ill measure it again tomorrow and see what ill do.

 

Where did you buy the gaskets?? I used red RTV sealant on mine and its been fine for 9 months now.

 

I just installed my hks exhaust today. Apparently, the stock gaskets fit perfectly with the hks exhaust, so I didnt need to buy 6 of them. Anyways, the sound is really nice, no rasp and the tone is pretty deep. I stood like 3 feet away when my friend was revving my engine and my ear drums almost blew, it still kinda hurts haha
