Default Gasket for Nismo S-tuned Exhaust

hi
i just bought used Nismo S-tued Exhaust that comes with Y-pipe, Mid-pipe and muffler. But i need the gaskets (does it really needed? and i don't know how does it works), NISMO OEM gasket are over $70 which is over priced. Where can I get the same sizes of gasket which works the same as NISMO OEM parts
and where can i get them? Anyone?

Thank you

As said any auto parts store should have some in stock and yes you need them unless you like back firing and smelling like exhaust.

Like autozone or advanced auto? And what else do I need for installing nismo s-tuned exhaust? Since I bought them as used I don't exactly know what comes with. So far I got bolts and nuts, gasket(will buy from autoshop), mid-pipe, y-pipe, and muffler. That's pretty much it? How many gaskets should I buy?
Thank you

If you are asking those types of questions your best bet is letting a shop
install it and get the gaskets for you

Hardware kits come with 2.5" QTY:2 for Cats to Y-pipe, 3.0" QTY:1 for Y-pipe to Mid pipe, and O ring QTY: 1.

SO O ring goes for Mid-pipe to Muffler ??
someone said it is hard to find O ring from the auto part shop

Therefore, i can just ignore O ring and just buying another 3.0" gasket for Mid-pipe to muffler?

Never heard of using O rings for catback exhausts... O rings are typically for header-cats....

Basically you need a gasket for connecting every piece of pipe...

My local exhaust shop was able to provide a gasket that worked for me when I needed one for my Nismo exhaust You should call some of your local shops and see what they can do for you.
