Any of you guys know what type of gasket to get from the T25 to Downpipe? Isnt it a header gasket from a Chevy 454 or something? I have a very thin metal one right now and its still leaking, small black exhasut streaks on the outer portion. Sounds nasty too, like a hole in the DP! Is there a thicker gasket to use? Can I double up gaskets with some RTV or will that stuff just become dust from the high temps? Thanks gang! :D

If your talking about From the J-pipe(one with the o2 sensor in it) to the down pipe I just used some high temp liquid copper gasket and I never had a problem.

O-ring .. copper gasket.. It all works good :)

Yo ben I'm doing just fine. I'm in the middle of taking out my poped motor. I threw the # 4 rod and it tore two holes in the block. One I can stick my hand in and the other I can fit 4 fingers in ;) it wasant a pretty site. I'm using my original 98 bottom end from the Sentra and I'm going to through the DET head on it. I should be up and running by mid next week if all goes well.

Anyway I'll be around posting as much as I can.

well that sucks...there isnt much that is good when you can stick 4 fingers in ;). head swaps are fun let me tell you :). but i guess welcome to the land of high compression turbos....
