Urgent, Y-pipe gaskets...

My box from Budget was missing the gaskets and I have to leave town for a while tommorow afternoon. What type of gaskets do I need to go buy and how many of them? Thanks.

The gaskets Warpspeed uses are the stock Nissan gaskets. If Budget is the same, you can temporarily reuse your gaskets from your stock y-pipe. If they are no good, you just need one of each from a Dealer.

i personally would not recommend reusing gaskets since two of them are crush ring gaskets. they are made to be used once but you may get lucky. why risk a leak when you can pick them up for around 12 bucks for all three at the dealer.

if you want them from nissan, just ask for the 2 crush ring gaskets on the y pipe and the gasket that goes between the y pipe and catalytic converter for a 00 maxima.
