Who did you get the header from? Call them and request a flange.

Why not? I know nothing of that company, did they go under or something? ::shrugs::

Maybe you could use a OEM gasket there.

I know you said no ghetto fab but really, it's not that hard to make one out of gasket material. That is, if it is just two flat surfaces mating together and not an o-ring type. Just take your time and cut it out smooth, using one side of the exhaust pipes for a template.

fujitsubo is a company based in japan. there are only carriers of their products here in the states. i doubt they would have any replacement gaskets.

the only oem gasket that i've seen mentioned are the O rings - they dont work like i've said before. both surfaces are flat. what kind of oem gasket are u referring to?

make your own gasket. there is nothing "ghetto" about it. Its people like you that continue to drive import part prices through the roof becuase in your eyes, unless it cost 10x its value and gets imported from japan, its "ghetto".

If the header was new it should've came with a gasket. maybe you are just too ghetto to buy something new and you got it used. How ghetto..

its a goddamn gasket for cryin out loud..

who said i wanted a gasket from japan? i wanted one that has the right fitment.

if i mentioned that it was a usdm built header would u have brought ur lame *** in here and posted ur lame post? im guessing no - so stfu

all i want is a flat gasket that has the right fitting, ghetto fab in my definition is using tin foil as a gasket, im fully aware of of the gasket fabric at autozone.

Fujitsubo is a low budget provider on Ebay. They sell mufflers, headers, coilovers and other stuff too but it's still off of ebay. You got what you paid for.

I have, and they are not a cheap ebay knock off company.

My header didn't come w/ a gasket either, so i am not running one & I have had no issues.....It's probably not the best, but whatever

LOL!!! hahahahahahahah, last time i checked, Fujitsubo was FAR from an ebay knockoff. Seriously though, if worst comes to worst, just make your own gasket.
