Default throttle body gasket question

i need to buy a new throttle body gasket. the one that goes between the throttle body and intake manifold.

which other model cars could work or do i have to stick with just a honda civic 92?

i have an intake manifold for the d16 non vtec sohc and throttle body.

i was curious if maybe a B series or any other series gasket would fit too?

why would you want a different gasket? don't want as good of a seal? just got one for a 92-95 ex/si (d16z6)

or be cheap like me and make your own with some gasket maker and materials handy

cool. i have never heard of that.

im actually looking for one of those plastic one. but they only make it for B series and not D series. i was curious if the B series would work for my setup.

i current have the gasket for the 91 throttle body and intake manifold. i recently upgraded to the skunk2 intake manifold and the blox throttle body. so the gasket i have now wont work. so i dont know if any other gaskets would work.

i really would like one of the plastic gasket's instead of the paper ones.

make your own - if you have to use a b series I'd still throw some gasket maker or blue rv (silicone) at least around it....

IMO those don't do anything, but anyway make sure your bolts will reach.

Friend got something like that and it would not work with factory bolts.
