my little bro has a hatch with the motor d15b1 and i want to take the header off there and put it on this d16y8 well i need a new gasket or can i use the same one.... ohh and wil it fit... it looks like it will but not sure dont want to take anything off if it didnt work

 

as they say....using a gasket over is like using a condom over its just not smart. i suggest just goin and buying a new one they arent very expensive

 

okay thats what i figured thanx for the input

 

do u know if the header will fit my motor

 

Unless there is some little detail that i can't think of, it should fit. D-series to D-series. As for the gasket...I put a dc header on my Y8 and re-used the same gasket. I haven't had any problems.

 

are u sure? because if thats true dude im going out right now and changing that **** over ha ha my little bro is on vaction he is going to come back and he is not going to have a header im going to see if he can tell hahahahah

 

it should fit no problem, and if the gasket is in good shape i dont see why you cant use it again, i have used me exhaust manifold gasket probably like 10 times lol dont have a single leak

 

i had a cork one and it just fell apart on my car when i took it off so i just got a new one i dunno if you guys have the cork or a metal one.

It depends on the condition of the gasket.... if it's all mangled and bent out of shape, kind of a no-brainer. But if it looks good and is still relatively pliable, re-use that mo-fro.
I haven't had any issues either.

 

nope it matched up perfect thanx for the help and i had a metal gasket so i just reused it the only trouble is now that my pipe that i put on his car wont match up if only i had 2 more inches of pipe lol well at least when he starts it up when he gets back from vaction he will know hah ahah straight headers on a litttle 10 15 kinda sounds like a biffy lawn motor

if his went onto yours fine, then yours should be the same going over to his. I don't see how two headers that are the same won't interchange.

 

If it's the connection point between the CAT and the Header than there is a chance he made need extra pipe or maybe just pull the exhaust forward a little bit. Even though he swapped with his brother, getting 2 inches of sway between the connection of your CAT and your Header isn't unreasonable. It could happen. He may need to just play with it a little more and pull it forward for it to bolt up properly.

 

for some reason on mine it pushed my exhaust forward at bit o no my tip is out a little more not that bad
