i'm planning on bringing my hatch back to life after a 2 year long retirement.

what is the specs when bolting the oil pan back on? Also, when changing the gasket, do i need anything else besides the gasket?

I've read that I need to apply HondaBond or liquid gasket ontop of the gasket to provide a better seal. Is that correct?

thanks for the help!
