So the gasket from Amazon came in, the same one you linked to. I found a small ring gasket inside when I disconnected the midpipe>muffler that I THINK was responsible for the rattling I was hearing, and I don't even think it was doing anything as far as a gasket's job goes. Previously the flanges (is that what you call the lips at the end the pipes?) were touching. Below is how the new gasket looks installed, seems sealed enough for now til the TRD hardware kit to arrive, which I'll be picking up on Tuesday. Last edited by Sundae; 01-08-2017 at 10:27 PM. |

It won't show up on their local system, they have to order it from dealer daily website. That is how my local dealer ordered my hardware kit.

I went through this trouble too and the donut gasket is no help. Itll seal for the time being but itll leak soon enough.
But please show us this "eristic" gasket!! |

I'll tell the story, since the subject was brought up... On Wednesday, I called the dealership and they seemed to understand what I was saying. I was told to come in and order physically (this is some dealership rule or something that you need to order parts in person). I arrive, and it seems there was a huge communication breakdown; he thought I wanted the gasket from the cat to the midpipe, even though I was very clear. I showed him the part number and the parts for the hardware kit on my phone, and he couldn't find it in the system. He asked me to call tomorrow so he could call their warehouse, or something, since I was there after the warehouse's hours. I call and remind him Thursday, he says he'll call back in 10 minutes. Turns out that yes, the part number is valid and the hardware kit does exist! For whatever reason, it was removed from his system, and somebody from the warehouse needed to manually re-add it. He had it done, and I was able to get to the dealership again to put in the order. Total come to about $24.25. It should be there on Tuesday, and I'll come back with any updates then. |

Thank you for this. Looks like the gasket is just a thick flat gasket. Can you measure the thickness prior to install? Im thinking of getting another donut gasket and cutting it to the thickness and call it a day. Lol

Can do! I haven't even installed it yet because it's been raining pretty consistently here. Now, of all times, Los Angeles?

Anyway, sorry for the late reply. The Amazon gasket has been working without issue so I have been taking my time. I HAVE put the TRD gasket in, but... it just... seems weird. The bolts were weird too... I can elaborate when I'm not so sleepy. Anyway, here's a pic of gasket the size: And you can find more pictures of whatever I took in the album below: Album: http://imgur.com/a/yu1kc Hope this helps! |

Hey guys. Im installing a trd exhaust on my frs too. Looking for some insight. Is the trd gasket you guys used recommended or is it ok to use any 2.5 inch gasket? Also did you guys reuse the bolts and gasket from the cat to midpipe flange?
