Gaskets for overpipe?
 
Hey y'all i have a front pipe and catback installed on my brz currently and want to install a header and overpipe in a few weeks. I bought some grimspeed header gaskets already but i was wondering if i should replace the gaskets that go on either side of the overpipe as well?

Might as well since the new overpipe and header will come with some

Got both the headers and overpipe used with 2k miles on them so i gotta buy the gaskets separately.

You might as well while your already down there, since gaskets eventually go bad over a long period of time putting a new one now could save you the hassle later on if one were to go bad.

if you haven't purchased already I recommend these. Overpipe connections are notorious for getting leaks, and these are the thickest gaskets I've had out of any supplied invidia, oem, or grimmspeed I've tried.

Any updates on them, thinking of ordering them rn.

They were holding up fine going on about a year, but my exhaust bolts peaced out about a month ago and the leak destroyed them. I replaced them with the same stuff along with some brand new bolts/lock nuts and the exhaust is once again sealed up.

Does anyone know if these specific gaskets have an orientation? Which side faces forward?

IINM the gaskets have tabs at the ends which should tell you the orientation - make a note of the old gasket's tab positions when you pull off the overpipe.
