I found that a Japanese 2002 Honda CRV uses the correct size donut gasket and picked up one of those. $30.00 down the drain.

My problem now is the front pipe does not fit at all to the over pipe. Headers bolted up and torque'd to spec, put the overpipe on and left it finger tight so i could still get a little wiggle room there, the problem seems to be the bracket welded mid-way on the front-pipe doesn't allow me to position the pipe properly. Would really help if JDL had some type of instructions/guide to ensure people like me are doing things properly. Suggestions?

Edit: Here's the problem. The bracket welded the front pipe literally has to be forced over the bracket on the car. It requires force to put on then has extremely limited mobility once mounted. The factory bracket is much larger allowing for wiggle room and adjustability. How am i supposed to fix this?
