Exhaust Gasket question.

I will be purchasing a used Midpipe
soon, and will be installing it soon also.
My question is..

Do we need special type of gaskets from the
DP/MP and MP/CB connections??

I looked in RX7 store, they are like 40 a set.
Are they any difference in gaskets??
SOmething special about them??

Or would some from the local auto store
be sufficient????


THanks

I used a cheap gasket from DP to MP. Doesnt seem to have any problems, but I'd like to hear what other people are saying.

Thats what I did on mine, the guy also threw in some used gaskets when I bought my parts. I just put on the ones that looked the best and antiseized the bolts. It has worked great for me.

I was told by the RX-7 Store that if the stock gasket is not good enough to reuse then use "liguid gasked" never heard of it but I guess I will find out...
