Why? Why not leave the information for other people to see so they don't have to make threads?
:S
Only because I made this thread twice... lol

Either are fine really, Genuine OEM is my preference, but people have their opinions on both, generally cost based arguments..
More importantly than gasket choice would be replacing all of the bolts and nuts with proper studs nuts and locking tabs.
Hmmm I see, so regarding high boost they are both on the same standard roughly? I just don't want to get an OEM gasket then have it start leaking again when I ramp up the boost.
That's definitely planned, every stud, bolt and nut will be getting replaced for the exhaust side
just go to bursons and get a standard exhaust manifold gasket and t3 turbo gasket. they normally sell permaseal ones which are good quality.
but since you are missing bolts id be checking how flat the manifold is now, it may need a machine or you will keep blowing gaskets
Not too keen on the permaseal, from what I've read their quality is not as good as OEM.
Yeah I will be getting a set of OEM exhaust mani studs at the same time and the rest of the studs and bolts/nuts anndddd a machining if need be...

- Car : Skyline R32 GTS-4 4-Door
So an exhaust leak has appeared in my rb20det, to be honest unsure whether it's the exhaust manifold gasket (half are studs and half are bolts :?) or turbo outlet gasket (only sporting 3 out of the 6 bolts and studs.
So im planning to replace all the gasket around the turbo and exhaust mani at the same time.
So I'm swinging between either buying a few Cometic gaskets to cover my needs???
or buying a full complete OEM gasket kit (I know I don't need them all but its just as cheap)???
This car has been getting built for a few years now, so I do plan to get some power into her.
I already have a cometic triple layer steel head gasket and arp head bolts.
Basically my question is, if I plan to run say about 18-20+ pound of boost in the near future, which gaskets would hold the boost more efficiently and more safely? 'Cometic or OEM'??
I have done a Google Search and what not, but didn't really get the info I needed.
Thanks people -

That set should fit. There's not really any difference between all 3 of those cars (in terms of HICAS).
Why not consider a complete HICAS eliminator kit and learn to love driving your car?
Thanks GTSBoy, I was considering that as an option but being one of the few 4 door GTS4's, I'd like to keep it with the factory options and what not.
Haha, I love every moment being inside this car my car

Hey all I need a little help...
I have a R32 GTS-4 and I need to get new "rear inner rack ends/tie rods".
In short I've found these rear tie rods on GKTech, but I am not 100% sure they will fit.
If I'm correct the GTS-4 has the same tie rods/rack ends as a GTR?
They say compatible with r32 GTST and GTR, so I shouldn't have a problem here right?Thank you in advance for the help

If I'm correct the GTS-4 has the same tie rods/rack ends as a GTR? So these ones should fit either way?Thank you in advance for the help
