Default what sized gasket???

bit puzzled on this one. reet, im getting a blitz nur spec-r in the post hopefully monday. its the centre and backbox. im mating it upto my decat downpipe, which tapers to 2.5" at the bottom. thinking of swapping the gasket between downpipe and centre for a new one.

which size do i need??? ive seen 3" ones 2.5" ones advertised and have no idea basically.

also, where do i get a gasket to fit the nur specs 3" pipework bewteen the centre and backbox?

ARGH!! HELP...

the gasket for the down pipe to center will be ok to reuse as for the center to back the pipe work is 3 inches but at the joins it actually is 2 1/2 inches it will bolt straight on to your old exhaust part i just fitted one i just used gun gum on the back box to center didnt do mine any harm cheers scoobzie

Andy, you need a 2 1/2" downpipe to mid section cone gasket and a 3" mid to rear.
Try scoobyworld.They don't list a 3" though. I'd use gun gum as scoobzie said.

thought as much for the downpipe gasket...

theres a dude selling them on ebay and hes let me have one of each (2.5" and 3" for £20 posted) may be a member on here. im gonna let them arrive and then see how much fun i have lol.

good mate of mine works at eddie wrights and is gonna help me fit it when it comes, so i assume he'll have gun gum if i dont source a rear/centre gasket.

roger clarke motorsport are rather expensive, and i dont need a full fitting kit for £49.81 . botls are all re-usable, just need the downpipe gasket mainly as the other is fubared....

Does anyone know where else to get new bolts & springs? As above, roger clarke motorsport are rather expensive I found when it came to these. Was like £4 a bolt and had to buy spring separately.
