Mr. Gasket Copperseal Exhaust Gaskets for SR20DET

[http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MRG-7215&N=700+115&autoview=sku](http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MRG-7215&N=700+115&autoview=sku)

I need a new gasket and am wondering if I should get this copper unit or a 3-layer unit from Nissan #14036-75F00

I’m running the 7 layer one too. In the end, it’s worth the money.

1. You can reuse it.

2. You save yourself the time of scraping off the old gasket.

3. You save yourself the time and money of driving to Nissan to pick up another gasket.

Leave it to mark to turn one point into three… haha

Both the metal layered gaskets and the copper are re-usable. Give the copper a try let us know how it is!

I think the 7 layer is a little thick and a 5 or 3 layer is more then sufficient for most setups.

I went to CT and ordered the copper gasket. Rang in at $29+tax ($32 something after). I should get it in a few days.

I would have gone with Nissan but they screwed me over in the last order. :o

Picked it up in a few days. Looks good :dunno:
