if you are going to do one gasket then you might aswell do all 3 of them just to be sure. for the cost of the extra gaskets it worth it and it means they shouldnt blow out later once its pushing the full pressure through properly again.

I've been advised after calling around a number of workshops that the Nissan thick multilayer gaskets are the best one's to go with..
It was also suggested that i have the turbo mounts machined to make sure they are flat. Should i get this done whilst the assembly is all off the car ?

Here is the result of the old gasket...
As you can see... dead..
However i think i need a new manifold as the old one must have had a problem at some point and they put helicoil in the stud hole, i think that is what stretched and caused the gasket to go..
