Vanislru Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I need 2 header gaskets and 2 inlet/outlet turbo gaskets, so off to the local suby dealership... the girl at the counter says it'll be $149.34 cdn for 2 header gaskets and another $50 for the turbo gaskets:eek:. I was shocked to say the least, the suby dealers 60miles away want $75 for all of them. I'm going with the dealership down island but whats a "reasonable" price to pay for these? I will most likely order another set to avoid any future extortion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishy75 Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I think I paid around $15 each for the turbo gaskets (u/p and d/p), and $8 or $10 each for the turbo exhaust manifold gaskets from the dealer here in Vic. Lemme know if you want me to pick some up for you and send them on the bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 kewl, how'd the turbo work out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishy75 Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 got one from the junker for a decent price and all's well. She's running great, although the new turbo has some minor cracking arouund the wastegate and I notice it doesn't boost quite as well. Your header gaskets are normal OEM exhaust manifold gaskets for the TWE pipes aren't they? I just called Saunders, and the prices are as follows: $7.85 each for exhaust manifold $8.85 for u/p turbo inlet $10.95 for d/p turbo outlet Quite the difference I'd say.

Subarutex Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 sounds like the parts person gave you the prices for the Head Gaskets, not the exhaust gaskets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted March 23, 2005 Author Share Posted March 23, 2005 sounds like the parts person gave you the prices for the Head Gaskets, not the exhaust gaskets. That's what I thought too but that wasn't the case, i phoned them back to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbobdole Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Did they serve VASSOLINE with that. Yeah, I paid like $7 or so each for mine... Not to rob this thread, but heres a question... I recently did my exaust manifold gaskets, and now I need to pull the exaust again to do the O2.... Do I NEED new gaskets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushbasher Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 nah. Well if you manage to crack or break them then yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbobdole Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Cool, Ok thanks.... You can have your thread back now:-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty2Austin Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 call the parts department at Carter Subaru (in Seattle,WA), and you could probably get them pretty cheap there too... I know they ship all around the world and gaskets should be pretty cheap to send to canada... just my 2¢ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
