pretty simple and straightforward, i'm trying to find a place that sells a turbo inlet gasket thats t3 sized. did and little searching and found nothing, just wondering what other people with t3 turbos are using.

yup it is, I had a gasket from a z32 in stock which I know is a t2 flange and one from a z31 in stock, and measured them and sure enough the z31 is the bigger gasket, so I'm sure it's a t3 flange

yeah i know its straightforward, but i guess i should have mentioned that i'm looking for good quality gaskets. i found t3 gaskets on ebay but i don't trust them not to blow out. its good to know about the z31 gasket thats where i'll be getting it from then. thank you

the z32 gasket is a t2 flange, but the oem gaskets are very good gaskets, it's almost like a plate of metal, lol, none of that paper crap, but to be clear you have to get the z31 gasket

Are the Z31's outlet different from the Z32's. I believe I have used both as replacements for my stock SR gasket. The pics on my FAST look the same.

nope, the picture does look the same in FAST but it list two different part numbers, you are talking about the exhaust side outlet right? if you are talking about the triangle shaped gasket that is on the cold side of the turbo, then yes you are right they are the same between the z31 and z32

No I meant the 4 hole manifold to turbo gasket.

U might be right though, because just looked up an N12 pulsar turbo, and that has the same part# as the Z32 gaskets so, must be different than the Z31. Good job, Somethin for me to remember.
