Message It's a rhetorical question and I'm just bitching here cause I'm finally installing my new manifolds and turbos and downpipes here on Saturday night. I got all the old parts off and now I'm stuck because I have no gaskets to go between the new exhaust manifolds and the heads. Do people really ever pull their engine and install new manifolds without installing new gaskets?

In the end I know it's my fault, but when installing 30+ new parts at once, it's easy to forget to order a gasket here or there. It would be nice if the stores that sell these manifolds would at least recommend an option to purchase gaskets with the manifolds so people like me won't have to wait for days after they've taken everything apart.

Just a tip - if you're ordering MSP manifolds, order some exhaust -> head gaskets too (Nissan part #14036-30P00).
