Hey guys, I just picked up a used APEX GT exhaust for my S14, and I was just making sure if it would be okay to use the stock bolts [cat-exhaust] and the stock metal gasket. I don't want any exhaust leaks

The seller assured me it would be fine, i'm just double checking before I install it.

replacing them would be better than not replacing

i would definately replace the gasket but the bolts you shouldnt have to replace unless you're going to be taking your exhaust on and off...i cross-threaded both of him and had to have them drilled out and replaced...

replace the bolts, old ones rust and break and replace the gasket too.
