Custom Gasket or Trust Gasket

[Roy]

Whilst ripping my turbo off i noted that the gasket between the manifold and turbo is gone.

I had ordered a genuine Trust Gasket, but chasing it yesterday they are out of stock for another 2-3 weeks.

So does anyone know where i may be able to pick up a genuine gasket in Melb/SA or perhaps get one cut? I was htinking baout grabbing some 1.2mm copper sheet and making my own as a temp measure, but rather not be doing stuff like that:(

Any help would be appreciated, im running out of time, Calder is fast approaching:(

Mate,

I wouldn't be too concerned about the gasket if times a problem......grab some gasket sheet of the same material and thickness as the original and cut one out. A lot of exhaust and turbo places end up doing this anyway so I wouldn't call it a temp fix......

I am replacing my turbo at the moment too. I ordered replacement gaskets from GCG - the manifold->turbo gasket was $15, oil drain gasket $1.35 - and he sent them COD the same day. They are up in Sydney, I am expecting it to arrive tomorrow

Problem is the Trust turbos are based on Mitsubishi turbos, and GCG dotn really do much with them:(

Hey mate,

The place where I have all my turbo work done have heaps of gaskets lying around the shop and MIGHT have one to suit.....try calling ATP after the pub holiday. If you want a phone number let me know....
