J-pipe/pre-cat gaskets

Hello all. I just bought a used RV-6 J-pipe, and it has no hardware or gaskets. I have the RV-6 test pipe, so I have a gasket and nuts and bolts to make the test pipe to j-pipe connection. As for the J-pipe to pre-cat connection, are those custom gaskets, or can I find those online? I'm not sure what to look for or where to buy them. Also, do I re-use the nuts and bolts that currently connect the j-pipe to the pre-cats, or should I aquire new bolts?

Thanks in advance for your help. I just wanted to have this all set before I get under there, start taking things apart and don't have everything I need!

matt, might be worth your while to call up the dealer since richie uses the honda gaskets. the one on your test pipe should be fine since you probably havent had it in that long

and you can reuse the bolts you have, you dont have crazy miles on the car, plus the bolts/nuts aren't torque to yield.

J pipe to precat gaskets are not OEM Honda gaskets... those are the precats to block gaskets.

I just ordered them from Richie. Cheap and easy enough, 2 gaskets and 6 nuts were $12.50 shipped.
