How important is it that these are A1 condition??

I\'ve recently bought LIM, UIM and DP Gaskets.

they are the manifold/turbo gaskets no ?

would want new ones to be sure of getting no exhaust leak around there.

Any idea how much, and where I can get them from more or less next day!? I take it the bit that\'s attached to the block is the manifold. So it\'s the gaskets between the manifold and turbo I need.

They are manifold to turbopack gaskets, mazda just call them turbocharger gaskets. They are probably very expensive. EPC says the UK part numbers are N3B7-13-710A (larger one) and N3B8-13-710A (smaller one) - give your local mazda parts guys a call and see what they have to say!

You don\'t always need new ones for this location. I reused my old ones on my first rebuild with no problems. Just depends what condition they\'re in. I\'ve got a good set of used ones too if your old ones are shot. I\'m in the garage tonight so I\'ll dig them out just in case.

Make sure the layers of metal aren\'t separating anywhere and that the gaskets are flat, no kinks in them (should be alright if you took them off carefully). Check for any cracks in them too. Other than that there\'s not a lot can go wrong with them.
