Hi People , just near to finish the head gasket swap but found out that I have to replace the intake manifold gasket as well.
I have a JDM ej20G engine and I would like to know could which intake manifold gasket should I use, are the ej22t one or the wrx one?
Thanks for all your help!

i believe the WRX one has a different bolt pattern so it wont work. im not so sure about the ej22 one though. you might just have to go check it out at a parts store or the dealership.
if that doesnt work, i think they have squares of gasket that you can cut into whatever size/shape you need it for. i believe ive seen it at schucks(sp?) auto parts.

You will want to use a DOHC Ej25 head gasket. Your Ej20G has the inline bolt pattern for the manifold, just like your DOHC 2.5's. Your ports may be slightly larger than the gasket, but nothing that a sharpie and an exacto can't fix prior to reassembly...
