I am bought an 83 280zxt that has a bad turbo, it came with a rebuilt one that I need to install. I was reading the how to in the Haynes manual (page 119) and saw some gaskets, I firgured that I might as well replace them. Are these the right ones? They don't have a pic on the website, I thought I would ask before I bought something I didn't need.

Thanks guys!

Those are the (#1) manifold to turbo (#2) turbo to downpipe gaskets. Those don't have anything to do w/ rebuilding a turbo. I highly suggest having a professional shop rebuild the turbo (if that is the correct problem). I have had a local turbo shop rebuild 4 turbos. Price is usually around $350 for the stock T3.

i think you mis-understood his question, from what i read, the car has one blown turbo on the car and came with one rebuilt turbo that he himself needs to install in place of the one that is blown on the car already, in which case those gaskets you have there are the ones you need.

Ah yeah... sorry. I misread your post. Indeed you might as well replace those gaskets while you're in there.
