Hey,

The headgasket is the same as the australian delivered city non-turbo so you can go to any spare parts supplier and order one in.

BTW i got your email, thought id just reply here...

what about the inlet and exhaust gasket?
are they the same?
what else gasket do i need in order to pull out and put back the head?

Manifold gasket is different. It doesn't have the cutouts for the injectors.  If you remove it carefully so it doesnt tear, you may be able to get away with re-using it, with the aid of some sealant. A bit dodgy, yes, but it might be your only option other than making one or getting one imported.

so should i get a "head gasket set" from repco or just the "head gasket" itself? i mean...if i get a non-turbo head gasket set...how many gasket i can use out of that set....? Boost boy do u mean the exhaust gasket or inlet gasket i can re-use?....my friend's stupid mechanic has already removed the head 3 months ago and i guess he throw away all the gasket already.....
do you think local honda dealer can import a set if i place an order?
thanks heaps....

The only thing you can really get through honda australia is the head gasket itself.  Everthing else has to be either custom made or imported which gets very expensive.  Forgot that you will also need the turbo gaskets too...
Good idea to change the cam belt whilst you are at it...
