    Anybody here use the zzp rubber throttle body gasket for their gtp? Is it trouble free or should I just stick to paper gaskets? I'd like to clean the throttle body sometime soon. Btw I have a 01 gtp.

    You have an L36 which comes with a rubber one. The basis behind the ZZP rubber one is never having to replace it again. But they get dirty, don't line back up and are flattened etc. So they don't reseal very well. It's easier and less painful to get a new paper one each time vs possibly having coolant leak into the intake by reusing a rubber one.
