Nissan Crazy

Post by Phinx »

Ok so I have blown my Turbo to manifold gasket and quickly ordered 4 new Head to manifolds and Turbo to manifold it cost me round about R 170 which I didn't think was to bad.

Only to find out today that all the gaskets are wrong the gave me the triangler intake gasket and the NA Manifold to head gasket.

Now I have corrected the order and returning the stuff but the N/A manifold to turbo gaskets are R25 each the Turbo ones are R95 each thats damn crazy

now my order is R 530 just for gaskets...

Damn Nissan Rip off

Do you guys know where can I get the head to exhaust manifold gasket for cheaper than Nissan, they ask a boosted R614. It's for the SR20DET
200SX S13 converted with SR20DET engine and bigger front intercooler.

Wow I forgot how nice the Nissan Turbo Head to manifold gaskets are.

Anyway Finished the the Gasket replacement this weekend, All new Everything with locking plates, So if the studs come out now I have no damn clue.

The Turbo Feels the same no seat of the pants increase, Now It time for the intercooler replacement. Hopefully some power to be made
