Anyone Know Were To Get A Water Pump Gasket?

After searchin around for a little while iv found its quite hard to get one. i tried repco and autobarn. both came up empty.

I thought you just use gasket maker sealant on the mating surfaces and bolt it up.

That's correct. From the factory there's no gasket for the WP but Nissan uses a Sealant, usually 3-Bond or similar. Some aftermarket WP's come with a gasket, which is probably where the confusion occurs.

Thanks for the reply guys. its just that when i got the pump the guy said just get a gasket from bersons or somethin.

fairly sure you will find a standard rb30 vl commodore gasket will fit the rb20, fairly sure its only rb25 that has the offset bolt on the pump.

use some loctite gasket maker (silicon stuff) as long as the surfaces are clean itll be fine...
