hey guys im desperate to get a RB20E not DE! rocker cover gasket off the r33 skyline can anyone tell me where i can getone from or a partnumber?

Exactly the same as RB30E type (VL Commode, R31 Skyline). Any Repco, Burson's, Autobarn, etc will be able to help.

no! i have a rb30 gasket and its different its to thick for the rb20e r33 rocker cover the rb20e r32 and r31 cover is slightly different then the r33 rb20e so can anyone help me out???

In that case genuine is probably your only option. Take your VIN to your local Nissan dealer and they should be able to look up the PN and order it in for you. It will probably have to come from Japan.

Alternatively, see if an RB30 rocker cover will bolt on.

thats the problem im using the rb20e rocker cover on a rb30! so i dont have a VIN unless someone can help me out? please guys!

If I get the time I'll look it up tomorrow at work, but without a VIN it will be a case of use at your own risk.

A bit of advice - be clearer about exactly what your trying to do, it would have saved some time.

Well according to FAST the PN for the rocker cover gasket is:

13270-42L00

BUT....that's also the same PN for R31 and R32 RB20DE (I just checked).

very intresting? maybe just the rb30 rocker cover is different gasket to the rb20 but all rb20e gaskets must be the same from r31 to r33 u mentioned above that its the same part number for the r31 and r32 rb20DE? im looking for the rb20E not DE! single cam or was that just a mistype?

Sorry my mistake, I meant RB20E (not DE).

sweet so thats the part number from nissan! il grab one tommorow and let you know how i go, also do you know roughly the price?

I'd be surprised if any Nissan dealer held one in stock (but you never know your luck......). It will almost certainly have to be brought in from Japan. No idea on price.

      Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
