no gasket.

USE this part number from repco best stuff around and you can get it in grey and black so it looks invisble.

RB26 or RB25 GTS-4 use loctite grey maxx part number 34238

RB25 or RB25 black sump use Loctite Black Maxx part number 39145

Nissan use a product called 3Bond which is made in Japan. Can be obtained from Bearing Traders or some other places like Bursons. Not saying it's better than loctite but it's definitely better :0

Urethane based rather than silicon based. Plus Nissan, Toyota, Mazda and Subaru (to name a few) all use the same stuff.

Loctite works fine if you can't get the 3Bond

i refuse to use that orange gear makes your work look half assed.. the whole point of nissan using it is to determine warranty jobs and if something has been apart before. The loctite numbers above are the grey and black equivs.

The 3Bond is grey. I know the orange stuff you are referring to but that is used for gearboxes by Toyota. Not crankcase.

The genuine NISSAN aftersales 3 bond is orange. i used to use about 10 tubes a week whilst working for NISSAN.... hence my hatred of it :)

Orange and red silicone should be illegal, it makes any job you do look bad. Wurth make a good grey "silicone special" something or other, it works great, doesn't sag or fall off inside the engine and looks factory.

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
