I guess Nissan could get them if you wanna give them your first born, but I'm sure there is other places on the web you could source some. If you find any for a decent price let me know as I will be needing new gaskets soon as well.

Nissan parts will sell them and every time I have ever went to purchase one they have been in stock. It's not the name but the part number you want to quote to Nissan.

You could try ebay as well: http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m570.l1313&_nkw=rb25+turbo+gasket&_sacat=See-All-Categories

However Cooma Diesel, the people that rebuilt my old turbo, said to use Garrett gaskets. They said the Nissan ones are prone to blow outs due to the multilayer design. The single layer Garrett ones are a lot cheaper and haven't failed me yet. The shop is in Fyshwick, they have replacement gaskets in stock, just take a sample.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
