Rocker Cover Gasket

[konect]

Hey biatches !

My rocker cover gasket leak has finally gotten to the stage where it is leaking onto the manifold so I had better do something about it.

Question: Where can I got one from to suit RB20DET? Should I gen nissan or will another one suffice ?

Thanks.

i got mine from nissan pretty sure it was around $100 or maybe a little less for both gaskets and all those little rubber gromet washer things (make sure u replace them as they do make a difference).

Rang nissan and the gasket is ~$36 and the little o-rings are $2.50ea x 40

Just gotta get a price on installation. My local Nissan said that they dont deal with imports.

yeah and u will probally be better off replacing both gaskets, meaning both rocker covers, cos if one is gone i'm sure the other is on its way too. dam i didn't think there were 40...

dude do it urself and save the cash, just disconnect all that top L bend inlet crap, undo all those screws/bolts and pop the thing off. clean it up, put new gaskets in the groove that it sits in and put all back together. There is a particular order to put those bolts back in to ensure its evenly done up, was in the skyline workshop manual if remember correctly.

quoted ~$70 for labour and i dont wanna f**k it up doing it myself.

So I would need 2 gaskets I thought it was just one big one.

Hopefully these 2 images make sense. Its of my VIN of when my car used to be a RB20DE, and i'm sure its the same with RB20DET.

PS: Just found my reciept, and confirming i only needed 20 rubber washers.

gaskets were 29.57 each and washers 42.80 all up plus 10.19 tax coming to 112.15 in total from garry rogers nissan in glen waverley. Also those part numbers mentioned on that FAST screenshot are same with on the reciept.
