PaulR Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Hi, Hoping someone has the torque specs handy for the 12mm ring-gear bolts used on the R200. I have a 280ZX manual that specs the 10mm ?? bolts at 43-51 ft-lb, but I assume the 12mm bolts are different. As usual, thanks in advance.

PaulR Posted May 22, 2004 Author Share Posted May 22, 2004 Thanks for the torque info! Another trivia question Is it a good idea to use a gasket sealer (like Permatex or RTV) on the cover gasket? When I went to remove the original cover, it was stuck really good! there didn't seem to be any evidence of sealer and I have no reason to believe it had ever been removed before, but I don't know for sure. BTW, have just completed the install of a NISMO LSD carrier into this diff. Hope to have it back on the road soon. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David K Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 Use grey Permatex. It has a Nissan part number on the back of the tube. Thats what Nissan/Infiniti used to seal oil pans and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
