Swervey McZCar Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 You may remember I was considering the 300zx ECU swap because I THOUGHT I was revving to quickly for my AFM to react. Well, the poor performance may be the cause of the blown head gasket but I supect just a symptom of the blown head gasket. Either way, I am in the market for a head gasket. My engine has less than 1000 miles on it and if I am going to have it apart again, I might as well put a metal gasket in. Does anyone have a 1mm or 2mm head gasket laying around? Please let me know if you have one. I will buy something this time Thanks! -Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swervey McZCar Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 Has anyone ever done business with Z CAR Customs. Looks like they have a good selection on these gaskets. http://www.zccjdm.com/store.php?seller=azcarbum&pd=858312 -Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue72 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 They are a re-seller for Kameari products which are made in Japan. I haven't heard any complaints about what they sell (aside from the price:wink:) MSA also sells some Kameari products including their head gaskets. Tomorrow I'm calling Courtesy Nissan to see if they still have 1mm HKS gaskets in stock. That's about the only other feasible option I can think of.

blue72 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Called Courtesy Nissan today, and they told me no 1mm or 2mm metal head gaskets in stock and that they haven't been for quite some time. I'm currently researching copper head gaskets myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swervey McZCar Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 I see 2-cars per week with this engine and they still make gaskets for a flathead ford. What the heck man? Anyone interested in a group buy of Cometic Head gaskets? Maybe just to stock up and sell them to hybridzers as they need them. They get good reviews from the folks on this site who have actually used them. They will make custom gaskets in small lots. Headgasket.com will also if the preference is for copper over MLS. For ease of intsall, I prefer MLS personally. -Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some who make copper gaskets with very low (or no) minimums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
