Headgasket

[Dan_K11]

hey, i was wondering if anyone could help me, im just lookin at the Nismo Headgasket for the cg13de, and there is two to choose from... 0.5 or 0.6.

does anyone know what difference this makes and explain what you benefit if there's any at all of either of them please.

Cheers!

It will change the compression.

thinner gasket means hiighr compression thicker lowers the compression

only difference i know to is that a thicker headgasket means you can run more boost on a turbo'd car. no idea of the differences on N/A though...

the 0.5 and 0.6 will give you lower commpresion they are normaly used when you are running a turbo

 

[tommo]

i know pulsars run 1.4mm head gaskets as standard

 

[TONEY]

the sr20 n/a one is much thiner

those are thin gaskets designed for naturally aspirated, i think standard there 1.2, if u run a turbo u need a 2mm headgasket
