Maybe you should go to Mr turbo and other place and then try. They not interested when you phone asking for something. If you can't find that gasket, you can make your own out of gasket paper

do You still have the old one?

TTwakkie04 Aug 2015, 14:15

nope, had it at full boost a year ago to have a branch built up. they did a "dry assembly", they said that they don't use gaskets. i though it wouldn't work at all, but i lasted a year so yea.

I think I did a cad on this a while back, will check, then you can have some cut. If you want.

Also had the same problem, same gasket.
I went everywhere in person and nobody could/wanted to help me.
Let us know if you come right at Nissan with the part number.

Also budget sheet metal can cut one out of aluminium for about a grand but they need a cad and it's your problem if it doesn't work or wholes are wrong or what ever. a grand seems like too much money for a gasket methinks.

Yup, lazy idiots is a nice way of putting it 😀 My personal experience though: STAY AWAY FROM MR. TURBO!!

Nissan has or can get all the parts. The time it takes to get them varies though, a few days to over a month.

With all the turbo gaskets and manifold gaskets I only use the oem, pricing is very reasonable you must just be patient with giving them the right numbers etc and waiting but I've never had an issue with oem turbo gaskets, those cheap gaskets from Mr turbo etc just leak again.
