onekickkawi Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 This may not be the best section but the motor is going in a dime so I decided to post here. I just had the block decked and bored and am slowly assembling it. I checked the clearance on the oil pump gears that reside in the front cover and I am stuck. I dont recall seeing a gasket there, but in the back of my head something is telling me "there has to be, metal on metal like that wont seal". Has anyone rebuild an SR20 and can chime in on this? Im hesitant to post on the NISMO board cause it will probably be flame city for such a n00bish question. side note I know to prime the gears with grease before assembling. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Ha ha I bet it's a liquid sealer/gasket. The KA24DE has an internal crank driven oil pump and it's shown as a tube of sealer. 1 Quote Link to comment
onekickkawi Posted August 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Thats what I am thinking but I cant find a definite answer... maybe ill post on NISMO board and let them flame away. I will double check the factory sr manual I have to see if it references any liquid gasket Quote Link to comment
