Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Stock OEM Nissan, bought at the dealer. Stick to posting in one thread. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 I've used Felpro, Victor Reinz, Rock Auto's house brand.. they were all just fine for a stock build. OEM would be best, but never had an issue with any of the others. If you are going for a performance build.. go OEM. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 NAPA $23 CDN. I think it was Felpro. Two different L20Bs not a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 I believe the felpro is .047 thick, The victor reinz was .060.. Both get listed as the same gasket for the l16/ l18/ l20b.... I believe they are only good for the stock bore size of the l18 and l20b of 85mm.... The oem is the best and I think are for up to 88.5mm and .060 thick. Quote Link to comment
d.p Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 I used felpro for mine which came with valve seals too. Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 L16s I use Felpro On 85mm I use the Nissan or Durapro from Australia(made in Japan) Quote Link to comment
MantisX620 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I'm been using a felpro on a boosted L20b for the last 5k miles. No issues yet. I'm using arp studs though, so that may be helping out. MantisX Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Nismo. Never had luck with felpro HG, so always used OEM Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 As long as the gasket has the graphite coating, it should (?) be as good as OEM. Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 the Durapro brand I got from Baz in Australia is the 87 mm Graphite version 1 Quote Link to comment
