Daihatsu EF-RL Head Set Gasket















Finally I'm decided to upload the photo on this Daihatsu Move EF-RL head set gasket in this blog, initially I feel that the gasket content on EF-RL engine is quite similar to one Perodua Kelisa or Kenari EJ-DE engine, those items that you may need to change in between this 2 model is Cylinder Head Gasket, Rocker Cover Gasket and Intake Manifold Gasket.

But it seem I had little under estimate the content in EF-RL gasket set, when I look at it, the inclusion of many loose item gasket and o-ring, made it become one of the most items pack in gasket set for the Daihatsu K-Car engine, even JB-JL and JB-DET don't have such a amount of items in their gasket set.

The extra gasket piece that caught my eye is the turbo outlet gasket and the throttle body gasket, quite interesting to found throttle body gasket in EF-RL engine which I never seen in other EJ or EF series engine gasket set.

Subaru Forester 2.5 Turbo Gasket Set

















Before that I'm already headache with all kind of patterns changes on Subaru EJ20 engine gasket, still learning, sometime in a hard way, may be will end up stocking all the unpopular model gasket in my store.

Still puzzling in EJ20, already need to look at some of the EJ25 model, Google search may easily found those gasket photo, one of them that I like most is the above Subaru EJ255 engine gasket kit set, which is use on Subaru Forester 2.5 Turbo.

This is just a start on the EJ25 journey, as same with EJ20, EJ25 also content various model that will change in pattern on their gasket which include EJ25D, EJ25DZ, EJ253, EJ254 and EJ255.

An EJ208 Engine Gasket photo again!


















Earlier post you have my new photo on FB page cover photo, which is some engine gasket content on Subaru EJ208 engine. As it is EJ208, should we just consider it is EJ20 version 8?

And I found a photo that show similar content as mine during google search, this seem content more items in the bottom side of engine which I still not having it in my store, but I'm pretty sure this is not the full content as well, as you know, I actually have the content list which it is amazing to see such a big number of items to content in one full set gasket.

Engine Rocker Cover on iPhone Case Cover
























Before this, I post about the iPhone case cover with engine gasket design, now I found some creative design using the engine rocker cover as the design for the iPhone case cover.

Although it may not so attractive for most of the user, but for motor fans or automotive enthusiasm may find this so interesting that they wish to have one.

My FB Page New Cover Photo















Since Facebook had change its appearance to timeline version, its header allow us to put an extra cover photo to make you on profile more attractive, it had been quite some time I just left the cover photo blank in the KP Gasket page in Facebook.

It just happen someone is looking for something like Subaru EJ20 version 8 gasket, oh come on, don't just tell me like that, I can't even recognise that Subaru is version what when I see it directly, just let me see some of the gasket sample and I may try my best to check on my side.

But seem some not even dare to dismantle anything before he or she can be sure that the parts are available, it seems like having the stock in my store also not that easy to end it up at the end consumer for this type of engine.

It also take some time for me to gather some of those gasket to take a family photo for them, it looks like a head set isn't it? Obviously it is not, it is not completed, but yet it can be also, sound tricky isn't it, haha....I think I will have some tough time to get familiar with this engine model.

Is Nissan RB28 an Official Engine



















Customer looking for Nissan RB28 Engine gasket kit, since can't find the engine code in my gasket catalog under Nissan RB series engine section so just do some google search.

The finding is, RB28 engine may be not actually really official engine from Nissan, indeed it may the modified product from one of the RB26 engine, let's see the fact from wikipedia source,

RB26DETT Z2


RB26DETT Z2This is the engine used in the Nissan Skyline GT-R Z-Tune built by Nismo. It uses the stronger RB26 N-1 block (87.0 x 73.7 mm), modified with Nismo parts, bored and stroked to 2.8 L (87.0 x 77.7 mm). The end result was the RB28Z2, which produces 510 bhp (368 kW) and 540 N·m of torque.

So, may be we can conclude that for engine gasket kit, RB28 is using the same gasket with RB26.
