CROSSOVER PARTS (between the USDM CA18DE and the JDM CA18DET)

If you are looking for parts, tell the parts store that you have an 88' Nissan Pulsar NX SE. 99% of the time it will work without issues.
Please note: Nissan NA is no longer making many of the gaskets, pumps, etc. for the CA18DE that was in the Pulsar. They should all still be able to be purchased from a parts store though.

Head Studs
-Tightening Procedure; Torque in THREE stages: 30 ft-lbs, then 55 ft-lbs, then 80 ft-lbs (using their moly grease).loosen and re-torque THREE MORE times! Heat cycle the studs (start and run to NOT).Let the engine cool down, thoroughly check torque on studs, and tighten as necessary
-NOTE! The head stud above the water pump will sit higher than the other studs. The hole isn't as deep due to clearance issues with the pump housing in the block. How much seems to vary from motor to motor. Because of this you need to add an extra washer to this stud so the nut will not bottom out on the stud. Simply re-use one of the stock washers
