HKS Grommet Type Head Gasket Kit for R32 / R33 / R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R [2309-RN008]

The HKS Grommet Type Head Gasket Kit for the R32, R33, and R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R is engineered for high-performance RB26DETT applications, delivering exceptional sealing and durability under extreme conditions. This kit features a 1.2mm thick grommet-style metal head gasket designed to handle high boost and cylinder pressures, while maintaining reliable thermal management. It includes all essential components for a complete installation, including the head gasket, exhaust manifold gasket, intake manifold gasket, and throttle body gasket, ensuring a precise fit and optimal performance for both street and track builds.

The Performance Requirement from Head Gasket

• HKS explains that because the cylinder block and head are not completely rigid, tightening the head bolts creates uneven gaps and surface pressure across the mating surfaces. Combustion pressure and engine vibrations continually change these conditions, causing the contact surfaces to be repeatedly stressed. A high-quality gasket from HKS is designed to distribute surface pressure as evenly as possible and quickly adapt to any shifting gaps, maintaining a consistent and reliable seal under demanding conditions.

Grommet Type Head Gasket Kit

• HKS also optimizes engine cooling balance by prioritizing the cylinder head side, which raises the knock limit and allows for more aggressive ignition timing. Utilizing a robust grommet structure, the gasket provides excellent resistance to blowouts, making it an ideal choice for high-power builds and enthusiasts who engage in circuit driving.
