Installation Notes:

  • Professional installation recommended
  • Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly before installation
  • Use proper torque specifications for valve cover bolts

  • Allow RTV sealant to cure if used on end seals (follow manufacturer recommendations)
  • Inspect valve cover for warping before installation

Why Multi-Layer Steel (MLS)?

Cometic's multi-layer steel gaskets use multiple layers of stainless steel with elastomeric coatings to provide superior sealing compared to traditional rubber gaskets. MLS gaskets conform better to imperfect surfaces, resist extreme temperatures, and maintain their sealing properties even under high cylinder pressures. This makes them ideal for modified engines running higher boost or aggressive tuning.

RWD vs. FWD SR20:

IMPORTANT: This gasket kit is designed specifically for RWD SR20 engines (S13/S14/S15 chassis). RWD and FWD SR20 engines have different valve cover configurations and are NOT interchangeable. Verify your engine is RWD SR20 with VTC before ordering.

VTC (Variable Timing Control):

VTC-equipped SR20 engines have additional components on the valve cover that require specific gaskets. This kit includes all necessary gaskets and seals for VTC-equipped engines. If your SR20 does not have VTC, you will need a different gasket kit.

Why Cometic?

Cometic Gasket is an industry leader in high-performance gasket manufacturing with decades of experience. Their gaskets are used by professional race teams and engine builders worldwide. Cometic's commitment to quality materials, precision manufacturing, and rigorous testing ensures their gaskets deliver reliable, leak-free performance.

When to Replace:

Replace your valve cover gasket if you notice:

  • Oil leaking from valve cover area
  • Oil seepage around valve cover perimeter
  • Burning oil smell from engine bay
  • Low oil levels requiring frequent top-ups
  • During engine rebuild or valve cover removal for any reason

Perfect For: SR20DE/SR20DET RWD engine owners experiencing valve cover leaks, performing engine maintenance, or building modified engines that require premium gaskets.

Pro Tip: When installing, clean all mating surfaces thoroughly with brake cleaner and inspect the valve cover for warping. A warped valve cover will leak even with a new gasket.

Essential Maintenance: Replacing worn valve cover gaskets prevents oil leaks, keeps your engine bay clean, and ensures proper engine operation.

Eliminate valve cover oil leaks with Cometic's premium multi-layer steel gasket kit - engineered for RWD SR20DE/SR20DET engines with VTC.
