Guest Enzo Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 how thick is it bro? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 i cant understand why lots of fte owners go for the trd one, as its designed for a n/a, and is .6 mm..has anyone ever ran one with decent boost, as i reckon it would det. pretty easily, when you start turning up the boost.

Glanza-Love Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 lol its actualy a 4efte gasket mate. and yes its the standard 0.6mm as the normal OE size...so no you wont get bad det buddy. its a metal gasket designed for higher comp and higher temps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Love Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Just FYI lads.."TRD Head Gasket designed for the EP82 and EP91 Starlet 4E-FTE engine.The head gasket is standard bore and has a thickness of 0.6mm.The items are designed to raise compression and withstand increased cylinder pressure and temperatures on built up engines."lets you all know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 ^ if the gasket is standard thickness, which you say is .6 mm how does it raise compression then?That quote is also off TD's website, so they have said its for an FTE not TRD...On the TRD site, i can only see FE ones listed...So its either a FE gasket, and youve been told its a FTE one, or they make an FTE one thats not listed on the TRD website, which is strange as all of the other stuff is..EDIT, here are the part numbers for the gaskets (n/a), may be worth comparing to yours...i reckon it will be the same as one of these11115-EP801 0.6mm11115-EP810 0.5mm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
