Cometic Nissan VQ30DE/VQ35DE (Non VQ30DE-K) 96mm Bore LHS .045in MLS Head Gasket

What you get here is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket, specifically for the left side (LHS) of your Nissan VQ30DE or VQ35DE engine, not the VQ30DE-K variant. It's built with a 96mm bore and a compressed thickness of .045 inches, designed to seal your cylinder heads to the engine block effectively. This type of gasket is a solid choice for engines that are pushed a bit harder than stock, helping to maintain proper compression and prevent leaks.

Cometic builds these MLS gaskets using multiple layers of stainless steel. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a good seal even in tough conditions. This construction is strong and resists corrosion, making it suitable for mating aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks. Because they're multi-layer steel and coated, these gaskets don't require any additional sealants, which simplifies the installation process.

This gasket fits a wide range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including models like the Infiniti G35, Nissan 350Z, and Nissan Altima. It's a well-built component that helps ensure your engine runs smoothly and reliably.
