Download the manual that is one of the stickies at the top. And for the rings, you can get them from any parts store. The rings are the same as for the CA18DE out of the '88 Nissan Pulsar NX SE.

And since I know it's going to come up...

The FWD CA18DE water pump out of the Pulsar doesn't work right. Get a water pump from a CA18ET out of an S12.

And if you want to know about flywheel bolts, there is a part number for ARP in the sticky. It's the first one in the list since people seem to ask about it all the time.
