I used the cometic on the last rebuild and I'm using them again on this rebuild (I actually just ordered that exact kit you got the picture from on FR sport). The cometic gaskets are... leatherier, LOL!!! I think they're still paper, but they seem more durable and compressible than the Nissan gaskets.
The only bearings I will recommend are OEM Nissan (they're hard to get), Clevite 77's and ACL Race bearings. DO NOT get the ACL Duraglides. They're junk. If you get the Clevites or ACL Race, you will have to take the crank, block, and rods down to a machine shop and have them check the oil clearances. From experience, (I've spent about 8 hours total checking oil clearances on this motor down to .00005" and playing with bearings to get the clearances where I wanted them) stock size bearings won't necessarily give you the correct oil clearance on all bearing locations. The best example I can give is on my motor. The bore in the block for the #1 main bearing and the #1 main bearing journal on the crank just happened to work out so that the ONLY bearing that will give the correct oil clearance was a grade 0 Nissan bearing. Even then it was on the tight side of the acceptable range. And before you say something about plastigauge, that stuff is crap!!!! To check, I plastigauge everything, and then checked it with a digital bore gauge (accurate down to .00016" +/-). If I had followed the plastigauge, the #1 main journal showed tight, but OK. After I checked it with the bore gauge, it was below acceptable (.0005" too tight). If I had run it that way, I would have burned up a bearing. That being said, all of the clearances that the plastigauge said was well inside the OK range, were inside the OK range. So if you want, maybe get the Clevite 77's or the ACL Race bearings and plastigauge the clearances. If ANY of them are near the limit, get the clearances checked.
Another thing about plastigauge. There is only one type that should be used on our motors for our oil clearances, and It wasn't easy to find. NONE of the autoparts stores carried it. It's
I used the cometic on the last rebuild ... gauge PL-X. That site only carries it in huge quantities. To get a single 10 pack, I got it from ebay,
