Does anyone know for sure why the hell is there such a huge price difference between the 90-93 and the 94 Engine Gasket Kit found here: http://www.courtesyparts.com/kb_search_ ... 83_884_886

ThanksAnton

im not positive but i believe its the lower intake gaskets that make the differance the early style ones are around $80 a peice (need 2) and the newer style are more around $20 or so. make sure you buy the right gaskets

the 94 kit is $150 more then the 90-93 kit, thats what puzzles me, its a pretty huge diff. and if the newer one is cheaper then why is the kit more expensive?

I already found what I was looking for on courtseyparts, the thing is that there is a huge difference in price, I'm buying off-brand gaskets cause they are waaaay cheaper than the nissan kit and since the engine will be rebuilt again in a few years anyway but I just wanted to know if the price diff is waranted by something or if this is nissan just f***ing around with their prices like they have on other components in the past.
