Which oil pan gasket should I buy to replace the one on my CA18DET? Because in looking around I noticed that the FWD CA18DE from the usdm pulsar uses an all liquid gasket with a front and rear seal. But the CA18ET from the usdm rwd 200SX uses a 1 piece rubber gasket. I couldn't tell when I pulled the gasket off of my oil pan because there wasnt even a rear seal, so I don't know if it was a 1 piece or an all liquid. It seems as though both would work, but prehaps the 1 piece rubber one from the ET is the better route. Am I right on this? Post your opinions/personal setups, thanks.
