I have several hours involved in researching this topic. I have an RB25 I bought with RB26 valve covers already on it, but missing the center section. It also came with an RB26 back timing plate, which I have already modified to fit and installed. However, I am having a very difficult time finding part numbers for the RB26 center section on the valve covers and front timing cover. I see lots of posts and questions asked about the process of swapping. I am past that part. Does anybody know how to get (or actually have) the factory Nissan part numbers for these two pieces so I can finish the swap? Thanks in advance

expensive, i'm sure they have the part numbers, just not 'publicly' listed on there, i remember typing in part #'s for my 26 and it showed me to their site, but the part # wasn't displayed, just email/ask them

Thanks guys, I emailed Raw Brokerage and rhdjapan.

Coolwhip, I already have that schematic and took it Nissan a few days ago. They said they couldn't do anything with that part number. I also ordered t-top seals. He said on the microfiche it shows one part number, but when you click on it, it changes numbers completely. But thanks for the effort so much.

I'm waiting for their reply.

you have to mouse over the part code to get the full part number.

That's odd. I have the Adobe R33 manual and when I mouse over the part number, nothing happens.

I heard back from rhdjapan. My jaw hit the floor. They want $394 for the front timing cover and $370 for the coil pack cover. Those two together are what I paid for my entire RB25 motor.

I don't know where to go from this point

I might be able to track you down some (used) for a lot cheaper than that, but they still aren't easy to come b y. How much did you expect to pay for them?
