I am not sure if the old bolts will work with the new timing chain kit. Check pictures see what I need.

Thanks

Looks like you're missing the second lower guide.

agreed. You're also missing the two bolts that go in the tensioner. the old tensioner is 100% plastic and thicker than the revised tensioner which is metal backed plastic.

Nissan part number for the bolts is 13075-40F10. (you'll need 2)

looks like you're missing a sprocket too, either crank sprocket or the intermediate sprocket that runs the chain in between the cam gears. I think it's the later you are missing.

So I need 2 bolts and second lower guide. I have all the old parts but do I need to replace the lower crank sprocket?

you dont HAVE to but it comes with most timing sets so people usually just replace it while they're in there anyway. I dont see there being a huge problem re-using the old one personally. Any second opinions?
