I have a 1990 Fairway with a cracked cylinder head :sad:
I am trying to order one from the manufacture and want to make sure the OEM number they have matches the head I have now. Does anyone know what the number is? I believe the TD27 has 20MM injectors.
Many Thanks!

Wouldn't it be a lot cheaper to get hold of a secondhand one ? There are plenty of taxi breakers who should be able to help.

It would be, but unfortunately I'm a long distance away from the UK. Shipping will be twice what I plan to pay for the head so I want to make sure it's the right one.

Where abouts are you?. The same head was used on other Nissans so if you have breakers in your area you might be able to find a head.

I'm in Asia. I did find a new head but not sure it's the right one. Were all TD27 (20MM injectors) the same? I think it's for a 93 but I have a 1990.

hehe. I did talk to the seller before. It does have 20MM injectors so that narrowed it down. I ordered from another source and will find out in a few weeks when it finally arrives.
