Has anyone found an alternative (such as another car using a T25 with a 2-bolt inlet) to finding the 2-bolt gasket besides ordering them online? I'm trying to finish up my car this week and can't wait for gaskets to come across the country.
Thanks in advance!

Make a gasket? Copper RTV?

I was trying to avoid using a liquid gasket. Seems unnecessarily messy.

It's only messy if you apply it like a dipshit. Like you said, it's only temporary until the proper gaskets arrive.
Buy gasket paper from your local parts store and make your own gasket.

True. Guess I'll go with this unless someone has a gasket from another OEM application. If I find another one at work tomorrow I'll post it, but it'll probably be liquid gasket.

Just grab some gasket material from any of the auto parts store for less than a few dollars and make your own. Takes about 3 minutes

I just ended up using some RTV. Worked well.

I read that the compressor gaskets wouldn't fit. Is this not the case?

According to Nissan FAST Maybe not, Kinda hard to believe . RB26 will work though.

Z won't work
And ultra gray, or DIY gaskets will work fine.
