The HKS Throttle Body Gasket (23009-AK001) fits RB26DETT engines in Nissan Skyline GT-R models from 1989 to 2002. This metal gasket creates a tight seal between the throttle body and intake manifold to stop air leaks and maintain vacuum integrity. It supports tuned engines with increased boost while delivering consistent airflow for better response.
