providing your head hasnt been skimmed too much a NISSAN headgasket will be fine. Patent ones are 99% SHIT

i think cometic do metal head gaskets for the s12, they are only 100 quid and come in a range of thicknesses. try apex performance as they deal in them.
They are widely used on the s13 and as far as i know no one has had a fault with one, and hopefully enough mine will be ok to lol
