You can either go to the junkyard or go to the nissan dealer. Just find it for a nissan sentra se-r with the sr20de. Doesnt matter which year it is. They are all the same.

But depending on the price from the dealer and how many you need, you might as well go aftermarket. Brian Crower spring and retainers are about 200 dollars.

he's talking about the keepers, not the retainers. BC doesn't come with keepers.
junkyard or dealer.

oh sorry about that. Yea I read it too fast. For keepers definately the dealership. It shouldnt be too expensive. Or just post on the WTB forums. Usually people have spare parts laying around.

Yeah, I already have BC cams, valves, springs, and retainers... The problem is that I need the keepers for two exhaust valves. Are the intake and exhaust keepers identical? I didn't think they were because of the difference in valve size..

I believe you cannot just buy 1 keeper at a time, you have to buy all.. Talk to justin at west covina.
