the are m10 x 1.0 x 37mm

 

i ended up getting mine from japan, much cheaper than £10 per bolt from nissan!

 

Yeah ive got some Nismo ones sourced but i just needed to get some bolts to hold the flywheel on so i could get the damper off the other end done now :)

i just used a rachet strap with a bar wrapped round the front pulley to hold it still while i undid the crank bolt. it worked a treat for me.

I don't know if it's relevant, if you just want some temporary bolts, but the originals are 12.7 (think) high tensile, that's the only thing that makes them a bit tricky to get hold of, 8.8's are plentyfull, might be 12.8? I forget!!! Just thought i would tell ya mate, may be some use to you...

i just needed to get some M10 bolts in there to hold the flywheel steady so i could get the damper off the other end as its on the spare engine. All done now will be getting Nismo flywheel bolts much cheaper

best way to remove crank bolts by a zillion miles is of this variety

that's what i use, but with an airline, an impact wrench is by far THEE best thing i have ever bought! Knocks the bolts out, rather than snapping them with a big long bar...

Not sure if this would work on the 27mm damper bolt as the engine was turning and i needed to stop it :)

i bet it would mate..they dont "turn" them out..they shock them out with no turning force applied to the damper;)

yep ive used air tools before but with no heads on there is no resistance in the cylinders so i could turn the engine over with one finger
