Done a bit of a search but haven't come up with anything.

 

I'm going to try and put together a thread about bolt sizes, yes I know it's not the most interesting of threads but it's going to be one for the FAQ section. Everyone needs bolts at some stage whether it's changing them over for super bling bolts or just replacing broken/missing ones.

 

So I think it will be very useful if I can get something together which covers every bolt in the car. This is going to be a work in progress but I'm sure will be very useful and work out a lot cheaper if we know the size of the bolts we need. That way rather than buying Nissan bolts we can pick them up from screw fix or the like.

 

Once in place I can then maybe put together some packages if people are interested. i.e. The any visible bolt in the engine package and other packages alike.

 

This is not something I will be ordering and selling or making money out of, it's more of a get a list together and find the best suppliers, then put that list in the FAQ so people know what they need and where to get it from.

 

So if you know the size for any bolts that you have bought please post them here. The best format would be "thread size x length x head type".

 

i.e. "M8 x 45 x 10" or "M6 x 30 x Phillips"

 

Ones I know so far are:

 

Coilpack bolts x 24 = M8 x 1.25 x socket head cap screw

Throttle Cable Bots x 4 = M6 x 1 x 14mm socket head cap screw

Fuel line bolts (replaces fuel pipe screws) = M4 x 0.7 pitch x 16mm

handy ref point http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw/Bolt gives all the head types and M size relative to wrench size etc

 

good idea Stu

Good link chris, I'll have a read through that.

 

This is the sort of thing I would like to put together in the long run.

5mm Course thread ones hold in the fuel pump. and you need 8 of them.

The bolts that hold the brake callipers on are different between the nissan ones and the upgrade brembo ones.

 

The brembo ones are a courser thread than the nissan ones. Sorry don't know the exact sizes thread etc other than the fronts are 12mm and the rears are 10mm.
