Bah i got one of our unit people who is a mechanic to give me a hand with them cams, everything going well, and then bang, fkn broke a stud of I6 capstud, didnt even move a bit broke straight away, You would have a spare bearing stud would ya dan? i need one or know where i can get one, IE: repco?

if ya talkin cam bearing I can loan you one and you can replace it. I will need it next week tho.

And yes i followed the correct procedure blah blah blah in how to remove cams etc before ANYONE asks. Yes i have a torque wrench, i also have the manual and i took extra care etc etc didnt rush it....

Cheers

You won't be able to get one as they are line bored to match the head. The one you lend will not necessarily be the same as the one you get back

May not fit

Studs aren't available from anywhere really. You gotta use a M6 cap stud or something similar and tap the hole out to suit

You can helicoil too if you like

You can buy replacements for the rb26 the tomei ones, but i just need one not 28 of the fookers, and it happened to the intake or bearing cap I6 as numbered on them the one with the brass plate attached to it, and yes dan is correct about the bearings as there machined for that specific engine, looks as if it was going to break either way who ever did it as it broke almost instantly first slightest pressure on the damn thing....

Bit of stud broke inside :O thats what i thought about the stud theory should be able to just threadtech the old one out and replace the stud like any studs head manifolds etc

That what i thought too Adam.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
