R34 Gtt Cam Cover Bolts

[34GeeTeeTee]

Hi Guys,

Craved Coatings has done an awesome job with my cam covers but i want to use some decent Allen key style bolts or something to dress up the engine bay a little bit as the factory bolts look like crap, tried the old and had no luck, there is companies offshore doing them but not the exact ones i am after... I downloaded this as an example -

These are the Cam Covers after Chris worked his magic -

If someone can steer me in the right direction it would be appreciated

I love those Gallery dress up bolts from the States. So dear though!

I'm sure if you took a sample bolt into a decent fasteners place, they would have something that'd work for you.

[34GeeTeeTee]

Yeah true, was hoping for a lazy solution though as I don't know where one is and also work generally prevents me from looking Mon-Fri etc...

I need to get some of these as well... and I love going to the bolt shop... They may even have a replacement for the rubber grommets (something similar atleast), you never know...

I'll let you know how I go if ya want...

[75coupe]

you are after the cam cover bolts and not the valley cover bolts right???

with allen key head yeah??? cause thats what I usually use on all my bolts where possible, looks neater...

Group buy on some bolts (Allen key style) in various colours?

Not sure if anywhere in Aus does colored bolts like this?

Silver would do me fine... Will have to look into the suggestions above ASAP

M6 x 30mm (or 25 cant remember)hex bolts for the cam covers and m5 x 15mm for the coil pack cover, cost me I think about 20 bux all up.

Just use a washer (Ill have a look in the shed at what size I used) to fill the hole in the coil cover and on the cam covers I just inverted the rubber grommet thingys so the washer partwas on top and added another underneath, otherwise the hex bolt will chew into the rubber.

I havent got my new coil cover back from Chris yet but it will be the samw deal with the M5's

EDIT: just went and checked the coil cover, m6 as well, not m5

Thanks Dave, that's the sort of info i was looking for Now i just gotta find a bloody bolt shop locally...

Dude give Bunnings a try, just make sure you get the stainless or high tensile ones and you'll be set. Just double checked the lengths, definately 25mm for the cam covers. You can also use them for the CAS as well if you want.

Oh yeh and I used a 1/4" flat washer (stainless).

Fwiw you can use m8 x15 or 20 for the fuel rail too and I can't remember the size for the tb, work out what ones you want to replace, flick me a pm and I'll get you pics of the packs so you can go and grab them all. I'm trying to convert all the bolts to hex type........just to annoy my tuner lol

I got all mine from bunnings so you can definetely get what you want there.

I didn't realise you were actually asking what size they were, I could have told you they were M6 straight up.

[DaveO74]

Jeebuz Matt is yours ready for tuning already?

Man Ive gotta pull my finger out and get mine finished

Yeah, size was one thing but more so who was using where and what options are available... I am happy to stick with bunnings as its easy and should look good

Its not ready...no...

But if i book it in ill have no excuse not to MAKE it ready... That's my plan anyhow Who is doing yours?

[DaveO74]

I'm building it, chris is coating everything (as you already know) and helping me out with the fabrication side of things cause I can't weld to save me life.

Yavuz at Unigroup is my tuner.

Just started a new job and have been catching the bus, which is shitting me so I've gotta get it going as it's now my daily.........dam it!!!
