as the topic asks, will r33 studs fit my rs4s?? my mehcanics apprentice snapped 2 of my studs fitting my 19's and has ordered r33 wheel studs as replacements and he "hopes they will fit" sigh. it took me 5 mins to find the nissan part number ni-43222-28b10 for c34 studs, but ive had no luck seeing if it matches the r33 part number.

any help is appreciated.

cheers.

umm....2 broken but not replacing the rest?

my guess is they overtightened the nuts and 2 broke. However, how do you know others were not overtightened/stretched/weakened but not broken?

I'd by very cautious....

they didnt put the wheels on, it was the 1st wheel they took off. the apprentice stuffed up hard. they are replacing all the studs on that wheel. what happend was the guy didnt do the nuts up by hand, he threw them on with the rattle gun straight up and cross threaded 4 out of the 5 studs and they were that f**ked that they studs snapped trying to get the wheel nuts back off.

retarded.

good to hear they are doing the right thing to fix it....lots of places would be more difficult or just try and change 2 before you notice. Or as I had in one case just leave 1 wheelstud snapped and hope you don't look at it.

Worked in the mechanical car industry for 10yrs, & I can tell everyone, I do as much as I can WITHOUT taking it to a workshop, even tyre changes, I just take the wheels in, alot of tyre fitters are worse than an apprentice mechanic!!!!!!! I just bought a set of "race" spec alloy wheel nuts (believe me I'm hesitant about using them), & will be checking they remain at 85ft/lbs (110nm) after every drive. My problem is that my front studs are M12x1.25, but the rears are M12x1.5.......My Stagea is a stock S2 RS FOUR S (LSD). Can anyone shed light on this (other that maybe it broke a stud or two & all that was available at the time of repair were the 1.5's before it sailed down under)?

Holy thread revival!

Anyhow i ordered wheel studs through Nissan for my SERIES 1 C34 Rs4 part number is ni-43222-28b10, they do not fit because the knurling part is too thick, can anyone help a brother out and give me a part number for a series 1? I know for certain the ones i have are for series 2 as i compared them with Chuckies off his S2.

Thanks for ay help

Hi mate, I am reasonably sure that the front and rear p/n are different (different size where they press into the hub) - did you get the right end? the front match something local and are readily available, the rears seem to be skyline and a bit trickier to find (but nissan have them in stock)

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
