Hey,

A little bit weird but I need some new bolts for the GTR (and nuts) for my viscous fan coupling.

In the end the Bursons book said the R31 viscous coupling is compatible with R33's but it doesn't fit.

I mean you can bolt it on but the coupling will not clear the pulley behind it, some damage was done to the coupling so I can't take it back for a refund, new plan is to get longer bolts and space it out by 10 or 20mm to allow it to clear the pulley and get closer to the radiator (its sitting a few centimetres away).

Anyway, does anyone know a company that sells bolts on the weekend?

The bolts fit 10mm nuts on them, I need to find out the length which I will know soon.

I do plan to visit Supercheap and Autobarn but not sure if they have them. I know the Melbourne Bolt company is open Monday to Friday, anyone have any suggestions?

Regards,

Gareth

BJ Bearings.

Also theres a place that sells any kind of bolt imaginable on centre rd between springvale rd and westall rd. i go past it everyday on my way to work and they are a regular parts supplier for work but im stuffed if i can remember their name.

Also try Blackwoods but $$$ and i dunno if they are open.

A lot of places might be shut for the weekend dues to easter.

Cheers, Ron

i got 1000000000's of diff bolts from my gtst if anyone needs any car specific type ones

Haha, I'm looking for bolts that the fan viscous coupling attaches to but I need them to be longer than standard :D

So fit 10mm nuts and longer than standard.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions so far. Getting things during the week is hard because I work around 9-6:30PM most days and I want my skyline back now :blink:

Looks like there are studs on that pulley and its not going to be easily removed, I will have to delay to Monday now unless :D

Thanks for the help, but I need to find a way to make the R31 viscous coupling fit still....

I've started a new thread here about the issue:

There's a bolt place on Boundary Road, Melbourne Bolts or something like that. Travel west down Lower Dandenong Road towards Boundary Road, once you hit Boundary Road, turn left and the store will be on the right about 100-200m down the road. They should have everything you need.

Not too sure if they're open today, but if you're nearby, doesn't hurt to drop by.

lol i would of taken it back and said it didnt fit and say it was his fault they would of refunded for sure even if it was damaged abit, if they stated "it should fit"

Haha, I don't think its going to work. I've found a few posts on SAU about these fitting, I'm wondering if the other models of R33's are different to the RB26DETT setup on the front....
