I know that I'm pretty new around here, but bare with me. I'm looking to put together some tappet cover bolt kits which would include the following,

-20 Stainless Steel allen key button head bolts

-20 Rubber seals for the bolt

-20 Stainless steel washers.

I'm in the process of chasing up these parts with my supplier at the moment for my own car. I put together bolt kits for CBR250 for the fairings and screens. Now because I buy in bulk for my CBR kits it brings the price down a fair bit. I make a little money and I also sell them at a great price to CBR forum members.

To date I think i have sold about 50 or so bolt kits with no issues.

My questions are.

-Do the RB20,25 and 26 use the same bolts and the amount of them?

-How many people would be interested in kits? (more people keen, the cheaper it can become)

-What sort of price range would you guys be happy to pay for these kits? (considering that from what I have researched the rubber seals alone from nissan will set you back $30 for the 20 off them)

Here's a picture of what I had in mind.

Standard bolt compared to the original bolt.

Just an idea what it would look like fitted to the rubber seal.

A side profile and here you can see the difference in length of the bolt/shank and also the width of the shank.

I spoke to my supplier and I can't get a blot with a 7mm shank like the standard item.

The shank size on the stainless steel bolt shown is just over 8mm. That's why I would have to go with new washers/seals.

I'm looking for honest input and I will go ahead for bolts on my own car first. I know that these bolts are highly visible, but if your like me it's like the icing on the cake.

After viewing many engine bay pictures it just looks out of place with very beautiful detail/painted engine bays and crappy phillips head screws.

Looking forward to any feedback..

hehe hey studricho,

I am the dude from cbr forums who did the carbon fibre fairings recently :thumbsup: i noticed you had a skyline by the rb in your sig...

I am going to have to hit you up for some bolts for the bike soon and the car aswell.

those bolts look good. and i am pretty sure all rb's are the same. (slightly different bolt position) but i used all the bolts from my rb20 when I did my rb30det conversion using an rb26 head.

as for price i am not sure...

can never tell how much bolts are going to cost.

cheers!

I'll see what my supplier can do for us. Lol it sounds like we are talking about drugs.

I did like the carbon fairings, very nice. Yeah just PM me when your ready for the bolts.

I wouldn't be fitting stainless bolts to the alloy heads, as the reaction between the two metals causes them to gall the threads

True. You can use some anit sieze to prevent this or I may be able to get zinc plated screws.

Thanks for the parts number. Now to get some in and start chasing up what I can do...I'll keep you posted.

does anyone have the part number for the bolts that hold down the coil pack cover? and the 4 screws that hold the transistor unit onto the coil pack cover?

Good luck bruz! And when you find out, can you please tell me? I lost mine ages ago. Cable ties FTW!

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
