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..

Paul.

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 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.

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!

      R33 gtst gearbox top barb

      Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
