Just searching for torque figures for manifold studs and nuts. Not sure if I am reading the manual right, it says 27-31 nm for the studs, but what about the nuts? Will they be the same? Also I have a new gasket ready to go so I assume that has some give in it.

Well FML, one stud broke off leaving the thread in the head, another one is still in the head and doesn't want to move. Looks like Ill need a thread doctor...

Anyhow, since I am replacing all the exhaust studs, I was wondering should the exhaust manifold to turbo studs be replaced? Or the dump pipe studs? Or do people just replace the manifold studs and call it a day?

If I do get them out however, is there a specific stud for them? They look fairly similar to the exhaust studs in length, still 10x1.25mm

If your in sydbey I get you the studs from a contact I have ;)

Genuine nissan - roughly $60 for a set of studs!

      Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far

      The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????

      Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
