R33 strut bolt torque specs

Does anyone know the correct nm of torque for the bottom strut nut on a 33? Tried searching and looking in manuals but can't seem to find it. The 32 manual states around 120nm. Also the bolts are apparently 1 use only should I use a bit a loctite when reinstalling them?

Bottom strut mount on r33's is a pressed in stud not a bolt so is definitely not single use only. Yes use blue loctite when doing back up. They are around 65-70 lbs torque i believe, but there are exact numbers online somewhere, a full list for r34 which will be the same for r33.

I'd say 70ft-lb would pull the threads out nicely.

The R32 GT-R service manual states 29-40lb-ft as the correct torque for strut top nuts.
