RB25DET NEO VCT Cam gear bolts

[Jezboosted]

Fired the Stagea up one morning to an awful racket as one of the VCT cam gear bolts has removed itself and began riding the gravitron.

The NEO VCT Cam gear uses M6 x 15mm - 0.75mm fine pitch bolts which are a grade 7 (8.8) tensile strength.

I'm having a hell of a hard time trying to find some to replace them.

Bolt/nut places can't help, Nissan don't offer them as a spare part, Engineering places want $25 per bolt to make them, and Andrew from KudosMotorsports is looking further into it for me which i highly appreciate.

Any ideas on where i can source some replacements ?

Maybe opportunity to get a Boost Doc adjustable VCT ring?

Thank you. Andrew from kudos suggested using this as well. 

I think it's the only logical option.

Thank you.
