Blue Slip And Wheel Studs

[NeoLokie]

Well.. the DR is in getting blue slipped at the moment.. so.. wish me luck!!!

the other thing.. do dr's use the same wheel studs as an r30 or bluebird or something?

ie can I just get them from any old parts shop?

Thanks

I replaced two of my wheels studs with S13 studs, they were about 2 mm longer, but could hardly notice. You can buy them brand new from Nissan for about $6 each I think.

s13 200sx studs I assume you mean? ahhh cool

my biggest problem at the moment is getting wheelnuts for the trx wheels

Neo,

Ive used rear R31 wheel studs(5 mm longer than the stock ones) in my dato 1600.

Im pritty sure that most if not all nis/dat wheel studs are interchangable.

As for the TRX wheel nuts, You can either go to nissan and pay $8 per wheel nut or go to the wreckers and pay about $5/10 for a set.

The wheel nuts that are used on bluebirds with factory mags are the same as the TRX nuts.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

yeah.. nissan don't stock them any more, I'm going to go to a wrecker and go through boxes of wheel nuts.. just can't get them anywhere. the 5mm longer studs might mean a normal tapered nut can get s grip on the bastard though. and if they go straight in then brilliant. pity they're $8 each or something

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

with the trx rims i have i got old ford falcon nuts, there about 2" long and have a flat bottom, they work perfectly

aren't they a 1.5 mm thread pitch instead of the 1.25 of the skylines? but yeah I saw some today and they looked just right!!!

all i know is they fit on and stay on both my r31, on for about a year, and the r30 for the last 8 months..

[NeoLokie]

they don't f**k the threads or anything?

hmm... might have to go back to that wrecker
