82 turbo z Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I've been to home depot four times now and even with a bolt that threaded in as reference I got some and didn't thread in wtf? I'm sick of the trips so hopefully you guys have an old turbo with them still on there that I could snag from someone. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler031734 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Home depot usually carry's "Standered" size hardware. You will need Metric. Call around hardware stores and see if they have a metric bolt isle. Bring your bolt with you and make sure your thread will mesh into the other one by putting the bolts opposite each other and lay the threads together. If they wont go in the whole length of the bolt, than its not the right one. Not 100% but from memory I thought it was a 8mmx1 pitch. not sure of the length. Good luck EDIT: I'm guessing the bolts your buying have dash marks on the head rather than a decimal number? That would confirm if this is your problem.

82 turbo z Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 I have been getting metric lol and the shitty thing was I brought a bolt that fit the turbo and checked it on the home depot thread thing and got that bolt but didn't work lol, but I will make another trip once again this week to hopefully get something that works.
