Steve GT Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 What are all the bolts for? Jasey baby, I want some of your nuts!And bolts there part of my REPLACE EVERY BOLT PLAN. sick of taking off rusty bolts and using 20 cans of WD40 so new bolts all round sounds good to me. and hey riko you can have my nuts if you want. theres plenty to go around haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Ooh interesting, how much did all the bolts cost you? I wanna freshen up the engine bay with new ones! They're currently in a sorry state Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 do it will make a nice difference plus when you come to take them out again it will be much easier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oh my, all these nuts, I'm all hot and bothered I may have to duly oblige as well - I likewise I'm annoyed by the number of bolts I snap on the car; just snapped the second radiator support bolt, so it'll be zip tie time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 haha yeah its annoying isnt it thats why I've decided to replace as many bolts as i can to prevent it from happening. plus it looks nice too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Glad you got them all ok Steve and i hope they come in handy. Like i said i don't know what bolts will be of any use as all i have of a starbo is an engine, i have replaced a few little bolts here and there but not done a huge overhall like you. The nice thing about most of the bolts i sent you is they have loc tight on the threads so will go nice and tight. And like you said, most of them are black Hmmmm..... Demon Enterprises, quite like that, although Demon Developments sounds better, and then i can just shorten it to Double D Hope you get the clutch sorted soon Steve.Jason Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jason_l Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Jase i love youThem jubilees are awesome. just put them all on now. I've done a shit load of bolts too lol shes looking a lot better nowalso getting loads of things sprayed up too so lil update to come latercheers Jase and Demon Developmants No worries dude, glad i could help! Like i said before the jubalee clips where no use to me and because my intercooler pipework is getting welded together i don't need the joiners either. If you can get a socket onto the jubalee clips to tighten them then do it, you will get them so much tighter than using a flathead screwdriver!!!!!I would be a bit cautious using the hex head bolts on things that need to be uber tight as tightening with a allen key will never be as tight as with a spanner/socket. But for bolts around the engine bay, panels, dash etc they will be fine. I take it that they are a ok size then? The majority we have are the larger ones but i managed to find some smaller ones.Jason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 using them all dudeeven the tiny little ones have come in handy as i found out the other day the bumper had been tie wrapped on by pikeys whop owned it before me so now its getting some nice black nuts and bolts to go on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We had all the bolts donated from Stanner stair lifts. So you can be happy in the knowledge that your car will be granny powered Quote Link to post Share on other sites
