Guest KDW Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I am building a complete 2jzgte (or actually complete MKIV engine bay) from scratch with all new hardware. I have NO used parts at all, every little part in the bay is being replaced with new parts (everything from the smallest clips, nuts, bolts, studs, brakcets, pumps.. well everything!) I wan't to use as much ARP hardware as possible, but they don't have any Supra specific fastener kits. And I really don't feel like ordering every OEM stud, nut & bolt just to get the meassurements. The block and head is already done and assembled with ARP main studs, head studs, and rod bolts.. There are many many other fasteners I can swap to ARP hardware, but it's difficult without OEM stuff to meassure the specs from. Intake Manifold studs/nuts Exhaust Manifold studs/nuts Motor mount nuts Water pump bolts Oil pump bolts Oil pan bolts Coil bracket bolts Alternator bolts Valve cover bolts Cam "brace" bolts (don't know the name but they hold the cams in place) Cam Gear bolts (the two big ones that mounts the gears to the cams) tensioner bracket bolts (both V belt and timing belt) Absorber bolts v160-to-motor bolts Starter bolts Wheel studs/nuts And pretty much everything else I could swap. And yes I know I probably won't benefit from much of this stuff, but I still want it I will even Paypal a £50 bounty if someone comes up with the GOLDEN info about this.. Not just on one or two items because then I would be out a £500 within 10 minutes probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luka-P Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 You're going to struggle there, most of the bolts are a fine pitch. Its going to be hard enough finding the right length and spec let alone with the right pitch. I dont know how extensive the ARP range is but I doubt they'll cover even half of the fasteners required. I dont think Ive come across many which are the same during the rebuild? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KDW Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Luka I know what you mean but ARP has a rather extensive collection to chose from. Afterall it's all they do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
