bigbloodyturbo Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Planning on changing my HG and judging by the price of toyota stretch bolts i'm better off with ARP items, does anyone know of a UK supplier for these? Its a jspec TT. Can find plenty in the US but not so much in the UK that looks reputable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I would imagine PW can sort you out or google ARP uk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Are ARP cheaper than Stock Toyota? Have you asked Whifbitz? Why are you changing the gasket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 The Toyota bolts only need changing if they do not meet toyota spec, as most heads have never been off it is prob extremely rare to actually HAVE to change the bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbloodyturbo Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 Blew the headgasket last year whilst having a play with a mercedes that sounded like a Me109. Tried searching for ARP but it kept coming up with ARP in the states. I was also told by a friend that stretch bolts should just be changed instead of messing around with measuring them and re-using, how accurate that is I dont know. I will mail PW and see if he's got any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
