Turbo manifold Bolt broken!

[awd-drifter]

I havent driven the GVR4 for about 2 weeks ( ) and i checked out my engine just because i missed it so much. I was just looking around and saw that ONE bolt holding the turbo to the exhaust manifold broke! i havent been driving it because of a ripped brake line. ugh...i miss driving it. Well, anyways, where do you guys recommend buying 1 turbo manifold bolt? i will have pics of it tommorow. thanks!

Getting the bolt is easy, go to Mitsu. Getting the old bolt out might be the fun part! Those things are damn hard. Hopefully some of it is sticking out and you can get a good vice grip on it to remove it.

JET, you saved me with a few cases like this in years past! Hopefully it comes out easy man, otherwise just drive it on 3 and hope it doesn't leak :P

I know STM sells studs individually. http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/dsm/dsm_oem.htm

But, HANDLING fees bite.

Try something local like a dealer, or buy a bunch of parts.

Well it depends on how long the car is going to be down. If more than a couple days then drill the old one out and chase the threads. I had to do this once, it was a pain in the you know what, but it worked.

yeah...luckily it seemed like it unscrewed itself from the manifold so it isnt stuck down there. well...another question, should i use something so the new screw does not seize when i replace it?

anti-seize on them. If you need a bolt I have a ton on them

i used helio coils on my buddys car and arp studs and never striped or snap. make sure you tightin them down to torque spec.
