does anyone know who makes headerbolts that are
extended i have a broken bolt after putting on a header
and what extended studs for going turbo later on
i know arp makes lots of stuff like that but
i am having trouble finding info on it

 

so does anyone know the answer

 

let me guess did it break at the left side where the vtec solenoid is?

 

yea the greddy header has a thick flang
yea its the left one but it does not leak
i want to fix it next week but im having
trouble finding the parts i need
i could buy stock honda but whats
the point i want something stronger
i have seen extended studs on some cars
but cant find out where they got them

 

there's really no market for stronger header studs. either go buy another oem one, or go to any hardware store and get another stud or a bolt. doesn't really matter.

 

mines broke also at the same spot near the vtec solenid but mines is a LS tho. how do u get those out?

 

for some odd apparent reason it seems to always break at the same spot, It happened to 3 of my motors (2gs-r and 1si).

just a coincidence. i think it's because you have the most room to tighten with that bolt being that nothing is in the way, making it easy to overtighten. the space you have for all the others is a little more restrictive.

 

so i guess arp does not make anything
i did use a torque wrench on the bolts
but after i had installed it i went for a
drive then came back and checked all
the bolts with the wrench but as soon
as i put the wrench to it it just broke
off i didnt even use any presure

well if you have enough thread (doesn't sound like you do) you can take two nuts on 1st one upside-down then the other normal then tighten them agenst eachother then you can loosen it however if all of you threads are gone then I would take it to my machine shop (CWPence) and have them do it (prob. drill it out).

 

or u can get an angul head drill
and drill em out

 

i noticed my buddy who has a 2001 gsr has two bolts instead of studs for each side. His car doesn't have any mods on his car and he bought it from the dealership with it

 

u can drill it out and get an ez out bit and get it out that way, thats what i did for mine.

 

yea im know how to get them out
but i cant find any like arp extended studs
but i have seen em on other peoples
rides

 

ARP does make longer studs...

http://www.arp-bolts.com/media...8.pdf

The stock stud is 37mm long. However a set of 10 ARP studs is like $80.

 

try this http://www.lightningmotorsports.com

 

none of those links said what the bolts were called
does anyone know tha size or part number
i think i will try and give em a call

 

I sent you a direct link to the studs ARP sells. Find a dealer and buy them.

The stock stud is M8x1.25 and 37mm long.

 

when i have time im gonna change all of em out for bolts
these things are too weak
