As stated, 2 of the nuts that hold the turbo to my InlinePro (I know, its old school) mani is MIA. I was wondering if anyone knew the size so I could go over to Ace/Lowes/HomeDepot to get replacements... I should also probably get some lock washers or those star washers & maybe some loctite?

Thank you all!

remove one of the remaining two, catch a ride to the hardware store and match em up.

 

I knew someone was going to mention that!! lol... The remaining two are hard to reach because there's so much in the way.

 

i believe its m 1.5x30

 

I meant the nuts. But knowing 1.5x30 will help me pick the correct nuts.

M10x1.5

it could very well be M10x1.25 as well

 

M1.5X30 is in no way correct that would be a 1.5mm diameter bolt by 30mm length. that would be a screw that would hold together a large pair of sunglasses or something.

i dont know the size but if it is metric they are gonna be like 12x1.25 nuts or maybe 10x1.25 if thats not it could be 10x1.5 or 12x1.5 instead

one way to narrow it down. grab a 10mm wrench and a 12mm wrench. place around bolt which one fits snug? that will tell you the diameter of the bolt. the pitch 1.25 or 1.5 you will have to figure out. either by just bying nuts and trying or getting a pitch gauge of some sort. but i would just go buy the nuts since they are cheap

 

the studs should be 10mmx1.25mmx(not sure on the length)

so with that said you should get a nut that is 10mmx1.25mm thread

studs and nut size is M10x1.25

straight from the FAQ https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=373905
a 1.5 thread pitch is more common on larger bolts (ex: oil drain plug and o2 sensors)

Oil filter/drain is pretty much the ONLY 1.5 pitch bolts.

 

That is an awesome thread!! Thank you for posting it!!!!!!!!!


EDIT: On second note, I just had to make sure that what the thread said was correct...

10mmx1.25pitch... After checking with the bolts of my InlinePro mani, it's actually a 14mm nut. As far as the pitch, I will measure it against the bolts at the hardware store.

the head may be use a 14mm wrench, that does not mean it is not an M10 though.

exactly. the inside thread and pitch is how the nut is quoted.

 

Yeah found that out when I went to the hardware store... M10x1.25.

They only had these big sized hex nuts and flange ones. I took the flange ones for now. I then later found out that one of the bolt is gone too.... Damn. I may have to take the manifold down to inspect it and gain better access to all the bolts.

for me

 

to you indeed!


I gotta replace the damn bolt (1 of them).... Damn.

 

are you using bolts or studs? IIRC studs hold better. ive never had a problem on my revhard mani using bolts and lock washers though.
