Guys , i just got my 5 speed, and im switching all my mods from my auto. i just need to know how tight i am supposed to torque the bolts in on the strut assembly. i cant really remember , and i dont want to snap the bolt, and i dont want my car to fall appart , so i figured i would ask people that know ... thanks .

thank you try serving your pics off another host, they arent coming in

MaximaRversion2

if you like that , wait till you see mine

p.s. What size are the bolts ? arent they 14mm on the bottom ?

RedMax95

sounds familiar, i didnt remember numbers, just test fit with a handful of sockets

Thats the plan ... I still havent taken the green to inspection yet, i took my red one to inspection before i lowered it, should having my car lowered be a problem with inspection ? i dont see how it should.

RedMax95

dunno, havent inspected my since i did it, though i dont think it will be a problem as long as they dont scrape it on something
