Im trying to buy a set of a guy that was selling them on ebay. He wanted like 150 shipped. But has not got back to me with his adress. But there for a 26. They are studs and bolts. With a solid girdle and over 500hp arp's are a must. I hate using old bolts and streching them over and over.

Aaparently they are availble from ARP, you just need the part #, then a place like Jegs or Summit etc. to get them for you. I think ARP told me one time that if I bought direct from them, it would cost me more than I would pay thru Summit.... go figure....

Anyhoo, a part # is needed either way.... Anyone have it???

whats the reccomendation. when do i need to switch to arp headstuds? im still learning this whole thing with having a decently potent car.

going to run the stock turbo for the season. then upgrade to probably a GT30r. by then i'll do studs and headgasket. but its a learning process for me.

ive seen that but i refuse to pay that much for them, there is no way that they cost 215$.i want part numbers, and if i cant find them then i will find out what studs need to be used and post the p/n's for them because its just rapeage otherwise.

I agree and did you notice the little part about there is no part number for this kit because they worked the arp and did their homework. I personally think all of bnecustoms stuff is over priced.

yeah they overprice horribly, they charge 275?$ for a stock gasket kit when its 100$ at the dealer overthere in japan.also fwiw n1 oil pumps are like seriously 150$, not the 350 they charge.
