Try your Nissan dealer...they're kinda weird bolts. Might be hard to find at other places!

I wouldn't suggest just getting any bolts, if you were going to do that, these are strengthened bolts specific to the torque that the flywheel recieves, a normal hardwear bolt will snap under these conditions,

xero,yes you are right... but if you could find the bolts with somewhere with the correct thread pitch you may have an alternative

at the moment there isnt one one so you must get new ones from nissan
