so basically, i tried a nut onto the a stud in the manifold and then left it for a few days, it rusted stuck and pulled the stud out with it. now i seem to have misplaced the stud.



is there anyway to find and buy a new one? i havent had any luck searching all around my workspace for the one i lost. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

the local hardware store or mazdatrix https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

mazdatrix! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

unless anyone knows the spec of a FD turbo mani std, cause if its m10 1.5 im in business, anybody? bueller?

just call them up and ask them they have and can get many things not on the website.\

fastenol is great too, lots off oddball tools

found the stud, got the nut off, and now the turbo is mostly bolted down.



the top front most nut is giving me hell, i mnaged to get it on finger tight somehow, but how the **** am i supposed to tighten it? the oil return line is in the way and i cant get a wrench in there worth ****.



any tips?

PS... I got my tII LEE!!! sorry to *****....
