Fasteners

****NOTE!**** No longer selling fasteners, if you're in the US then go to www.mcmaster.com to buy anything you can think of and more regarding hardware store type stuff. Use the measurements provided on this page to know what you need to get. Some things might only come in bigger quantities, so offer them to your friends too! FYI, you can never have enough M8 nuts and washers.

As you can probably tell, I LOVE to use stainless steel fasteners wherever I can on my cars. The obvious benefit is that they don't rust, but there are many other high points as well. Because they don't rust, they won't seize in the hole or on the stud. They're always easy to install and remove, just crack it past the initial sticking point and they'll screw right out. All the fasteners are bright and shiny to begin with, and they keep looking that good forever. Bolts and nuts used around the turbo and exhaust will turn a really cool gold color after the first heat cycle. They are a lot more expensive than the typical steel ones, but these ones last a very very long time and stay looking and working perfectly. On my 242 I've never had to replace a stainless fastener, just install them once then re-use them time and time again. I've never broken a SS bolt, snapped a SS stud, or stripped a SS nut, certainly can't say the same about regular steel ones...
