wheel nuts etc 3200gt

[mark taylor]

Hi all interested in replacing the wheel nuts on my 3200gt, as they are a little rusty, probably quicker, cheaper and easier than re-chroming etc...any ideas of a good place to buy?
Also is a 5 bar reading on the oil pressure guage normal...i believe it is fine and have been assured it is??

See the thread on stainless steel wheel bolts. They are cheaper than the original steel ones and are a high quality polished stainless replacement.

5 bar is perfectly normal.

Hi Mark,
Yes 5 Bar is normal and shows good pressure, it might drop to around 4 Bar when hot and on tick-over, that's normal. Start to look for issues if it falls below those figures.
The wheel nuts on Matts post are excellent, fit and forget S/S (Sprogs).
Cheers

Mark,
The one thing about stainless steel is that you will never have need to buy any more, carbon steels do rust, stainless does not, it might tarnish a bit but that's all. Fit and forget, that's worth the money.
