Update:

In case you are wondering what grade SS bolts are required to replace OEM bolts, I have learned that the weird markings on some OEM bolts are actually Nissan's OEM bolt grades. However, not all OEM bolts have these markings

Nissan OEM Bolt Grades:

7T ("7") = 8.8
9T ("9") = 9.8
10T ("10") = 10.9
12T ("12") = 12.9

CORRECTION:

Throttle body bolts are M6 x 55mm, they are NOT M6 x45mm

thanks for the sticky

plan on installing a polished upper plenum and a polished timing cover and want to replace old corroded ones for stainless steel ones.... what are the main bolts and screws i need to replace?

sorry for the noob question, just started researching and trying to find a shortcut to the answer. since I'm trading parts with Vivek id like to send him my old parts asap for him.

Great sticky

Does anyone know if 50mm or 60mm would work with a spacer? The bolts I'm looking at don't come in 55mm

Upper Plenum : ( 9 )6mm x 25mm - (3 )6mm x 45mm - ( 4 )6mm x 60mm - (2)6mm nuts
Using a plenum spacer, add 10mm to length to all bolts
Thanks!
I winded up buying the 60mm and they fit just fine with my 5/16" spacer.

You can use m6 bolts/nuts to replace those.

You can also buy dress up kits from R1 Autoworks

Bolts, 12-Point Head, Stainless 300, Polished, 6mm x 1.00 RH Thread, 25mm UHL

Is this correct for the timing cover?
