Pressure plate bolt part number?

I'm putting back my clutch in my 2003 G35 coupe, and we had a defective torque wrench and ended up breaking one of the pressure plate bolts. Does someone have the part number for this?
I presume I will need to go to the Infiniti dealer to get a replacement, I checked Oreillys, Autozone, Advanced Auto, and Napa, and no one seems to carry these in stock, even if they carry the clutch kits, no bolts.
I was hoping to get to this tomorrow, Sunday, but only if someone knows where else to get this bolt.

Thanks.

Nissan part number 30223-JA00A

EDIT: If you mangled one you should think about just replacing all 9, especially if you're confident the others were overtorqued.

Also, that bolt is used on ALL the VQ engines, DE/HR/VHR. I think it's even used on the 300ZX VG30.

thanks, the reason I was getting stymied was when I look it up, that part number will say something like "2006-2008 G35 only" or something like that.

So odd that it just should be everywhere then. I was surprised that yet again, no auto parts store carried it in stock today. I will have to order it. And, yes, I am with you, I am ordering a full set, because this thing broke with very little force. It was only the first round of tightening.

Also...just to verify:

Pressure plate should be like 11lbs all around, then about 25lbs final torque? Going to the Nissan dealer to replace all the bolts in the morning and it would be nice to slap those on correctly.

Manual transmission bolts I have a diagram as some are 55 and some are only 34 foot pounds or so:

Here's a link to the FSM, that way you're getting the correct values straight from Nissan. That picture is not correct, there's a 3rd length of bolt at the 3 o clock position if sitting in the driver seat and it's showing an incorrect pattern. Section EM - Engine Mechanical for your flywheel/flexplate bolts. Section CL - Clutch for the pressure plate bolts. Section MT - Manual Transmission (or AT - Automatic Transmission) for your bellhousing bolts.

https://www.nicoclub.com/infiniti-service-manuals

iirc the pressure plate was like 11 and 29 for the torque, it's a two step torque process and there's a specific pattern to it. The pressure plate bolts are in groups of 3 spaced around the circumference, first you do the middle of each 3, then pick the one on the left or right of those bolts, do them, then the final ones. Rinse/repeat for the second torque value.

Including the starter bolts, there’s 5 unique lengths and torque values for the transmission bolts.

Thank you. I had already forgot to start with the middle one on each for the rotation.
