First of all, searched under "new bolts for my engine rebuild" & "new bolts", wasn't much help. With that being said, I'm finishing up the rebuild on my KA24DE block, & want to use new hardware for any/every bolt that goes on the motor/trans. I know I may be able to source it through "BallerBolts" or "Dressupbolts" .com, however I'm not too fond of the reviews they've gotten. Additionally, I don't care for them to be fancy titanium burnt colored or matching bright colors. Shiny silver ones will do, whether I have to go to ace and source them or if someone knows of a reputable company that sells every nut/bolt I need from the valve cover to the p/s pump to the transmission/driveshaft bolts and everything in between. Hope this helps others in their rebuild as well if I haven't failed at searching for the thread I was seeking.

I have asked a friend that works at a nissan dealership about this and supposedly it doesn't exist as a kit. You would have to buy all of it individually.

I personally would try arp for the motor and take the others to various hardware stores and match them. It will be much cheaper than getting it all from a dealer.

I agree with n8rps13. Going to the dealer would be good for the hard to find bolts but if you need little things like valve cover bolts, just go to ace or other hardware stores and grab them.

I personally would just hit up the dealer for all your hardware needs.. You want the right grade and metal material for whatever you're trying to replace.. ACE Hardware / Home Depot / ETC. sometimes have inferior made in china stuff which corrodes easily.. Either way, it's your choice. You can also hit up a junk yard and salvage bolts there or find someone parting out a 240..
Maybe this kit can have some bolts that you may need:

pmed you about it. Also try arp i know a lot of honda people use them to clean up their engine bay but they are not cheap on some bolts with the 12 point.
