anyone please let me know if you know what it is. most cars i have ever done was around the 50 foot lbs range. i looked in the fsm and still couldnt find anything. i looked for days and could only find 1 person saying 11lbs plus 60 degrees ... that doesnt seem right at all. anyone on here knows or have done this before please help me out, once again i have a rb25det and they are stock studs. thanks

Just look for the RB25 engine manual and convert from newtons to ft lbs. The name of the PDF is R33 all engine maual.pdf or something like that.

That's what I don't get. Don't know what the Nm is. I don't know how to convert it. How is there not just a list of it somewhere

If you follow my above post you will find what your after in the engine FSM, the you can Google a converter. Nm or kgm to foot pound type in the numbers and your done.


Edit: Also I remember there being a list in the FSM it is by bolt size though. You are not just going to find a FSM with foot pounds because the engine never came out in the states.

Nm = Newton x meter

1 Newton = 0.22481 lb force

1 meter = 3.281 ft

calculate
