Broken Coilover Stud? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I was at a drift event last week and while under the hood I noticed one of my coilover strut nuts was loose, so I grabbed a wrench and went to tighten it back up. As soon as I got the wrench on, the entire stud and nut came off. Anyone know where I can get a replacement stud? They're megans on an s13 if that helps.

If you need studs before that, you can always see if the stock hat studs works untill you get the correct set from megan. If you have a daily anyway, if its a track car get the right studs from megan.

Yes, cause if you just have a daily, it doesn't matter if you have the correct parts for safe driving. Its not like your or other peoples lives are in danger. No need to do things correctly on a daily...

The mentality of 87% of people on this board...

If the stock studs work...they work. 87% of times stock equipment always surpasses aftermarket stuff in effectiveness and safety. Some people need a quick response to a problem....one that does not mean days of downtime. A stud is a stud they are basically if the fit they fit period.
