checkout these nuts!

no really...

I was researching parts for my car and found these guys

they are M6, 8mm nut, copper, with anti backoff crimpring.

they are made for a 88-89 e30 M3 BMW exhaust manifold

They would be perfect for thoes hard to install exhausts and other shit that always is a pain, and they wont rattle off, corrode or strip your threads!

they are about .35-55 cents a piece depending on dealer prices, and can be had at any BMW car dealership parts counter.

part number: 11621304755

the only issue is that most peeps dont carry a 8mm with them

Re: checkout these nuts!

wow. very nice. i'll have to try to get some. you should middle-man it and buy a bunch and sell them in packs of 10 or something. i'm lazy and i would by a 10 pack shipped to my door.

Re: checkout these nuts!

I'd also buy them if someone middle-manned them. I mean, I might buy them on my own, but that's a lot of work for a lazy person.

The link says they're 6mm?

Re: checkout these nuts!

yea M6 is the thread size of the internal threads

99% of stuff on a moped is m6

Re: checkout these nuts!

Third on buying them if you middle manned them. Those look great!

Re: checkout these nuts!

Wait now. Do you have an E30 M3?!

Re: checkout these nuts!

I have steel versions of those. The steel ones aren't so much anti-back-off, as they are anti-theft.

Once you install them, they are installed

They might as well just make nuts that come with little batteries and weld themselves into place.

Re: checkout these nuts!

cool, we want taller ones tho.

still, id give you 9 bucks shipped for 10 of those.

no idea who sells BMW's around here.

Re: checkout these nuts!

im waay to busy to pre package these things

any bmw dealer will have them

most you can call, buy over the phone nad have them ship them to you

Re: checkout these nuts!

God, the E30 is my all-time favorite M-car. Lucky guy.

Re: checkout these nuts!

A cool thing about them is that because they are 8mm hex they clear some of the more wide exhaust headers

Re: checkout these nuts!

yep, i think thats the biggest bonus

Re: checkout these nuts!

perfecto. thanks man...

Re: checkout these nuts!

As easy as Amazon. Source probably has all sizes. Kind of expensive though at about $.80 each/ pak of 25

Re: checkout these nuts!

If you want to do it the easy way, just do what VW does for its exhaust manifold nuts. just stick the nuts in a vice and make them oblong. THen you have crimp nuts and they will not back off.

Re: checkout these nuts!

the real question is...

how do i find a BMW dealer close to me?

Re: checkout these nuts!

www.bmw.com

Re: checkout these nuts!

i tried that, all they want is all my info so i can set up a test drive with them.
