Default What kind of bolts do I need....

What kind of bolts should I get to bolt my Nissan T3 turbo to my log style manifold? What size exactly and grade? I was going to get them at the Nissan dealer, but its pretty pricey and they don't even stock them.
Anybody?

goto the auto parts store and size some exhaust bolts up.

get the ones rated for high heat, they are kinda bronze coloured with black nuts..

also heat them up with a torch and then tighten them up while the manifold and turbo is cold. when they cool they will pull both toghther really tite, and they wont expand as much when the bolts are heated by the exhaust gases again.

good luck
