Wish I knew.

Another question guys...I cant find one of my pressure plate bolts. would it be ok for me to replace that one bolt with a regualr bolt from Ace hardware? I have heard they are weight matched or some ----...? any truth?

they are weight matched and a diffrent bolt will throw your crank out of ballance.

hmm ok. would it be ok to just buy 9 of the same bolt from ace and use them instead?

I don't think so, even if you get all the same, in reality, they are made with bigger tolerances and are not exactly the same. I would not risk it, it might be a bitch to go to the dealer and get one, but it would be worth it.

That sucks, i always say I'm going to grab a bucket to put all the bolts in, and never do either and end up losing some, but nothing that critical.

Someone's going to come in and prove me wrong, but I think you should get OEM replacement bolts. Hardware store bolts are most likely not correct for that type of application. You need to have faith that they won't break.

i THINK B AND D SERIES PP BOLTS ARE THE same arent they? If so, I can use one that I have as a spare...if not, I have to ORDER one from honda :-\
