home depot ain't gonna have it. esspecially not in brass fittings and what not. Go to a real hardware store and fine the size... then get it from McMasterCarr

well, i just wanted to take it there to find out what the threading was.

Steve at Stealthmode sent me what looks like an M8x1.5, but the threading is off and the diameter is too small. he's going to send me the right one, just have to find out what it is.

that's why im guessing an M10x1.25, but am not 100% positive.

no, its common knowledge that stealthmode fittings don't fit perfectly.

this being that they are standard, and you will probably never find the correct fitting.

just use the stock banjo bolt fitting (built in restrictor) and weld the stealthmode fitting to the end of it.
