Show original supplier description
The ARP 202-5801 Main Stud Kit is engineered to secure the main caps on Nissan/Datsun 3.5L VQ35 DOHC V6 engines, particularly those with 4-bolt main configurations. These studs are crafted from high-strength 8740 chrome moly steel, subjected to in-house heat treatment to achieve a tensile strength of 200,000 psi. ARP's precision J-form threads are rolled after the heat-treating process, resulting in fasteners with threads that are significantly stronger than conventional alternatives. Certain applications may also feature provisions for mounting windage trays, utilizing specially designed standoff studs and serrated lock nuts to ensure secure positioning and locking of the tray. The ARP 202-5801 main stud kit is a recommended upgrade for VQ engines, especially when targeting performance levels of 500rwhp and above, offering peace of mind through enhanced engine security. Compatibility: This kit is designed for Nissan VQ35 engines, including the VQ35DE, VQ35HR, and VQ37VHR variants found in models such as the Nissan 350Z, 370Z, Infiniti G35, and G37. Specific applications include 2003-2006 Infiniti G35 (Coupe and Sedan, with special note for RevUp, M/T Only in 2005-2006), and 2003-2006 Nissan 350Z (Convertible Roadster and Coupe, with special note for RevUp, M/T Only in 2005).
