Any recommendations?????

I was thinking of either
a) jamming the bolt in there and putting a poop load of jbweld.
b) using a thicker bolt
c) selling it and trying something else
B) thats going to make the thread worse on the nut side
C) thats cool i might buy it lol or trying something else is cool
what i suggest to you is getting a new bolt from toyota... and getting a tap and dye and re-threading that nut to take a new bolt if you still wana try using it..
bring it on wed. and ill check it out...

Does anyone have a tap and die or a helicoil I could use?
*On a side, I love the mmw rear brace!!!!!! I can turn with more confidence now. The car doesn't feel like its going to tip over. wonderful mod. Not sure if the front strut did much, but every little suspension mod helps, i'm sure. I should have done my suspension mods, monthsssssssssssssssssssss ago, dammit, lol.

I just had an epiphany
Next time, I get a car. I'm definitely doing suspension 1st, and speed later. I love going fast and all, but its so much more fun when I can turn with confidence, and know that it turns when I want it to.
I'm thinking of getting one of these:

I knew about each turbo technology individually. But it seems they've combined them. This probably spools up hella quick.

Charlie the unicorn is great lol
Ok guys, i dropped off the car today. While i was looking at it it appears as though the weapon-r header gets in the way of the goddamn gearbox which means it MIGHT have to be removed to get the gearbox out. If thats the case, im putting it back to stock, selling the weapon-r header and buying the DME one.

speaking of blue... joe, what's the name of that brake fluid your pop uses on the carrera? and can you find out how much is each bottle and how much fluids in it? cuz i wanna try the dot5 stuff from japan-land. but i wanna make sure im not getting screwed on price. They have a 1 liter bottle for like 25 bucks. and i dont know how much i would need to flush out the old fluid. any of you guys know?

cool thanks guys, gonna go pickup that tranny fluid.
^ for a complete flush and refill you'll need about 1500ml aka 3pints. I'm using the motul RBF600 stuff from the stoptech stage 2 kit, came with 3 bottles of the stuff at 500ml / 1 pint each.
