ARP S14 flywheel bolts for 2002?

Recommended Posts

Just bought an aluminum flywheel and looking for replacement bolts, It's a 215 flywheel so they should be 22mm bolts. Anyone use ARP #201-2801. Listed for S14s but not 2002 though they are M12x1.5 and 22mm they should work but I don't like wasting money so anyone here have any experience?

Ahh, too late- the only reason to order the ARP bolt is if it's cheaper than the OEM part..

The stock bolt is plenty stout, and almost infinitely reusable if not damaged.

But do post back when they show up.

The M10 flywheel bolts can be reused.  In fact,

all the M10 fasteners can.

 

'Course, if it makes you feel better, why not?

As long as you're sure of the quality of what you're buying,

and ARP makes good fasteners.

Another possible drawback, ARP doesn't recommend threadlocker with their bolts, just their thread lubricant.  That scares me a bit.

 

They also say you should run a washer with an aluminum flywheel.  If you're using the stock bolts with threadlocker, not sure if it's needed, but it might not be a bad idea, assuming your bolts are long enough to compensate for the thickness of the washer.

you can reuse the OE flywheel screws but why would you want to when your fitting an Aluminum flywheel?                                                                                                                                   the new flywheel should have come with a flex plate and 10mm allen screws                                                                                                                                                                              you made a good choice ARP is an awesome product but there are always alot of puritans who think otherwise

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
