CV Bolts for 911, 914, 924, 931, 924S, 944, 951, 968, 928 & BMW2002
There
have been multiple reports of CV bolts failing or losing tension on the
914, 924 and 944, particularly for track use. The OEM units are
designed as
a stretch bolt, and must be replaced after each use. In addition, CV
grease in the threads of the stub axles may contribute to the problem.
Stage8's patented GrooveLok system eliminates the concern entirely and
are much easier to secure than safety wire.

AVAILABLE! Locking Exhaust Nut
Kit for 931
Suitable
for all 931. Kit contains:
- QTY
16: M8x1.25 nuts and E-clips (for manifold-to-head, jpipe-to-wastegate,
and wastegate-to-dump pipe)
- QTY
9: M10x1.50 nuts and E-clips (for manifold-to-turbine,
turbine-to-jpipe, and turbine-to-main exhaust pipe)
These
high quality header kits are made from high quality, heat resistant
stainless steel. Even when using
conventional locking copper nuts, the studs can
still back out, particularly on three bolt flange that attaches the
turbine housing to the manifold. Once this occurs, one or more studs
will often fall out, and are almost impossible to replace with the
engine in situ. Loose exhaust hardware leads to
exhaust leaks,
boost leaks, inefficiency of the turbo due to heat loss, and additional
stress on the manifold which can lead to the infamous cracked exhaust
manifold on the 931. COMING
