special pressure plate bolts?
Hello I am doing the 95 civic d15b7 5 speed swap and already ordered the flywheel bolts. I need to know if the clutch prressure plate bolts are special design. Or can I just use bolts that fit

RE: special pressure plate bolts?
well not sure, but i would just buy new bolts. thats what i did when i replaced my clutch setup...
its cheap insurance because the fly wheel uses pretty fine thread.
id just sugest buying new OEM bolts all the way around for the clutch setup.
id asume they are hardened bolts, and also BE SURE to use LOCKTITE on the clutch bolts! with them ALWAYS SPINNING and the intense vibrations from the motor they can easily back out and loosen up... and its a HUGE PITA to pull the tranny/motor apart to access these bolts. dont cheap out on something so vital!
this is what mine look like...
