Which bolts are included in the R35 titanium engine bolt kit?

The kit contains 88 titanium fasteners: 20 valve cover bolts, 2 oil fill neck nuts, 2 cam sensor bolts, 6 coil pack bolts, 8 M8 lower front cover bolts, 8 M10 mid front cover bolts, 20 M6 front cover and VTC cover bolts, 2 ground bolts and 20 M6 front cover bolts, all in the finish selected.

Is the Bolt Hardware Kit for R35 worth it for weight savings?

The weight saved by the T1 Bolt Hardware Kit for R35 is real but modest, since titanium weighs a little over half as much as steel and these are small fasteners. Most owners choose it for appearance and corrosion resistance on a show-quality engine bay, with the lighter top end as a bonus rather than a measurable performance gain.

What finishes are available for the GT1R titanium hardware?

T1 Race Development offers the kit in Raw Titanium, Black PVD and Iridescent Titanium. Every finish contains the same 88 fasteners at the same price, so the choice comes down to the look of the engine bay, for example Black PVD alongside dark covers or Raw Titanium for a natural metal appearance.

Does titanium engine hardware corrode?

Titanium does not rust, which is one reason it is chosen for exposed engine bay hardware, and it keeps a clean appearance through washing and wet weather far better than plated steel fasteners. On the Black PVD version the coating supplies the color, while the titanium underneath offers the same resistance to corrosion as the raw finish.

Can the titanium hardware kit be installed at home?

Yes, by a careful owner with basic tools. The fasteners replace existing valve cover, coil pack, sensor, ground and front cover bolts, so no machining is involved. Work one area at a time so each bolt returns to its own location, follow the factory torque values, and take care with the small M6 fasteners threading into aluminum.

Description

T1 Race Development GT1R Titanium Engine Bolt Hardware Kit for R35 Nissan GT-R

T1 Race Development’s GT1R Titanium Engine Bolt Hardware Kit for R35 Nissan GT-R replaces 88 of the fasteners on the top and front of the VR38DETT, from the 20 valve cover bolts to the coil pack, cam sensor and timing cover hardware, with titanium. The metal weighs a little over half as much as steel and does not rust, so the engine sheds a little weight and the hardware stays clean through years of heat and washing. It is the finishing detail for an engine bay that will be opened for an audience as often as for maintenance.

Finish Options

T1 offers the kit in three finishes with identical contents and pricing. Raw Titanium shows the natural grey of the metal. Black PVD carries a hard physical vapor deposition coating for a dark finish that suits black covers and intake pipes. Iridescent Titanium adds a colored iridescent finish for builds where the hardware is meant to be noticed.

About T1 Race Development

T1 Race Development was founded in Texas in 2005 by Tony Palo, whose 2000 Acura Integra GSR became the first eight-second front-wheel-drive street car before the shop turned its attention to the Nissan GT-R. T1 went on to become the first to exceed 230 mph in the half mile in a GT-R and the first to make 2,400 whp from the VR38DETT, and it now develops engines, drivetrain parts and complete builds for the R35 GT-R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi R8.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
