where to get the impossibly hard to find exhaust/turbo studs for Gen 3, got them in the mail today! Options

[match220]

I have been searching for these things everywhere. Called every dealer (nissan chevy, honda, toyota, etc), every auto parts store, even the diesel auto parts stores, online nut and bolt stores, and hardware stores. Nothing. I looked everywhere I could online, not even a glimmer of light. The studs in question are m12/1.25 step down studs. You thread the m12 side into the manifold and the m10 side slips through the turbo. The only option other than to buy them in Japan is to have them specially made..that is until now!!!! These are made for a landcruiser manifold swap. The smaller landcruiser manifold has m12 studs, the larger manifold has m10 studs, if you want the larger manifold, you need to buy these studs to step down the thread size. Specter off-road parts sells them. No one else, and I stand by that. I got them in 3 days after I ordered them. Part number 044-02x.

Can a mod pin this in case someone in the future needs them? That way they don't have to go through everything I went through?
