Exhaust Bolt?
So yesterday I was driving my Z and a super loud ding noise came from under the car. I expected nothing from it figured a rock hit it or something. But then, after a while the exhaust let off a very odd odor and so I jacked it up, and looked where the exhaust connects to the cat converter where the gasket is, and sure enough one of the bolts fell out. I'm guessing when I got the nismo exhaust installed on there the bolts just weren't tightened enough. Anyone know where I can get these bolts? I've called my local auto part stores and none of them say they have it. I'm pretty scared to drive it because I'm worried it's just gonna fall apart. Thanks for your time

M10x1.25x25 (maybe 30 or other, get under and measure).
And don't just buy bolts from Home Despot. You need at least Grade 5 bolts or figure on replacing them again in the future. The heat, combined with the torque on the pipes will loosen or snap them in due time. That said, I recommend just getting them from Nissan.
