[Roadsters] Looking for brake bolts

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Neil,

They're a standard hardware item.  The Nissan Parts Manual doesn't list the 
size, but I'm guessing they're 1/4-28 hex head machine screws.  If you don't 
have any you can check, let me know and I'll try to find my brake part 
spares and check one for you.

I don't think the torque on these is particularly critical -- the threads 
are in carbon steel, so it's not like you'll strip them out unless you 
really lay into them.. These bolts should have split lock washers on them. 
Once you've compressed the lock washer, you're done.  Another little bit 
doesn't hurt, but it is not necessary to do much more than flatten the lock 
washer.
