Yeah you can use standard head bolts no problem.
Ah confused now so wait if i use standard headbolts on my athena gasket it will be fine??
Has this been tried & tested from any other members if anyone could confirm???
Also i may be gettin a 1.4mm gasket to lower compression even more again back to my 1st question ???
Thanks!
Stock bolts will be fine with both gaskets. .2/.4mm will make absolutly no difference whatsover.
People upgrade to ARPs for added strength, when running serious boost/power etc.
The Athena will take 1 bar when fitted correctly no problem. Stock bolts will work ok, but if you are going to buy new ones from Toyota they are about £80, ARP are about £30 more and can be reused at least once.
