Where to go for OEM parts?
I have searched some online sites for certain parts and well....they suck.
I bought a lot of OEM parts through STM and they have been great but I need a few things and I need them quick. By quick I mean by the end of the week. Some of the bolts, nuts, and studs I don't even see on the parts breakdowns.
For motorcycles I used BikeBandit, I wish there was a site (Mitsu) with such easy and detailed ordering info as they have.
What sites or dealers do you guys use?

For bolts and nuts I usually just hit up the hardware store. Just bring the broken bolt with you to get the right thread pitch and bolt size. Make sure you go to the metric section!

In this case I need the studs and nuts that go from the cylinder bracket to the lower part of the side motor mount and a few other pieces. I can't find one parts breajdown that even shows the studs or nuts.

Wish this was an option but my work schedule is all over the place and I don't know where I will be until the day before or how long I'll be there.

He is looking for a website that shows the oem breakdown WITH all the nuts, bolts, and washers. I am in the same boat as the OP. I havent found a website either. What I have been doing is either going to my local dealership or calling STM and talking with Brian. He has been great at helping me get what I need. Only problem with this is that most hardware is never in stock at the dealership so you have to wait.
You can search your local hardware stores for the nuts and bolts that you need the only thing to remember is alot of the nuts and bolts that attach to the engine and turbo are hardened steel and the big name stores dont carry hardened steel.

That is the same design as all the others. I eneded up talking to a dealership close to me and guess what.....I got 1 wrong bolt out of 7 pieces.
These sites are exactly what I am talking about. They are OK for parts....they suck for bolts and other hardware.
Try and find me the stud and nuts I am looking for? Don't bother cause they aren't anywhere to be found in any of those breakdowns.
Yes, I can go to the dealer but I would rather find them and order by part number.
I bought a lot of OEM parts through STM and they were great to deal with but there are times where I need it faster. In those cases I would rather order direct from the dealer instead of hounding Brian to get me my parts faster.
