So I am missing one of the three exhuast nuts used at the header to downpipe flange. It has a 14 mm head and it looks like this one:

This website is in Austalia and I need this ASAP. Does anyone know where I can find a nut :) like this? Would it be a dumb idea to go to a local exhuast shop and ask? Here is an ebay auction of a similar nut but don't need 25 of them, not sure of the thread pitch either but assume this is the same one.

Any help would be appreciated.

You really don't need a special locking nut on exhaust... just go out an get yourself a 10x1.25 flange nut, or regular hex nut with a washer, throw in a 10mm lock washer if you really must.

go to your local auto zone and go to the bolts and nut section
look for M10-1.25 nut and they usually sell 4 nuts. locking ones two(swirlys on the nut so it wont come undone) with a reg hex nut it might come undone
u can get the bolt and 4 nut for like 5 bucks
i know cause i stripped 1 of the bolts and i had a exhaust leak 4 a while
just went to autozone and easy fix

^^You were right. I have never checked out the nuts and bolts section at Autozone, but they had exactly what i was looking for.
