The ARP part numbers that JH provided are for the R-16 engine. These
studs are suitable for both the SAE and metric engines.
The original question was about a 2L engine. It seems that something
happened to the engine that caused the "Compression loss". If
hardened steel washers were used during assembly with either bolts or
studs and the head was torqued properly and then retorqued after
several heat cycles there should be no compression loss. There are
other components such as valves that could fail and cause compression
loss. A genuine Nissan head gasket will usually not fail in a short
time. It is necessary to have the block and the head flat within
factory limits in order to obtain reliable performance.
