STUDS from ARP, not bolts.
As far as headgaskets, the factory **** is good enough. Unless you want to pay through the *** buy one from Toda.

the current dealership replacement is a metal gasket like the one found on the GTR.

nothing. in a true sense there is no such thing as a performance headgasket. you can get head gaskets that space the head from the block to lower your compression ratio
