I am trying to remove head bolts from a 85 pulser, they are a 12 sided star pattern that is pritty close to a 1/2, standard will not fit it and I can't find a 12 point torx socket. Does anyone know where I can get a tool to remove them? or what its called?

Go get a 1/2 breaker bar and a 14mm socket and a short extension.]
That should be all you need.

ummm...Well i'm not so sure a regular socket would work. On my 88 sentra with the e16 (which is what you probably have) i used a 12mm 12-point socket. I bought mine at sears, they're not that uncommon.

EDIT: wait? 12 point TORX what are you talking about? I'm assuming the bolts are normal 12 point heads, not like an allen bolt? Anyway...random fact of the day...If you are actually looking for a 12 point torx you can get them at autozone in the specialty tools isle, I had to use them to remove half shafts off a jetta. "tripple square bit"

Now that you say a 12mm socket.....uummm yeah thats what it was.

I remember thinking ..."damn thats a small bolt head to be used for something like that." But there are several of them tho.
