Front Strut bolt torque
Hi guys,
I forgot my technical book and do not have the torque for the front strut bolts of my 2005 STI.
By head I went 200Nm on the torque wrench.
That went ok for the bottom bolt, but for the top one I felt it was going wrong...
Those are new and coming from importcarparts, I am pretty sure it is my **** up... but I was not expecting this...
What is the torque?

Hum... If this is correct I was not that far.
Also I think the bolt would not even hold 175NM.
Went I saw 200 would not get reached I reduced it not sure if 175 was ok. But the bolt was already gone by then so...
