You will probly need to shock it. If you cant get hold of a rattle gun, put a socket and breaker bar on it, get someone to put weight on it and tap the prybar with a 5lbs Lump hammer. Not much else you can do.

Or, drive the car to a workshop, get them to rattle it loose, then just tighten it up to drive home. Piece of cake.

Just did this, this arvo on my charade turbo.

Fit the wheels, and make sure the center cap is off and car is on the ground, in gear and handbrake on.

Put breaker bar on and use a three meter long pole on the bar if you don't have a rattle gun.

Both came off easy :down:

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.

The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly.
