Half moon obstruction ring spanner - Take that you pesky inaccessible fourth turbo nut you! It's not quite perfect, still jams against the turbo front outlet, but better than nothing...

Talk about stealing one new thread thought you bastard,,,but I digress.

This little toy is way cool,,,this little puppy is a rivet gun and like a rivet gun can also rivet thread inserts and stud inserts as well and no it's not for loan unless you can roll my guards at the same time.

This baby has got me out of trouble lots of times. Think about the last time you couldn't undo that rear hub nut,,,front pulley bolt,,,diff pinion flange nut,,,ect,,,for me it easily removes my centre wheel nuts on the Radical when we have over-tightened them. Very sweet tool indeed. It now travels with me where ever I go racing.

Proudly supplied by Mark at "Medalist",,,he's also just happens to be one of the founding members of "Team Raceworx".

Thanks Marky.

damn straight....my favourite cool tool

besttool.jpg

for anyone that has not seen one....it is a 64x geared socket driver.

So you turn the handle 64 times for a single turn of the socket....but at the same time it puts in 64x the force.

You can undo absolutely anything with this.....just think a bolt or nut done up to 640nm (like an overtightened centrelock wheel nut) only takes 10nm and some time to undo

One I find handy quite regularly is my Narva LED torch (link: http://narva.com.au/products/browse/led-2, see item 71302).

It's super-bright (450 lumens for 4hrs), stays charged for ages if it's barely used, and even better that I got it for FREE!

Vice Grips: Great for undoing rounded nuts and bolts that someones buggered and holding hot exhaust parts, welding, oxy etc

post-28482-1276954663_thumb.png

Rubber Mallet: Awesome for beating crap out of something a hammer would normally destroy.

post-28482-1276954672_thumb.jpg

The Large Pry Bar: Very useful for prying things...separating engines from gearboxes, sliding out stubborn driveshafts, control arms etc

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?

      Starting again

      I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
