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.

Just recently seen these lol Damn handy.

This little guy has helped me more than a few times now Mirror with LEDs on it so i can hold the mirror and a Ratchet,screw driver...what ever instead of having to hold a torch and the mirror

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

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
