[k_d]

3cyl or 4cyl rob? I drive them at work all the time. Not a bad little runabout, 3cyls are a bit rough in feel imo

[Got a Pulsar]

1.2L 3 cylinder.

Cracks me up, less than half the capacity and power, half the cylinders but sits on the same rpm at speed as the Liner.

[Humpty Dumpty]

Have you tried using quality ring spanner and then bashing it with a hammer. Once i tried jumping on a nut with long bar and snapped sockets, then inserted a ring spanner and bashed with those short fat 1 piece hammers and it came off smoothly. Just hold the bolt end with your hand to keep tension on the spanner. I now use this technique to get everything off works so well, and if hammer unavailable use the bottom of your fist.

[Verms]

you butchered some of the bolts on that corolla you had lol! hows the r34 going?

[Bratva]

Yeah that was with long bar/gradual torque method on seized bolts , but with hammer method i havent had one ruined bolt/nut and 100% success rate even on most seized bolts

Still drive the corolla by the way

R34 went in for tune in syd but some issues arose with exhaust leaks and wastegate fouling (stupid split dump pipe) but i fixed everything, all mods ready for the e85 tune.

Hows yours white r33 or did you get rid of it ?

Stupid question, but can anyone point me in the right direction for where to buy a can of compressed air? I assume they're available from places like Autopro etc though there might be a much cheaper option.
