Scare monger!! Have you seen what a grinder will do , not to mention in the hands of someone who doesnt use one often.

Yes, grinders are great at cutting things, principle design function if I'm not mistaken, I'm fairly sure an airsaw won't just bounce off flesh if you get in the way........they just stop quicker, but can still give a decent hack. Plus the thing is physically awkward to use in the confined space.

People need to take some responsibility for their actions, I suggested what worked perfectly fine for me as I'm not a complete retard and treat tools with respect, and if I've not used one before I'd get someone who is skilled at using it to do the job. Hence why if someone posted "the best way to do the job is on a lathe" I wouldn't be running out to give it a crack, as I have NFI how to use one and would end up getting clocked by a solid piece of metal.

Personally I'd be more concerned about him using a stanley knife to cut the soft foam, they don't know when to stop and so many people have bad technique it's not funny.

I gave him the easy rat and peanut butter option....

Did woodwork in school, everytime I used a lathe, I'd picture the tool I'm using being flicked around and stab myself in the head :unsure:

Though an easier and cleaner option I would think to be is just simply use a Stanley knife with blades like this:

Very clean and precise cut, those blades in the picture are much more stronger and firmer to work with compared to your packaging/box cutting knifes. Though it may take some time to slice through hard plastic (unless there is a metal frame that I don't know of).

I'd rather clean slice my finger off with that than having bits of me ending up like a meat pie.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
