Ah f**k, spinning sleeves are a t**t. You need the other kind of locking nut remover. It has a metal insert that moulds to the lock pattern with a bit of persuasion, then you use an impact drive to shock it out.

I've dropped it from chest height, granted with a case but frankly more fool you for not protecting it a bit.

Ever seen an easy out? They do a reverse version which is a socket. I'm not sure of the proper name ATM as I'm half cut, but that's what I've used before.

I really don't know how people smash them up. I drop my phone a lot, use it when fixing cars, keep it in my pocket at work (as a mechanical fitter at a powerstation, so plenty of force gets put into it) and touch wood I've not even scratched it.

Buy those SSR meshes I linked earlier, otherwise I'll have to somehow persuade Soph she actually wants an MX5.

Page 45 of this month's Banzai, top right corner. Image of a red MX5 on white BBS. Your car is in the background.

CPLs are like wearing sunglasses. I love them for shooting cars.

Jap plate but UK/US headlights?

Launching at Santa Pod is what kills them for my mate, well, it usually finishes them off after a few 1000 miles.

So does my mate's PD130, which is running some huge ass turbo. Before the new turbo it was 240bhp and about 400lbft or something stupid, f**k knows what it's making now. Enough to strip gearboxes and smash engine mounts anyway.

Ah the old "park my car on a slope to make it look low" image. Priceless.

Wangan racing probably.

Looks terrible, even manages to make Meisters look like ass.

Seeing as people run 300+ bhp through welders on drift days, I think you'll struggle to smash the welds!

Ah be reet, should have just gone without food for a while!

14x6, and you moaned at those SSR meshes being 8s!

There's one in my village, E30 touring in white with the blue and red pinstriping, and an E30 M3 4 pot in it.

Cheers lads.

Bought the 18-105VR kit, would have preferred the 18-200mm but this cost more than enough lol.

Speaking of the Chuki, I shall ***** this here. Not even clean, the wonders of a CPL filter! RX7 Side by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr

I've got the D7000. Really impressed, now shoot JPEG as I don't need the adjustment RAW gave for the D40. Only gripe is it not working as mass storage, so I currently have to use the D40 as I don't have a card reader. A couple of quick shots whilst I've been playing at home with it... Jack by...

You also get Chuki, which is "Middle Period". My 7 is a Chuki in JP.

Fresh as it was a year ago, and I have it in my pocket with keys etc, and lean on it at work too.

Zenki means Early period, Kouki means Later period, in a loose translation.

Estoril looks cool in Matte.

Ah yeah. Hmmm, I don't think a machine polish will change that, it does seem the wrong shade.

LOL cheers Jim.

Paint looked good at a glance anyway Jim!

Cool as hell. I wish we had stuff like this closer by, it's always interesting.

Blackhole brought the Mazda up a treat, even after polishing. It is flat black mind.
