Because it's easier and quicker, plus the last time I used a torque wrench at the track the wheel nuts kept coming loose even though they were tighter than normal, never had that problem with a gun.

Dafuq!? Anyway, replaced my rear shocks today, f*ck me it's only when you bolt new stuff on you realise how f*cked the old stuff was, back feels planted again.

I should never have left GC.

What the f*ck's going on in here?

Yeah track days are about to become the dog kennels reason for being, so portability is a must. Air tools will become a thing in the future once I get my car port built down the side of the house, but that's a way off yet.

Nice one mate, that looks ideal and it's not too pricey either.

I'm not a skin flint, but obviously i'd like to spend as little as possible for a good all round gun, it need to be able to do up wheels bolts so they don't come lose on track days, (using a torque wrench at CSF last year had them coming lose after 5 laps) and it needs to be able to get suborn...

Working on the driveway fills me with dread as I usually end up swearing at parts that won't unbolt, bleeding from my hands and generally feeling less than useless and not a real man when I inevitably give up and sulk, so rather than struggling away with hand tools or making @HMS Derv Destroyer...

He'll go as far as CSF17, then he'll go no further once I get hold of him.

Also 'A place to discuss and advice on tools and equient'?

F*ck you!

This place would be f*cked without me, it's also f*cked because of me but that's besides the point.

I'll lend you Knuckles after i've used it.

Yes they'll need a compressor. I didn't realise his post said 'air gun', I feel stupid now.

I don't have a Costco card or any friends, can I borrow yours and pretend to be Scott McKnuckles?

That sounds ideal and it's a reasonable price, sh*t like this is why we need a sub forum.

I was just wondering if anyone thought a tools and garage equipment sub forum in the technical section was a good idea? I need an impact gun and it crossed my mind that i'd have to start a thread in General Chat which didn't seem like the right place seeing as it's basically car related, i'd...

Should upset the Ferrari purists.

That should be fun.

So what engine does it have and what bhp is it?

It was a Testerossa in Outrun, the car in the pic is a 348 spider.

Road trip with surprisingly few breakdowns.

The Fabia splitter is very soft rubber/plastic, you'll easily be able to make it fit, you'll just have to trim the ends off once fitted, but we all have to do that regardless of what Mk2 Clio we have.

This should divide opinion, yes he's 'ruined' a Mk1, but it's also f*cking awesome!

I've been running my 98ron mapped car on 97ron for 7 years, never had a single problem with the engine. It's runs like sh*t on 95ron though, only done that 2 or 3 times because I was in arsehole of nowhere and needed fuel.

Great episode, car looked amazing at the end. Sadly it looks like you need a terminal illness these days in order to get you car restored, lucky b*stards! Oh wait....

I have an Espace V6 box, but the K-Tec style (Fatty) IK is the one most people go for, produces decent power and sounds pretty good too, this thread has all the relevant info and links to the parts you'll need...

I'll await your 'The light came back on' post.

Just checked my old invoice from BTM and it says 'removed aircon and replace with AC delete pulley'.

I'm not sure I didn't really look that hard, just looked at the writing on the belt and went from there.
