Poor sucker doesn't know what is about to hit him.

We'll welcome him to the club once he has tied the knot.

Kyle, come on Buddy share some coke..........

Kyle don't have a kid yet, I'm thinking of getting a DnD crew going on the side of my existing one since our main guy is a family man (3yo and newborn) and thus scheduling is unreliable hahaha

Also congrats man, welcome to engaged land. You might beat me to tying the knot!

So the bolts on my dump pipe to turbo outlet flange have come loose on my FG and I need to retighten them.

Is it best to go up from underneath or to remove the heat sheild and go in from the top?

On another subject, check out this neat Longacre oil filter cutter I got recently to keep an eye on my race motor.

Cost about $100 US landed from ebay and super easy to use.

Hello filter element !

Just what I want to see......nothing.

Massive wreck, rehabilitation will be massive too I imagine if no one died. Haven't read the article.

Yes that's Brad's car (Frostyboy) for sale. I'd love to buy it (Blue BF2 Phoon yesss)... but wouldn't have a house if I did. He has a silver R33 GTR and I'm not sure if he's sinking the cash into that or not.

Did it actually lift the head? I was there as supervising technician back at camp (got pics of Doug just after he got a bit of fence wire in the eye thanks to Frosty hahaha) when they re torqued the head studs as a precaution since he suspected it may have lifted a tiny bit (small evidence of coolant but wasn't 100%). He ran it again after that and I don't recall him saying it lifted. Not saying it didn't though as I was busy racing my own car at the same time. 230km/h weeeeeeee

Also the XFT writing is just a sticker that can be peeled off IIRC. Think it's already got a letter lifting off to get you started

Nice!! Better to be safe than sorry. That's a really nice F6, shame he's selling it as he looked after it well.

Yeah cheers boys lol. Let's not go getting ahead of ourselves here...We don't even live in the same state yet

Grats Kyle!

Luke - aidan --- this is the sh*t !!!

<p>Westrac Tocchi. Cat filter cutters are same/same but probably slightly cheaper.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>EDIT: longacre make some cool tools though. Great suspension setup bits.</p>

I wish I'd thought of Westrac.

I tried a couple of speedshops and the ones I tried didnt have them.

CMP said if they did have them, they'd be around $160 but no details of brand or model.

You know, the usual CMP DGAF sales technique.

I just did a search on ebay USA for oil filter cutter. Plenty of options there.

Im sure it'd do Z9 as its got lots of adjustment.
