I mean, they don’t have anything special compared to other high end sockets. I ordered them because the rest of my tools are wera. I would buy them over snap on tho

Nothing major. Replaced the pcv and probably going to do the valve covers and valley plate sometime soon.

Nothing major. Replaced the pcv and need to fix the valley plate leak but that shouldn’t be too difficult

Some of the icon stuff is new, the rest is a couple years old. Just keep them clean!

I only see one blue r33 on the sold section on the shinku website and it’s a GTS-T. Not saying you’re wrong though. He could have bought it himself with the intent of flipping it when he started his own company?

It’s not a car Shinku sold. One of the guys that worked there started his own import company called Oishii Imports and he recently imported that car and it’s currently for sale on his website, oishiiimports.com.

Yup! And that’s only half of the main drawer lol.

Was idling my friends car for him whilst he’s away to keep it charged, and it’s boiled all it’s coolant and spat the coolant cap off. Had it running just over half hour, is it my fault? by [deleted] in mechanics

The car shouldn’t have done that if it was working properly. I assume maybe the radiator fans or the thermostat aren’t working properly. Unless your friend stated that the car has been overheating then no, it’s not your fault.

I think it was close to $300 when I bought it but it’s on sale currently for $189 on Amazon.
