$350 to fit my extractors....
That's what my local exhaust shop is charging me.

What are your thoughts? Mine were "gtfo"

Is there any mod work or is it a straight fit. If there is no mod work then that is pricey but if he is going to be cutting and welding then that is probably about right.

RPW extractors..... straight fit....
Only reason I can't do it myself is because the nuts are so fukin tight that I nearly snap my friggen socket (think my forearm will snap before the socket).

leveredge is your friend try a longer breaker bar

Just buy a long bar, should be able to get one from super cheap for sweet f**k all. Its all about leverage my friend and the more you have the easier it is

bahahahha no fkn way.


High five

I have a bar about ..... yay long and put it over the handle of my socket and still couldn't get it to budge.
But yea...the bar is like 1m long lol

Time to hit the gym I think

You can have all the leverage but you'll also need a hoist to save motherloads of hour.

BUT

...then go ahead with jacks and axle stands and use all the leverage you want and have fun underneath there.

Dude I've been going to the gym 5 days a week for three years... I have an 8pack
So no, no gym lol. Maybe the nuts are just rusted in place lol

Molest with WD40/other lubricating sprays?

Ah, fair enough. Then just use your hands

Get the engine nice and hot then do it - if you can without getting burned that is. Once you have them moving douse them in WD40 and let the engine cool down again.

Rattle gun! Failing that, cold chisel!

Hmmmm gona get out the CRC and spray those mofo nuts till they're are nice and lubed up.
They better farkin come off or i'll melt them off with the oxy

Which nuts is it mosti? Is it the manifold to head or the manifold to downpipes?

Orrrrrr are they not actually on the car at all. Sorry to take this into the gutter, but you can read those last few posts in a number of ways........

just throwing this out there ( you do know witch way is to losen )

Manifold to down pipes. Haven't even attempted the manifold to head but I'm sure that will be just as lovely.

I think I just need a larger socket. With the one I use now, when i use the extension bar thing to reach the nut, it just friggen almost begins to bend when i pull on it with all my force so I'm guessing I'm losing a lot of loosening power through that haha.

Spray it with WD40 first.
