muhaha, new power tools!

Well, I began working on the brakes of the 350Z. I got to a part that required me to break-loose a bolt that holds the caliper bracket together. It was pretty tight and I couldn’t get it to budge. I started reading the service repair manual for my car, and I found out that the bolts are torqued to about 120ft/lbs.

I did some research, and finally decided to buy some air tools. I went to Lowes and Home Depot, and I ended up buying a Kobolt compressor with a 10gal. tank from Lowes along with a kit including Ingersoll-Rand impact wrench & ratchet set. It also included several impact sockets. It looks really fun to use :)
