Yep yep, my 'large'/ only toque wrench goes 20nm - 210nm so does everything but the small stuff.

Hey kael, I appreciate the list. Could you link me a example of a torque wrench that will work? I noticed they come in different sizes.

Oh and for the wheels you probably want to pick up a 21mm "deep socket" for the wheel nuts, to be torques back right. With regards to ratchet teeth, a socket ratchets in the opposing direction to force, so the higher the ratchet teeth the less distance is moves backwards before ratcheting....

Apparently mud guards didn't come as standard on the T-spec pathy in this country, and mine doesn't have them... So after getting pissed of with road dirt streaks up the side doors and rain water whooshing around the back window like a vortex, I stumped up for an OEM set of mud guards. They are part...

Found a nifty set here: http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Set-of-4-Tailgate-Rear-Window-Glass-Gas-Struts-for-Nissan-Pathfinder-R51-05-13-/181682466414?txnId=1483141631008 That includes al...

So now i have not only bluetooth audio in the mutes the radio, i can ha...
