Just curious to see if anyone has tried to use an air hammer to push the frame in opposed to cutting it. Im putting my kit on and wanted to see if this is an option. not sure of how far it needs to be pushed in since i havnt gotten in there with it yet but just curious.

maybe someone at inline can chime in.

I used heat and a rubber mallet for my full race kit.

 

not sure if the full race needs to be cut more or less. i would rather just use the air hammer if possible

 

Well didn't use and air hammer but did use a 10 ton air pump, sorry don't know how you call it exactly in the US.
I'm using the GT3076R turbo and needed the space. I was able to get 1 cm op extra space.

 

that looks kinda hardcore. i was hoping to aheive this while the engine was in the car.

 

no way man, this is one of the strongest pieces of frame of the car.
first we used a 5 ton pump which would rip a Toyota Supra apart. It didn't even make a dent. With the 10 ton it took some time.
