Hub nut size for S Reg VTR and S Reg 1 ltr

[Reegs]

Hi
I am sure it is mentioned somewhere on here, but cant find the info. Need help to find the socket size for the driveshaft hub nut on a S Reg VTR and an S Red 1 ltr, as my friend is coming over tomorrow to crack them off for me, but as I dont have the right size, he will bring the right size if I can find out for him. Any help would be much appreciated?
Thanks. :-)

30mm mate on a vtr not sure about 1ltr but should be the same :y:

30mm. done to 250Nm torque. All nuts are the same size regardless of model.

Yup 30mm. Whats the best way to tighten the hub nuts back up, tried putting a screw driver in between the vented disks against the calipers but worried I might break the disks. I supposed this is the only way is it, or would it work if I put a wheel on one side, drop that side, and hopefully the drive shafts wont turn then?

Putting the wheel on the OTHER side wont help - you've got a diff ;)

If you've got wheels that have removable centre caps, it can sometimes be possible to drop the side that you're working on (with a wheel on obviously) and do the hub nut up through the wheel.

However, the standard way is to have someone in the car stamped on the brakes, car in gear. You shouldn't be able to overcome your brakes - if you can, that's a separate problem :p
