You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

sometimes air tools cant get those things off.
a cool trick that people recommend is to put your socket on a breaker bar, and wedge the bar against the floor. then blip the starter (pull out your efi fuse so the car dont start) a few times and use the torque of the starter to get the bolt off.

"sounds" scary, but it works.
but, if you have a lightweight flywheel, with a bolted on ring gear, like the fidanza, you do not want to do that. the shock of doing it can round out the bolt holes and ruin the flywheel.
