some air connections always leak due to there design which is why i don’t use the cheap nitto ones that come with tools instead i use ryco style ones which have a diffrent shape and as far as i know seal better

think about what work your gonna do e.g. oil change and the odd repair job here and there if thats what your looking at then you don’t need a CO2 sensor socket you can get away with using a spanner and if you don’t have any obd codes on your car you don’t need a scanner and when you do you can borrow one from some were or wait till one is on special. why spend say $80 on a scanner thats gonna sit there for a month and them by the time you go to use it its on special for say $40-60 (prices will vary this is just an example)
jack stands and jacks if you gonna service you car will probbly work out cheaper to own then rent in the long run and think about what cars you may work on because the load capacity of the jack matters you can lift a 1 ton car with a 2 ton jack but you can’t lift a 2 ton car with a 1 tone jack that was bought for a 4 cylinder same thing with the stands
allan keys and torx sets will depend on the car some cars nearly only use torx etc and others don’t use any and if they are tools on sale you may need consider buying them. you can probble get away with not using a torque wrench unless your doing engine repair stuff etc
personally i think get a tool box you can add tools to kits will often come with what you will most likely need to start brand is a bit personal taste but buy a brand you trust to not break on you or round of nuts
i think that covers most of it

i removed the gearbox and it was because the shaft that the thrust bearing is on had dry grease so i cleaned it then regreased it and while it was of i put in a heavy duty clutch in and now its better than ever

i got in touch with jb tools he said he can’t get them with a au plug and he doesn’t know if it can run of U.S. 240v i’m just wondering because if it can i can just put on a new AU plug. but if it can’t i will need a transformer

if i remember right the reason you crack the bleeder when pushing the piston in is to not damage the abs unit as it can damages the internals you can get away with loosening the hose but if air gets in it will effect the breaking how badly depends on the amount of air in there
i personaly would not use heat to loosen the bleeder as this may warp the metal affecting the clearenses
