I did look at the adjuster this evening and it doesn't really want to turn any more. Doesn't help that the exhaust is in the way but it's almost like turning the large nut thing is trying to turn the cable, there's a fair bit of tension there. I guess I need a spanner or pipe grips?
Although it may sound silly, but you are trying to adjust with the handbrake OFF aren't you?
There should not be massive tension at all, you want it so the mechanism just starts moving then you want to back it off slightly, you can use a marker to mark the position in relation to the caliper body, to make this job easier.
