I need help with bolt under front strut

I’m 15 and I’m working on my 2013 g37 sedan. There’s a bolt under the front strut I’m trying to get off, can anyone help me. I removed the 3 littler bolts but it still won’t budge. I almost bent my breaker bar trying to move it.

EDIT: One more question, is it lefty loosely righty tighty? I dont want to be making a mistake.

Unless you live in southern MN, I probably cant come help you. If it is not physical help you are looking/asking for, then my 2 cents are:

1. Douse in PB blaster then leave alone for a few hours/overnight.
2. Come back and spray with PB blaster again. Threaten it saying you will be back in 1 hour to remove.
3. Arrive back 1 hour later with larger breaker bar and remove

In the U.S., 90% of bolts are Righty-Tighty, Lefty-Loosey (dont get me started on reverse threads, whole different animal you dont need to worry about)

If you are in Australia, the water flushes down the toilet opposite
