I bought a cheap electric unit at Harbor Freight for about $60.

Thanks for the heads up, I hadn't noticed that!

I used this one.
JEGS Performance Products 80795 1/2'' Drive Lithium Powered Cordless Impact Wrench
Its great to take to the track when I swap out wheels, just finish off with a tq wrench. I even used it today to bust off a crank pulley bolt and locktited flywheel bolts on a motor I'm disassembling.
At the time I was able to price match by using harbor freight's item number, but I dont know if you can do that now. Even a corded unit from harbor freight would probably do for the job.

That Harborfreight one looks like a good deal for the price. Corded is fine for my purposes I believe. I'll look into that.

ive not done stud replacement on my Z, but my handy 18v milwaukee 3/8 drive is very handy for most work and more than plenty to pull the studs. (max 150ft/lbs).

Yes, I'm planning on doing stud replacement for all four wheels, figured might as well do all 4 just to keep everything consistent. I've heard its a complete pain to seat the studs by hand. A friend and I are planning on doing the install, and I'm just looking for whatever is cheap and can get the job done. I assume buying an impact driver would be cheaper than a shop, and I can take them off if desired.
