Yeah, that's it

A little pricey though, I was hoping it would be around $50-$60 bucks. Much better then using a hammer.

The price isn't too bad if you add in the cost of damaging a hub or bearing beating a stud out. If two people went in on one the price would be half. Just need to find a local or be willing to ship it to the second person.

There are a few tools which circulate on the NSX board which are not ones you would would want to own. I used the ABS bleeder for my NSX. You put your name on the list and the members just keep forwarding the tool. Not a bad deal until someone gets the tool and runs into issues getting their job done.

^ I was kinda tossing the same idea around in my head. We could start a 'tool co-op'.

I say 15mm front+rear will be perfect

Anyone know of a So-Cal shop that would do the install on the spacers?
Someone that has the proper stud press tool and not a hammer.

I'll check w/ my buddy who has a shop (local to you) to see if he uses tools rather than brute force for this kinda job.

Cobra,

My buddy also gets rough w/ it; he uses a hammer and forces the studs out. He said he's performed 50+ stud jobs and has never encounted issues. He does have a tool (more like a machine) that he uses but the labor costs render it too costly; he takes off the whole break assembly. He doesn't use anything like the e-bay tool mentioned above.

No, I'm installing some Eibach springs today, wanted to check clearance first, not sure if I'm going 15mm or 10mm in the front, will probably do those next week.
