Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
I dont know what Marc has, but Pittsburg tools is a HB brand. Pete, PB also has some decent wrenches for $30. I have one from them I bought 3 years ago for $60, and still working awesome!
I have one I bought off a bum for $5. It was a Grainger brand, and has a lifetime warrantee on it. Also has a nice case.
BTW, you had offered Pete a set of your old Carbotechs. May I try them if you dont mind? I want to have a off track comparison to the CL RC-6 that I tried a few months ago. I really like those CLs as far as stopping power.

my torque wrench is a 15 dollar pep boys job and it works fine too.
probably my best buy from pep boys is my wired impact wrench. it was on clearance and was $30. chu and robert know what i'm talking about.

you sure it was the carbo's I offered him to use and not the DS2500's?
I found the XP-10 carbo's don't work as well unless you get the XP-8s in the rear to go along with them. Way too much front bias... its like the brake pedal is an instant ABS button.
I just ordered another set of XP10s for the front (along with some other goodies), you're welcome to try them out, but only under one condition... you have to try them on track!

I will be doing my first track day on RB products, thats something I feel I owe to the people supporting me.
you are welcome to try my carbos on track if you want. I would loan them to you on the street, but you won't be able to get a good feel for them there. Sign up for that NJMP event I told you about in Oct and we'll put them on your car. Since you'll already have time on the RB's from the week before @ Pocono it will be a good comparison between the two.

I'm going to set Pete G. up as my Ebay consultant!
I'm gonna order one of those torque wrenches off Ebay.
I gotta put on paypal money to good use.
Chu, stick with me on the ebay scene, you'll be alright kid.
STi parts are the ish, didn't you know that? Your just mad that I bought them and not you.
