    I just quickly looked for a link. I didn't read it fully. That is a very good point^^.

    I have a $46 snap-on tool that is just for doing 4+ piston calipers. It spreads both pads and pushes all the pistons in at once. I do brakes all day at my job and all the brake tools come in handy when your doing full brake jobs in 1-2 hours and your making $100-$250 per brake job.


    BTW, where I work, we quoted a guy $1400 to do front pads, front rotors, and rear pads on a G35 w/ Brembo package.... THE DEALER QUOTED HIM $1800 for the exact same thing. Our new manager did a FULL brake job (all pads and rotors) on a g35 at one of our other stores and it was close to $2700!
