Harbor freight is offering one for 9.99. Could it be a scam....?

I sure wouldn't rely on them for being consistent and reliable.

It's a case of getting what you pay for, or half price. SB good enough for re and reing sets on rims. I'd take it to a shop for final touch. I bought one at CT 5 years ago and it's still in the package. Still, it's comforting to know I could if I chose to.

Right you are Wayne. It seems to be of poorer quality than the CT one, but CT doesn't have one on sale currently. Would be good to see you once the snow's gone and before the Ribfest.

Can't fault you for your memory Wayne.WE were, we didn't, we definitely will this year. Feeling much better and got the air ride off the G so I'm not bothered by the gauges or compressor randomly going off. Enjoying the G all over again.
BTW, Nan saw your avitar and really likes it ........ thanks, or rather my banker thanks you.

Hey Wayne(s),

I was just up at Simone Performance on Tuesday. Vic mentioned to me that they are going to do something for their 10th anniversary and I think it will be for all the G35 crew. Date to be announced later..

I'm in.

I need a case of Motul oil for the car and I know Vic can get it for me.

Can't wait.
