About TOOLS

[zeagle]

I've tried the search function but after encoding "tools", more than 14 pages came out. I scanned through the first 5 pages but did not see any thread specifically about tools. If there is, I apologize since I do not have the luxury of going through the more than 9 other pages.

Anyways, maybe this thread can talk anything about tools related to automotive.

I am looking for a place to get a socket for a star type bolt specifically #8. Anyone knows where I can get this?

2. 6point star with center dowel (male: tamper prevention torx)

Wow! I'm learning here. I just bought new seats for my Swift. The mounting bolts for the seats uses torx type bolts. Based on info you gave, it has a 6 point star without center dowel T type.

yeah where can i get the torx bit with a hole in the middle?
ordinary non-tamperproof bits are cheap, lots of KYK in the malls (ace hardware, true value). but i've never seen a tamperproof bit yet.

for unbolting those pesky idle air control valves, throttle position sensors, and so forth..

we use the 6point torx here at the shop. these are perfect for the airbags.

the tamper proof is just the same as the ordinary torx except there is a hole in the middle. so you cannot insert the ordinary torx in a tamper proof torx.

try mo sa hans tools baka meron. kung wala, i can order it for you. but its quite expensive. japan kasi.

the first result set from RS


apparently it has one tamperproof bit. 330 pesos ain't bad.

all the other products are expensive, in the thousands.

psylocke, malapit lang RSComponents to my office (nasa multinational bancorporation sila). ever bought anything from them? marami akong gustong bilhin sa kanila pero i don't know if they entertain walk-ins.

I don't think you could walk-in. I do bank deposit to their BPI + 200 pesos for shipping. I've gotten some hard to find stuff from them like Luxeon LEDs and IR transceivers, etc...

Yeah some of their items are waaaaay overpriced. The R in RS actually stands for ripoff

[orly_andico]

*psylocke,

ganun ba.. yeah i noticed they have some really hard-to-find stuff. pero some of the stuff is overpriced (example: Hall sensor, 80+ petot sa kanila, tuwa na ako dun ha, turns out 18 petot sa Alexan).

pero considering merong 200 for shipping, dapat pala medyo malaki-laki ang bilhin mo sa kanila para worth it. how long ang delivery time nila? yung 200 pala pang-gas papuntang Raon hehehehe..

[Psylocke]

Delivery times are less than a week.

I only buy from RS when there's absolutely no way to get it locally....
