Default Lexus Valve Adusting Tool

Dang, I didn't know it was that easy.
I know, no Ebay links.
At what milage do you go for a valve adjustment?
Some of the brave folks will try this at home?
From looking at the video doesn't look to hard.

$65.00
Bolts in place of a cam cap and compresses two lifters at once.
Works on the 2VZFE, 3VZFE, 1MZFE & the 1UZFE Engines

The comapanies website lists the whole machine tool as $374.95

Anyone else have any more info on this?

If this is the same shop that did my timing belt on PCH, I'd look out for these guys. They charged me almost what the dealer wanted for a belt change/water pump replacement, and didn't even use toyota parts.

I have not done this on a Lexus, but I've done the adjustment honda prelude, pretty easy, I did it w/o any tool, just valve the measuring tool ($5) Also so tighten the valve alittle more than specs to advance engine alittle bit.

(honda tool to do this is $15)
How much is this guy asking? 65?
