how did you pay for your swap?

[spider_slayer]

i got a silvia for my graduation present. it was that or college. i chose the car and i'll pay for college. the government has some good grants that i'm using right now so i figured it would be alot cheaper for me to pay for college then get a car loan

[WONit]

bought the car for $150 trans gone,and took out a 5k loan for the swap

[f150intally]

liquidated some under-performing stocks in my portfolio. Took the losses on my taxes and just paid cash for the blacktop.

Same way I afforded my Cusco Zero2 coilovers and the rest of my stuff, I starved myself, and spent as little as possible. Luckily I'm a super frugal individual, and I dont have any expensive tastes, other than automotive recreation.

[240sxHitman]

well i have a problem with my bottom end of my KA (crank,bearings....sumthing sounds loose but its drivable) and its gonna be in the thousands depending what it is (dont know the full damage yet) so i might be planning to get a loan drive ALL the way up to Heavy Throttle and let them do what they do best..........SR SWAPS!

[phreze]

I worked 38 hours a week every week for a year, not eatting out and not going to the movies or any dumb **** like that. I didn't buy any thing in till december when I bought my car and everything in my sig, put it on my credit card but paid for it 90% right away.
