What do you guys plan to do with your tax return?

I want to be the irresponsible tuner that I am and blow it all off on the SR20 rebuild. But I'm not sure how that will go. I will be at least dropping a grand on it if I get as much as I did last year. Times for some OEM parts, micrometers, new turbo, and the likes. So basically just parts for the rebuild.

What about you?

I wonder how much more business these aftermarket stores get during tax season. I mean. We all look forward to it so we can purchase car parts, haha.

I wish I could, but I have so many parts lying around that I've yet to install. Who knows, I might owe this year. If not, I just bought a house, so it'll probably go towards that.

I'm not sure how much I'm getting since I just started working about 6 months ago... Hopefully enough so I can buy another dash, rear bumper and maybe new wheels...

Saving it all in my bank account that is labeled 300zx. I'm being very picky about the one I want. Must be 2 seater, t-tops, 5spd, twin turbo, mostly stock, tan interior, under 100k, and Ivory Pearl.

Probably pay little of credit card debt off.

Then look for Silvia OEM side skirts and maybe rear valances, save to get new bumper/skirts/valances put on along with painting my entire Coupe.

Aslo try to save for body work and paint on Vert.

All that will probably be 2+ years of tax returns though, much less house stuff and about time for tires on the G35 (19" tires suck).

My roommate owns one just like that haha. Only has suspension on it. NFS though...

Yeah, a wiser decision would be to pay off all my credit card, but it's not too much so I'm not that worried. Besides, I owe it to myself :D (So I tell myself)

If I get anything, it will most likely go towards getting a cage installed and possibly another pair of wheels.

I actually received a pretty penny. I am waiting for summer to begin buying my parts. With school and work right now, it won't help to be occupied with the motor.
