[Touchdown038]

damn people who have enough spending cash to do that much **** in just a few months.... I wish I was older than in high school now.... lol

[Inabj2]

So far 8000 for the car including registration and tags.

95 dollars for first diagnostic. (car had some initial problems.)62 dollars for second diagnostic, (after the engine was for the most part rebuilt free of charge.)

So the total comes to $8157 so far. At least my car is fully paid for ...

And I have spent about another 1000 on other stuff. Fluids, filters, belts, hoses, gaskets, smog (200 bucks), replacement parts, and some labor for wiring.

I've probably got about $8000 into my car so far.

[Phax]

I'm not sure exactly how much I've paid up until this point.

92 S13 with blown engine and full suspension, plus new Z-rated tires - $2700

S13 SR20DET redtop clip - $2500

Water pump, gasket set, FSM - ~$300

Fidenza <sp?> flywheel and RPS clutch - ~$600

Greddy valve springs, HKS RAS, Greddy oilpan - ~$700

Bearing set, knock sensor, timing chain kit - ~$400

HKS 3" downpipe - ~$110

Ceramic coating various parts ~$250

Sold 72 Datsun 510 to mechanic +$700Sold blown KA24DE + trans to mechanic +$500Selling S13 front end body parts +$150

So far, not including labor, I'm about $6200 into the project. I figure labor will be between two and three grand. So, the whole deal should cost less than 10k... and a whole lot less than the ~$17k I was getting ready to spend on a '03 Sentra SE-R Spec-V.

Car: 200Engine: 1700performance parts: 2400and I'll still need quite a few things (exhaust, downpipe, blow off valve, guages, fuel pump, random tools, dyno tuning) to finish things up.

damn people who have enough spending cash to do that much **** in just a few months.... I wish I was older than in high school now.... lol

im in highschool and i have spent near $10,000 on my car. If your really into it you can use highschool to your advantage (for example, you have no bills to pay). You just have to get a solid job work there 5 days a week and save your money (cut as many expenses as possible like buying food when you can eat at home)

[ride4lame]

*I am also in high school, j-spec knows whats up. Bag lunches at school, work 5-6 days a week...it all adds up. I also just read that it costs 54 cents per mile driven now-a-days according to triple-a, so i am gonna cut down on as much driving as possible
