That is so true. Honestly I got lucky about how I ended up with my car and swap. I wrecked my previous car and got enough insurance money to where I could get the car and then almost immediately get my motor. I really hate how it always ends up that **** always ends up costing so much more than you planned. And saving never works, something always comes up and you end up having to save and save and save. Its almost like you have to save up $1500 for a $1000 mod...Structure240sx wrote:im 18 too and work my *** off for everything. nothin ever costs as much as u think it will. but if u are patient and serious you will get there.

Just my 2 cents worth....my first car was an '87 Buick Grand National. I owned it for 11 years, ended up with over 400 RWHP. I also had a '99 Mustang GT that I bought new to drive everyday. I sold the stang last year and drove the Buick daily until a month ago when I sold it to buy a loaded '96 240SX. The car had a few mods when I bought it, Apexi N1 single, Injen intake, H&R springs, Tokico blues, Brembo rotors. I just added a B&M shifter (I love it) b/c the stock one was just too sloppy. I owned a turbo car for 11 years, so, I'm pretty experienced in that field as well as engines and transmissions. I'm sticking with the KA and going turbo......or maybe supercharged. As for "ricers", yeah, there are alot of them here, and everyone has a honda or a mustang.....or a freakin Z4 b/c they are built here....I hate those things!!
