This thread is evil.

 

 

This thread is here to make me justify my spendings.

My gf doesnt care so much about my purchases as long as she gets something at the same time, so it gets very tactical and tricky.

My wife believes that other members on the board here donate their used goods to me for free!

 

Can you believe some sucker was giving away a set of OZ Superleggeras because they didn't fit on his new car ;)

 

 

I just shat my pants laughing! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :spin::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Imagine that! That's how I got my OZs, Rotas, my stage 2 setup, my STi Brembos, my Swifts, and my Cobb sways.

Anyone have any new build tallies from over the winter? I'll be posting up my list here as soon as I'm ready to do the turbo swap. Just think, most of these don't include tool, fluids and other crap that you bought while doing the build. Throw all those thing in there too and it gets real scary. Then throw in the value of a couple hundred hours of your own labor and it's sickening :lol:.
Let's kick this pig!

AP 600

Rims Tires 1400

DP 400

Up 150

Gaskets 100

SPT intake 100

 

~$3000

 

I will only spend more on brakes and thats it. Any more and i will just trade it in and get me 335ix or something else. No point keeping on pumping money on an already quickly depreciating vehicle. Not to mention that the creaks, rattles, chips, scratches keep getting bigger and bigger.

 

My sympathies to those that spent more that $6000 on their Leggies.

Oh God, I've been afraid a thread like this would come up one day...I've only had my car since Dec 17, 07 and things are bad already. I've purposefully put this off, keeping this info in a spreadsheet is evil.

 

I haven't tried the "used parts" excuse with the wife yet, it's always "problems" with certain parts or the need to upgrade something so that I can "tow my sportbike/trailer to track days with an auto trans." :)

AP was partially described as a datalogger & able to read CEL codes - best damn CEL reader I've ever had by far.

Where do you guys find the money? Seriously people. I make a decent living, don't have alot of expenses, and I'm boggled :)

 

Of course, I do plan on spending around ~$1000 on the car this year alone and it's brand new (sway bars ($380), short shifter ($135), shift knob($50), tint 9$200).

 

And then eventually a gutted DP and AP...

 

:)

 

Actually though, looking back, I think some people are including brake pads/rotors, flywheels and clutches, and tires....those are "maintenance" items :)
