Default At a loss of what to do.

Not that any of you fuggers care :fawk:, but i can't decide what to do.

i'm getting $5k next month to spend on my car(s). about $1,500 will be going into my camaro just to get it running again..(tranny, tc, gears, radiator, fuel pump). with the other $3500, i'm kinda torn.

I could spend $1500-$2000 and get a turbo for the civic, and pursue chasing 14 second timeslips.....but, i'm sure my motor isn't going to last long on boost with 120k.

or i can spend $3k on a 383 engine for my camaro (which is what i've wanted to do for quite a while), with 440hp/480ft lbs, and be well into 12's with the camaro, and still have my honda for every day use.

the problem with that is, i'm going to start breaking more and more shit on my camaro with that much power. i know i can take the motor that's in it to 12's, but it's going to need a rebuild soon too. buying the 383 would be pretty much like buying a new car.

or my third option, use the 3k to buy a 5th gen hatch, and have 2 daily drivers.



so say you were given $5k to blow on just your car(s), what would you do?
