Luckily, we got $1k of outside funding for our project, and he promised us another $500-1k.

We already have the money. A guy in my group's mom needed a tax write off, so she donated us $1k.

You might already know these but here are some tips...
Most companies offer free samples, take them. For instance Microchip who makes the PIC chips has freebies and thats where we got out PICs from. They are generally $15 a piece.
Jameco, All electronics are the best places to buy stuff. They have cheaper rates for bulk orders.

Well, we need an engine. We have a borrowed engine for the first part of our project...but for the 2nd semester, we're gonna need one we can keep. Hayabusa motors are not cheap

Guess you guys are gonna do some funding yourself like we are. Good luck, I know I am gonna pass out when my next cc bill comes in. Hopefully I can get some of the money back.

No..if we don't get outside funding, we'll have to settle for something else. The hayabusa motor is for our advisor's wet dream.
