Crap, you just reminded me about the valve cover gasket and valve cover seals. Then I remembered about my cam and crank seals. h:

 

Ouch that does hurt. I think im close to 30k spent in mods alone. Just about done though!

 

Yeah I have cam and crank seals sitting in the box with the rest of the stuff. I didn't add in stuff I could still technically return.

Acurafanatic, that purchase price is tough to beat

 

And to think I'm going to be dropping in a b16a soon. h: What a waste of money. :happysad:

 

im not falling for that again...it made me depress.

but just my old audio systems combined:

$1000+ worth of headunits
$1000+ for subwoofers
$1300+ for amps

see imma stop there... but then again, i did sell the old stuff before getting new stuff. h:

 

Jesus. My entire build should cost about $15K. Largely because I've decided against boosting it and any other crazy engine work, it's potentially cheaper than it could be. Turboing it would bring it to $22K :eek3:

$10,000 more to go. :lubes up:

 

I just need like $5k more and I'll be happy. Well then theres the wheel whore thing. h: I want to own 2 more sets. :happysad:

 

I hear ya. :happysad: I change my wheels/tires once a year. :loco:
