I still dont have a 240sx yet and if i dont get one soon ill have to get a different car for the summer which might actually work out better cause then i can get a 240sx and work on it all summer without worying about it not working or major repairs. I have basically worked out my expenses for the next year and how much im going to make i plan on having about $10,000 to spend in the next year(including cost of car) this is just a quick breakdown of what i think the cost are going to be

Car- $3000 if i buy now or less than $1000 if i buy it while driving another car  
CD player- $150  
coilovers- $1200  
Brakes- $1000  
rims and tires(used)- $600  
short shifter- $100  
sway bars- $150  
clutch -$400  
flywheel- $400  
exhaust- $500  
turbo setup without intercooler to begin with- $1500  
miscellanious- $500 (filter, hoses, oil, rust etc)  
gauges -$200  
seats- $600

this is basically in the order i plan to buy and install everything i just want to know if most of these prices are resonable i have checked and some of the prices i rounded up for a just in case kinda thing. i plan on making it a all around care for anything from drags to autocross obviosly i will have more money next year and knowing how most plans go this will take longer than a year but this is a rough estimate.

Is this a KA-T setup or a SR20DET?

Car- $3000 if i buy now or less than $1000 if i buy it while driving another car  
CD player- $150  
coilovers- $1200  
Brakes- $1000 ------- $650  
rims and tires(used)- $600  
short shifter- $100  
sway bars- $150 ------- More like $500-$600 for Whitelines  
clutch -$400  
flywheel- $400  
exhaust- $500  
turbo setup without intercooler to begin with- $1500 ------- What does this include? turbo charger, header, downpipe elbow?  
miscellanious- $500 (filter, hoses, oil, rust etc) ------- Maybe a little less  
gauges -$200  
seats- $600 ------- Is this really necessary?

OK, here’s my version:

> Car- $3000 if i buy now or less than $1000 if i buy it while driving another car  
> CD player- $150  
> coilovers- $1200  
> Brakes- $1000 ---- Agree with Gonad there  
> rims and tires(used)- $600 ----- ditch the seats and up this to 1200  
> short shifter- $100  
> sway bars- $150 ---- again, ^  
> clutch -$400  
> flywheel- $400  
> exhaust- $500  
> turbo setup without intercooler to begin with- $1500 ----- you may have a hard time doing even the most basic setup with this cash  
> miscellanious- $500 (filter, hoses, oil, rust etc)  
> gauges -$200  
> seats- $600 ----- don’t bother, grab some s14’s if you need to.

its a KA-t setup with everything basically a cheap sutup with most likely a T25 turbo or any other cheap turbo, a jgs header, Sr injectors, hacked MAF, etc intercooler will eventually come but its a basic setup to build off of

sorry i meant to say strut bars not sway bars

and seats kinda just put a random number there cause i havent decide on what i want either 2 s14 CLOTH seats, 2 cheap racing seats or one really nice racing seat
