^^^I agree there. Instead of constantly buying the “newer/better” parts…I could have probably went ~almost~ as fast with what I already had. But, oh well…Im REALLY happy with my current setup. ---

all money spent on a street car does not go completly into performence though…that end product would be a track car. One adds their own touches…things they like or enjoy everyday while driving there car. One may put in thousands in speakers, rims, or lights but thats what they enjoy and thats all that matters. I know for my car speed isn’t everything. I also want a car that handles great, and has a killer sound system, not to mention dead sexy looks 🙂 ---

$2k for car with no mods= 9.70’s at lancaster =14’s in the 1/4 i think $500 in parts = 13.70’s at NYI Then the new motor. $7k in parts/suspension/motor/tranny = 12.29 at NYI Then this year $1400 on a blower and some other things I am hoping for some low 11’s, but thats if my driving is ok. ---

I think I’ll be just over $5k by spring time ~$1,000 for turbo set up ~$1300 for completely rebuilt motor ~$1300 for coilovers ~$350 CF hood ~$400 for bigger brakes, knuckles, axles ~$1000 for bodywork/repaint (comeing soon) plus prolly another $1k for next year not counting things done from before i bought the car, which i’ve sold some stuff to get some money back i definatly spent way to much money on my neon. ---
