I was just looking through some of my records last night - I’m tearing my bank account a new one lately. Check this out:
Nismo Front Sway Bar
Nismo Rear Sway Bar
Nismo Lower Tie Bar
Nismo Suspension Hard Rubber Bushing Kit w/ Control Arms
Nismo Coilover Shock/Spring Kit
Unorthodox Racing Pulley
Nology Hotwires with Spare Ignition Coils
Apexi SAFC-II
JWT Balance Shaft Removal Kit
And right now I’m trying to source an Apexi SuperGround system and JWT Cams.
Oh yeah, did I mention I bought all this stuff in the last 2 weeks? :E Dude - summer is coming and I’m going to be eating one hell of a lot of Kraft dinner - but at least I’ll be able to outcorner a shitload of cars.
The main reason I wanted the Apexi is because it comes with a voltage regulator/smoother. Having seen how they can extend the life/improve the performance of your average PC, I thought the benefit might be nice for the car as well.
I wasn’t planning on paying more than $150 bucks for it anyway. If we can do ground wires at your place, mebbe I’ll do that and pay you with beer.
I’ll my mod money is being spent on "modding"my camera. I dont think there will be anything new going on the car this summer, unless the fortune cookie I got on Friday comes true and I come upon great sums of money.

Anyway, if I go all the way back from October until now (since I had the car towed home with a broken diff axle from the Sept. SCC):
used 95TT diff (transferred good axle from it into my diff) - thanks Jason Lange!

Powercoated subframe, and misc. other pieces

New OEM 1990 front center panel
99 JDM Taillight set (3-piece: L & R and Centre) - not installed yet

I applaud the choice of oem body parts and using the 99 model year parts. I’ve seen a few cars with them, and they look much better than the earlier stuff.
In addition to the FSB/RSB/LTB/Hard Bushing Kit/Coilovers, I just picked up a set of Nismo R-Tune cams on Ebay for $465 USD. Not too shabby considering Ericksen wanted $1300 CAD for them…I’m not even kidding on that price.
Anyway…so now I’m more or less officially broke. :E
