The only substitute for cubic inches is rectangular dollars!

I'm trying to decide if it is worth it now to sell both my sets of wheels and get some different forged ones or sell the Volks, keep the Sevas and put some cash toward my motor build...

for me a over 5k. most mods i liked, at the same time i hated. for example, i got rims, tires, coilovers, and dropped that sucker to maker her look sexy. well, sexy comes at a price. I had to go and get a rear camber kit and an alignment, thats an extra 3bills for those two things. not to mention i still have to get the fronts. not chiiiiiillin'

money is just a green piece of paper with a number on the corner.

Who wants to think about this topic..I sure don't.

Lets just say I could have had my car 80% paid off if I kept it stock.

But then again, having a one of a kind car is worth it IMO.

Z-tube = $50 (ebay)
19" coupe wheels = $1240 (w/ ship - ebay)
Fidanza Flywheel = $465
ClutchMasters Stage 1 = $323

Items below being done currently:
Z full revised suspension = $225 (ebay)
OEM Brembo = $1,400 (w/ ship - ebay)
Coupe Midpipe = $150 (w/ ship - ebay)
Rouge SS = $150 (lightly used - Marketplace)
Axxis Ultimate = $40
Stillen Brake Stiffener = $140
Hotchkis Sways = $300
GT-Spec F & R Bars = $150
Stoptech SS Brake Lines = $170
Z-1 SS Clutch line = $30
Labor = ???
Total= $4833......so far. (wow, that's alot more that I thought, and I haven't even done anything to make the car faster)

I'll probably spend another $1-2K or so before I'm done. To afraid of voiding warranty going FI, not to mention having a very limited budget. Took over 3 years to finally start modding.
