I am just curious, how much have you guys spent on your cars. I am talking total price like repairs, tax, tag, title from the day you bought it to present date. Just for shits and giggles? Ohh and if you have any idea why my 240sx sr20det redtop cuts out like a speedlimiter in 3rd gear at 7000rpm? your ideas would be appreciated, maybee fuel cut but i don't even know what that is?

There is still a lot more stuff that I will need and a lot that I don't really need. I enjoy spending my hard earned money on this car though. The car is still up on jack stands at the moment, and I predict it to be done within the next month or two. I started this project a little less than a year ago from now.

Did I forget to mention Kouki front end conversion with a DRFT kit, Chargespeed over fenders, and carbon hood? No folks, this isn't a dream, I already have all the stuff! :D I dont even know how much I spent anymore, but its never enough!

Jeez that list is almost right nearly a year later, except I added a whole lot of suspension mods on top of that. Subtract 2800 from insurance paying for my accident, cost including the car about 35k. Still not done!

for some of the people who have spent over 10k, think about what your goals were...then think of how much cheaper it might have been to go domestic :)

i.e. want to go fast as hell, go old school domestic

honestly I was going for just speed, but somehow a 240sx with a 4 banger just sounded better than a hillbilly 80s camaro, and im in detroit area where that shit is more common than anything, plus handling was a nice bonus, and any year camaros or T/A sept 98 plus T/A look like shit, and I have an american mustang, american cars are just blah.

oh ive spent like 7 grand and its still slow, but i dont care its fun. and could be fast with a grand or 2 more,

02-16-2005, 02:32 PM

RedEvil you have barely spent anything!

agreed. especially compared to the cars that are over 10g's

oh and i forgot to add that i still need to buy 2 new fenders and get a new paintjob, and my new hatch for 100$, and possibly a new front bumper.

lol working at ups is definitely not going to cut it anymore :Owned:

I purchassed my '97 S14 back in '98 for $16,000.
Drove it for 2 months and the brakes started acting up... probably because the dealership was stupid enough to put Power Streering Fluid in my Master Cylinder... then I can't prove they did it so... that was $3000 out of pocket to replace everything!!

Carbon Dash Kit
All Boston Acustics
Razo Titanium Pedals
Razo shifter* (crap)
Momo e-brake* (crap)
Cusco Oil Catch Tank
Nismo Oil cap
Nismo Radiator Cap
NGK 8mm Wires
Bosch Platnum 4 Plugs
All Bulbs replaced with Hyper White
(all done in the first year... newbie mistakes included*)

Car is currently down for a huge makeover...
JDM Kouki Headlights
JDM Kouki Amber Blinkers
URAS Kit
Carbon Hood (my secret)
Ings Fenders
AAR Seats
Nismo Steering Wheel
S14 SR20
etc...
etc...
You will see later... so far about $40k w/ car.

BTW... nice build up Josh!

I bought and sold a lot of stuff in the process, so I dont know where I'm at with that. I also had to buy a van and trailer to tow it arround so thats another 2k if you count. I also didnt put in any shop labor charges. I do almost everything myself, but I live at an appartment and I can do everything... So totaling just the parts it comes out to be... arround 18k. I <3 my car! Worth every penny!

The car goes into the paint shop on Friday, full engine bay, interior, and exterior paint job, all dents reworked, windshield replaced, etc. no clue on how much that will cost as of right now. CA18 will be paid for a few weeks later, paying $1400. the '--blahblah--' are waiting until the CA goes in with the exception of the cams. Not doing those until I have all the other head parts to support them.
