i never stop modding my cars/trucks because it is a hobby and it is what makes it fun to do and the fact that adding newer up to date parts will keep the car up to date.

you're pretty much the only one who can decide when to stop, it all depends on what else you want out of the car. i think the easiest way to stop would be getting a new project car. you could get another rx-7 but it seems like it would be more fun to go a different direction *dodges bullets and puts on flame suit* after having a whole project FC. perhaps FB or FD? maybe swap a rotary into some random piece of ****... or, dare i say, venture into the world of 'pistons'?
