Question How much $$$ have YOU spent on 'the car'?

Like the title states:
How much money have you spent on your FD?

Since I'm new I made my list.....
Not everything and not in order lol I know better then that
Exhaust
aluminum AST
Power FC + Commander
Intake
Aluminum Radiator
Intercooler
Battery Relocation
99 Spec font bumper/lights
Vented hood
Springs
Rear/Front Strut bar
Wheels/Tires(Low estimates)
5 Speed Swap
New paint (Need it)
PLUS price of the car

I'm looking at 32k... and I didn't want to go crazy
I think I got the best deal ever on my car lol
I should prob add 2k for another engine by then

p.s. Prices are list from RX7store.net

That seems high. you should be able to get a car that does not need paint for 12k-15k and save yourself the 3-5k paint job. Buy a modded car for 15-19k and most of that will already be on the car with a new engine.
