In the two years I've owned my car I've spent just over $25K in mods, maint, engine, etc. All the receipts are in a file, a big file. My new wife wishes I loved her half as much...lol We were dating when I bought my FD and she said it's been down hill ever since!

Is it just me or are the hcoices way too low? should be more like 0-1000/ 1000-3000/ 3000-6000/ 6,000-12,000 / 12,000- 25,000 / 25 +. Lets see myself, i spent 4k rebuild, 3k rebuitl transmission, 2k body kit, 2k engine work/perforamcne/reliability. so 11k

6 motors... fully built
1 t-78 greddy turbo
1 t-88 greddy turbo

every aftermarket thing you can think of
i think after the cost of the car and all the hours i put in on it, it , in my mind is worth well over 75k
