I would have gotten some power first. What do you have under the hood?

bing · 01-27-2002, 08:14 PM

i would have invested in heroin, i hear you can make a killing...

actually i have about twice that in canadian bucks and i'm not really in a rush...

i do have front and rear strut bars on order though, cant wait to get'em...

i went all show to start with...simply because i wanted to save the best for last and i really really didnt want to do what every one does..get some money, buy intake, get some more money, buy exhaust and maybe headers, get some more, sparkplug wires and a strut bar...get some more upgrade to cai...you get the picture. im looking to have a plan for the motor. as far as body goes, i felt it was easier to mix and match. but thats just my opinion.

I would thought about doing a SR engine swap. But some people like show cars I guess.

Modding your car is very addicting.
Once you start modding your car, you keep wanting to put more money into it.
People turn down drugs when they're broke, but if they run across some nice car parts at a good price they're willing to start pawning stuff to get it.

BlueSix · 01-28-2002, 02:11 AM

Hehe I've got my 180 taillights sitting in boxes in my garage..

They aren't going in until I get a new front bumper and a new paint job.. Which isn't going to happen until I build up my motor and turbo it... Soooo they are gonna be sitting there for a whiiiile haha

sspikey · 01-28-2002, 04:50 AM

cars in my opinion are moneypits you CANT stop spending on them!

now if i can only find out why im up so early

thewholefnshow · 01-28-2002, 09:05 AM

Seriously... you cry, but imagine us canadains... everything you get costs more, and we don't get payed more! So you know how broke I am? Just the car put me in considerable debt! I need 10k-15k to get close to what I want to do with my car. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

sspikey · 01-28-2002, 12:46 PM

well intill then i will hold on to them OK??

but i have a few mods in the moter i have 2.5 cat back exhaust, ngk wires & plugs K&N air filter and injectors (dont ask me what kind cause i have no clue ) when i bought the car the kid told me alittle about it but i didnt pay much attention

like i said before "all show and little go" for now till next winter
can you say SR

SR..........  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

bing · 01-28-2002, 08:21 PM

hey canadians... where do you get your stuff?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

i cant find anywhere around here....

my240likeyaddayaddayadda...

did you sell your rims???

my240likenoother · 01-28-2002, 08:25 PM

nope still up for sale
did you get the pix i sent???

bing · 01-28-2002, 08:30 PM

no i did not...

i can honestly say that if we lived closer i would buy them from you, but considering the distance and the fact that the exchange rate has me bent over and bleeding is keeping me from spending more on my car...

i orderd a pair of front and rear strut bars and it cost me $225 canadian $$, and im about to tip the scale another $500 for my stereo upgrade, and i almost bought a nakamichi home stereo today but a decided to wait a little...

i have a few bucks right now, + i'll be getting a fair tax return, so now is the time but there is no where near here to go for a good deal on shit...

bing · 01-28-2002, 08:47 PM

how much are you asking again???
