Iv spent about $5500 maybe more. The trans rebuild was around 1800. New parts for the rear another 750. Clutch and flywheel set up was another 500ish, and the driveshaft was another 400. Thats already 3450. Now add all the other crap. Intake, exhaust,gears,tuning,lid,tb etc...

I've been very slow to come around. Drive the thing stock for two years just creeping around this site and learning a bit here and there. I seriously think I held off the temptation, only thing I did was so simple stuff, some Zaino (ok, one "out of normal expense there) and tinted the window ($120). Probably spent 200 in two yrs.
Well, now I graduated from school and got my tax returns. I figured it was finally time to start to get into it. I EASILY spent my taxes ($1500) just like that. and now I have a wish list probably of $4-5K without labor.
So yeah, I just got hooked, and boy I can see it coming. Probably 2k with everything and maintainence for two year.....but will probably realistically spend another $2-3k in the next two yrs. But I love er!

Ehhhh..... Unfortunately, I've spent about $3,000 dollars on it since I bought it in August.
Way, Way, Way too much.
Full boltons + nitrous and supporting parts.

All labor done myself. Tunning by Slowhawk. Not sure, don't want to know. I did just spend $3K on AFR heads & related install parts. Still not on the car yet. Need to have them milled first and find a free weekend to install them. 
Close to $8k?
