It's funny how you say that about loved ones, mine has spent as much on mods to her car as I have mine! Not bad for a WRX that runs low 13's driven by a girl.

Spent $17K TTL on the car

Somewhere in the ballpark of $9K on mods (not all are go fast mods) 13.5 is best @ 110, easily a high 12 sec car on a cooler night with DR's and a better driver... (2nd time at the track, can't get my 60fts squared away, nevermind a junked up clutch, probably run 12's now with all the new mods and more experience)

Mod Listing

Unless you all donate $$$$ to me so that I can heavily mod my T/A, I'm sending your posts to your wives/girlfriends. That way, they'll know where all of your money really goes. Yes, it is blackmail.
