Anyone else get that warm fuzzy feeling?

- Thu Nov 08, 2007 2:19 am #28951 When looking or thinking about car parts? :oops:

I could probably list enough things to spend 5 grand on right now that I want, but alas, the cash is what's holding me back.

What does everyone wanna do to their car asap? That project you can't wait to tackle or your next scheduled mod or upgrade? Share the thing that almost makes you cream your pants just thinking about it.

Jesus...

I trust you'll have pics for us throughout the entire process :P

God, tucking and shaving...those are still daily routines for me, not plans for my car lol, I have a feeling that's a long ways away.

- Thu Nov 08, 2007 4:22 am #29003 I am going to be finishing up my dx over winter hopefully.... I need to finish the paint & wetsand & polish. Get a windshield. Get my new replacement bumper on. Paint the rest of the interior shell gunmetal. Then install the turbo kit I've been watching sit in my basement for almost 2 yrs :lol:

Then bring it out in May straight to the tuner :woot:

I am going to be watching for a deal on suspension parts too...
my rear tokicos are blown and by car is getting bouncy as hell, and my springs are rusty.

I'd need a beater, or a crotch rocket before I could take my car off the road for the shave and tuck lol, but using Teal's threads will help I'm sure, can't wait to see that progress so I can learn from your thread as well!

Teal once you get that boosted you'll have given me an excuse to road trip it down to Ohio! (maybe 4-5 hours drive) Do you have your entire turbo set-up ready? Did you piece it together yourself or buy a kit? :D

Some kid is offering me a complete GSR swap with supposedly "82k" miles with paper work and everything for 2200....im gonna try to get the price down but i am very intrested and i really want the swap. im gonna check it out sometime this week and do a compression test,check for leaks see if the motor smokes and all that fun stuff. :thumb:

- Thu Nov 08, 2007 2:36 pm #29058 A swap is right up there on my list of things to do, but probably not in the near future unless I find a STEAL lol. I have to go scour the junkyards and see what there is :P

Still, $2200 doesn't seem bad, especially if it's local, $2K would be fabulous if everything is in good condition, no? :)
