Its funny i never realized what your pic was. Then i was watching some american muscle tv show and just realized its a pic of a blower.
True but 15k for a new car gets like nothing. Hell a s2000 is fast but odds are a 5-6k 2jz-gte swapped sc is faster. (plus i cant fit into a s2000 i'm 6'3)
Then like 1-1.5k for hypercoils, 500ish for lca and another 1-2k for rims,tires and brake calipers and my car is gonna preform better than anything else i would spend that money on.
So for about 9k i get a car thats gonna preform like brand new and handle as good as porches. The other 6k is to go fast, like new tranny(r154), clutch, single turbo, manifold, fuel delivery system, ams, exhaust ect.
good to hear that you havent spent so much money on your car yet! Is it really worth it to spend $15,000 on a car?
I thought about getting crazy with my '99 GS400. But then when I did the math.... GS400 + $15000.... I decided that rather than dump that kind of money into my 10 year old car, I would rather sell it and get something less worn out.
I ended up with a white s2000 and a white RX400h. In other words, you could end up with your SC400 + another car instead. $15,000 is a lot of money! Just food for thought!
