Idrewfelix - I have modded, replaced or restored just about every part of the car except the body/paint. So I wouldnt have the most fixed up, restored and modified SC
on the boards.
Ms.Emerald probably holds that title.

i've owned the car for about a year now
just doing a rough estimate, my mods total up to ~8k, lol
should by 10k soon, as i'm in the middle of buying stuff to single the car.
*edit* oh yea, should add i payed <3k for the car iteself.
and ~4k total for the swap w/ r154 after all was said and done.

Interesting thread.....its good to know that one is not alone in this "hobby"...more like addiction. I'm at a total of $18k thus far into my car, including the cost of the car itself. Not really too bad and definately worth the expense

Volk LE37 Wheels + Tires $2,500
5 Speed Manual Swap $1,000
Megan Racing Coilovers $800
NOS Wet Nitrous Kit $500
Vertex Lip $500
HID’s (headlight + fog) $500
LS400 Brakes $250
Exhaust $250
AEM Wideband $200
Injen Intake + K&N Filter $150
Tint $150
A hair under $7,000 now... it'll probably be about $9,000 to $10,000 in mods after going NA-T (again, but a bigger turbo this time around ), lowering the compression (head gasket), etc.
It's all good though, since I've won somewhere between $15,000 and $20,000 gambling in the past 6 months .

.....
Definitly more than $25k in mods not including the cost of the car... and still about $15k from my goal 9s time slip, jaw dropping looks, unique interior and more than 1000bhp.
