I'm not sure that this is the right place but i guess i am putting this topic under B.S. This is for all those out there with seamingly endless amounts of money and sources from which to get parts. I don't consider myself a "tuner" but i guess i know my car very well, inside and out. But when things like low funds and other living expences come in to play how do you keep motivated? I see great things being done and i don't want the "blingest" ride with all the tricks "mil-spec wiring harness,shaved and tucked" even though thats just some of the coolest shtuff to see in person. I just want my car to look good and get me there. I am not afraid of doing work either. What motivates you? HOLLA

What motivates me is how crappy i would feel selling it because I gave up on it and then when things get a little better and I can afford it kicking myself in the ass for not holding out. Live with no regrets.

honestly i can't give up on my sti now. ive got too much money sunk into the turd to ever get back out of it, so i figure i might as well keep it.

Yeah i feel ya on that, i have a good amount of money in it and lots more on the shelf. The more i think about it, i would probably kick my own ass if i did sale her.

I just go take mine for a nice drive... it always puts me in the mood to keep my chin up. There is enough invested in my car to....well, let's not go there. I'm looking forward to getting my giant big brake kit on the car...wanted to do it before IA, but last night was the only night I had a chance but spend time cleanign the car instead.
