The problem is the just the clutch and suspension alone will be $3,500-4k...then the turbo setup...then the e30 M3 body work...and the...then...haha.
LoL Yeah. There are some serious cars at the challenge, but i don't really plan on winning. Im just doing it for the experience and to have a good time building a swift daily driven street brawler for $2000 bucks.
Me and a guy i work with are doing it, he's building a sweet 320 (e21), and were going to go down there together. Its gonna be rad. You'll see my E30 around Autofab sometime in the next couple weeks since I'll be dropping a motor in it soon to get it on the road and start driving it daily.

Maybe in a few years i'll do it and build something off the wall that will actually finish well.

As for actual cars i'd really like to aspire to have, im hoping that by next year or the year after i'll be poking around in an STI, but i doubt it LoL. Probably just pick up an E36 M3 late this year and build it up a little bit.
