    how much money have u put into your car?

    as of right now, way too fucking much. Around $6k. By the time I'm done.... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too fucking much.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    Hmm... motor/tranny swap was 2g, wheels/tires almost 2g, supercharger/fuel around 4g installed, plus with the current fresh block/clutch/headers goin on gonna be close to 3g, plus all the other misc parts over the years, i'd say 12k atleast.

    ugh, about $7,500 over 3 years. Approx. $4,500 for new ITR longblock, parts, & suspension and $3k for paint & body and cosmetics...Need to spend about $2,500 more to complete the rollcage, finish suspension, ITB's, tuning, cf hatch & FAL glass, etc...sponsors will be coming into play soon though so maybe i can be fast and look a lil better
