Re: How much have you spent on your civic?

K20a2 swap, Kpro, race header, intake-$7,000
Tein Basic dampers-$850
Sway bar, strut bar, camber adjustment-$700
Enkie rims-$700
Total in tires (I go through alot of tires)-$1500
Tuning time-$400
bi-annually alignments-$300
Si rear brake swap-$300
Goodridge stainless lines-$100
Brake pads (I go through alot of pads)-$200
Fluids (oil, brake, tranny, clutch)-$600

Total spent so far-~$12,650 I have sold some of my old parts to make about $3,000 so net total would be around $10,000.

Future $ to spend:
-race tires and rims-$1000
-Quaif ATB-$1000
-new suspension-$1,200
-more tuning time-$300

New total $3500+old 10,000=$13,500-$500 for the suspension that I would sell=Final total of $13,000

The final total would put my car where I want it, where it will be by next race season.

Re: How much have you spent on your civic?

I don't even want to know. In the last 2 months I have dropped over $5K on the turbo stuff. That doesn't count everything I've done prior. I totaled it up and for just the stuff involved in the the turbo project I'm at $6483. Then there's paint, I.C.E., suspension, my bolt-on I/H/E bits, wheels and tires. I have two Civics but it only looks like one.

Re: How much have you spent on your civic?

I've got a CD/MP3 player at the costs of $300. I had a 12" Kappy Perfect in the trunk, but I sold it after the amp went out.

I'll be spending $350 on Tokico struts, but only because one of the stock ones is completely blown out now.

My other car has about $20k - $25k in it,m but the Civic will stay stock.

Re: How much have you spent on your civic?

I recently drove in my friends Mustang GT and im in love. im not hating on the civic because its what i got but after driving in it, makes me wish and wonder how nice life would be with a car like that. right now as a student i cant afford it right now, but i hope soon in the future.

Re: How much have you spent on your civic?

I've put about 12,500 miles on my Civic and so far have spent a little under 2,000 on repairs and cosmetic stuff like a F1 tint job and new wheels.
