not much spent here
I have had my 98 max se 5spd for only 3 months but Ive spent $8700 for car, $20 for clear corners, $20 for mats, $500 in subs and amps, $150 for cd player. So Ive really only spent $690. More mods to come though.

and i just bought cefiros

havent gotten the chance to do anything yet. I kinda got a maxima instead of a 240sx so that i WOULDNT mod myself into financial ruin. heres what i plan on doing(excluding maintanance):
Y-Pipe $200
tires $300
Stereo $600
interior mods $200
FSTB $50
I think thats where I'll stop. College expensive

I'll convert Canadian money to US money, to compare to you guys:
Car (1995 SE 5-speed) w/114k miles= 3,200$
Cattman headers 725$
Cattman Hiflow cat 240$
Cattman Catback 600$
PR motor mounts 260$
CAI 135$
FSB & RSB 285$
Clutchnet 6-puck 400$
VQ35DE from '02 Altima 950$
Wiring, ECU and MAF from '02/'04 Altima= 650$
STS 110$
Shift boots and armrest cover from Redline=95$
bumper lights=40$
I guess that's it. Total; 4500$ in mods, and 3200$ for the car.

rims+tires= $1700
Suspension= $500
Audio System = $700
Brakes = $300
Supercharger w/mods = $4000 SOLD
Misc. = $500
I'd say i spent $8000 but sold the SC so now the car has $4000 invested into it. But like everyone said. After you wash the car you certainly love it.
