$2200 on a 91 Laser RS-T, 80k orig. miles, 1 prior owner.
$2850 in mods, not inluding repairs(damn dsm)
Only mods you can see are the Tsi swirlies and neccesary. gauges.
The rest is under the hood.

oh lord this is depressing


car- $2000

$600 in suspension
$300 in brakes
$1550+ in exterior shit+wheels and tires.
$1200+ in interior and sounds etc
$550 in my first mods before swap(i/e/flywheel)
$2800 in the first swap that was a complete pos...that includes header and tranny etc....

had to rebuild that motor 120 miles later

$1700 in parts and machine shop labor etc


$8700 in mods, that doesnt include repairs...dizzy, altenator...MC, etc etc. Nor does it include the shit i replaced(crappy coilovers, wheels other misc shit i later redid.)


ugh, and the mother fucker is still burning lots of oil after rebuild......to be continued.....I've had the car for over 3 years though, it was my first car. What really stinks about that number, is that im a "deal" shopper...i usally wait for deals to come to me.......

Pic's of the first week i got it.







EDIT: WHat reall fucking sucks, is that if i never messed with the 200k mile ls motor in here, id have 4500 more bucks to my name......god, so not worth it...its not even like im fast now lol
