          Not at all, I've built both of my cars and loved them thoroughly.


          I guess I just like planning ahead?


          It's not the resale value that bothers me at all, I guess that came off the wrong way, which is why I asked the question "What are your goals for this car" first. If it was a strict track car it would make more sense..

            So now an actual update.

            Got my mounts in, going to be giving them a nice coat of paint this weekend:





            Got my steering wheel and hub in! Big thanks to BoostinEuro's, awesome seller:

                If you spent more than $1000 on an M50 swap I will be surprised. If you spend less than $2500 on this swap I will be surprised.


                That being said, I'm not encouraging you to go M50, but what you just said was silly ;)

                    I have no money put into this swap... I have some stuff to sell off and some more extra cash, all I need now is an engine harness, distributer and ds. Distributer I'm picking up for $5, engine harness I found for about $20 and a shop can do a ds for about $100- 150.

                            Picking up a set of rx7 front brakes w/ corrado rotors soon. I also have an e34 booster now, abs delete.

                              Get your hands on some wider wheels first, maybe like 11 wide.

                                Going to see how the stock radiator works, If not I have a mustang one. My current one is just pretty new.
