Originally posted by AWDBOB View PostThis build is so great. I'd be interested to hear an estimate of what you have into it once it's on the road. Now that my red car's chassis is the way I want it, it makes a swap inevitable, eventually. The S54 is the prime candidate, but I feel budget could get out of hand rather quickly, urging one to go LS.

Started with a rebuilt m50 with an m52 bottom end, the S52 that I yanked and now the S54. I paid like $700 for the shell back in 2009.IG: deniso_nsi Leave me feedback here

The cost is not necessarily something that you can tell just by seeing the car...
The first m50 rebuild was costly but I also did supporting stuff in the process. The S52 was around $2500 but that was a very very lucky deal because my friend was parting out a coupe back then.
M50/M52 build:
This is when I swapped in the S52:
My car:
This is how it looked when I just finished it in 09:
It's undergone a big transition from when I first built it. Initially it was a street car then slowly as I got into track events and such I set the car up to be more track car than anything.
So things like momo racing seats... a roll cage, 5pt harnesses, track brake pad compouds, tires, wheels... etc.IG: deniso_nsi Leave me feedback here

Yep thats the mtech skirts and door pods :up:
I had purchased the bumpers a while back but had to sell them because I needed some cash quickly sadly. I like the way it looks though.IG: deniso_nsi Leave me feedback here
