Definitely is liking the colder weather. I really want to do some upgrades but afraid to jump down that rabbit hole.

Well, ‘let’s upgrade the fuel system to E85’ quickly turns into a $2,500-3,000 (return setup w/rails $1,100, fuel pump $150, injectors $600 and ecutek license and tune $850).

‘It’s be nice to have more grip’ turns into $5,000 (new rims w/tires $3,500, rear control arms $300, alignment $100 and coil-overs $1,100)

Modding is expensive.

makes me scared for the coming mods. i literally was thinking this last night.

ok so the exhaust i want is about 4500.....but i may go used and different brand for 1500-2000 to save for more parts.

intakes are 300-500

cobb tuner used not like there is wear) is about 850. any mod on the GTR requires tune pretty much except midpipe.

furl upgrades can vary depending of what i get.

after those mods jump because it's then turbos, internals, tranny, etc...

I plan on switching the GTR over to E85 but i think i may have someone do the fuel upgrades for me. i've never worked on a fuel system and i'm too nervous i'd mess up or get gas all over my interior lol
