That is good news for me personally. Now, instead of me thinking all of my Z expenses were just simple extravagances, I will now think that I am performing my social duty to the economy at large. Next time when a box from Z1 or Motorsport or Stillen arrives to my house and my wife says "Another Z part?!?!?!?", I will smile and sy "Just being a good citizen, baby and doing my part".

You could tell her you're being a good hubby because the box contains Juke parts

I think no matter how much we have spent on our Z, it is fine...

If you setup a poll in the Ladies Lounge about how much they have spent on bags & shoes, you probably have to add an extra or two "0" behind each choices....

Bro, we are all good

With whats in my sig plus the StopTech rotors, Project Mu Pads, Z1 SS brakelines and Koni Yellows that are sitting here awaiting install im at a solid 8k. It would be double that if I didnt talk myself out of forced induction, for now.

What's funny is that I say I'm not going to buy anything else and then I see something new and I can't help myself

lol I may get those eventually, too, although after throwing in an oil cooler, new wheels, and new tires, I realized that I have to put some serious cash into my beater before I can start hacking away at suspension.

kenchan · 03-19-2012, 06:06 PM

im over $5K but under $10K. dont know exactly.. dont really care actually.

birdmanx1 · 03-19-2012, 06:52 PM

Well over 20K and I haven't counted new rims... yet. The numbers would have been much more beyond that had it not been for my lady and close buddy.

Paid for mods cash so it's all good.

Baer383 · 03-19-2012, 09:35 PM

I'm @ 25k and I do all my own work.

ZInferno0248 · 03-19-2012, 10:22 PM

I really didn't want to think about the total, but I voted and just realized that my Z plus the mods very nearly ='s a slightly used GTR.

But... it has been fun.
