I do all my own work from the build of the engine to the trans,rear and tune. I even painted the car. Welded the roll bar. SO that is one of the main reasons I can do this stuff. As far prices go I think we did the math a few years ago and it was right around the 15,000 range for this car includes the cost of the car. that is Buying parts used when we can and there is alot of used on it. The other car we wont get into but it is more of a race/street car if and when I get it done. But the real work and money is over there.

I dont have any stock pics of the car uploaded, but I do have a sexy stock engine pic:



I bought it for $2800 in 2007. It was stock with 10 hole rims. The only mods were a broken coil spring and an exhaust leak. I switced the T5 to a C4, did the rear, suspension, etc. Still has the stock bottom end, 170cc heads, and an Erson camshaft. Plate kit with "100" shot pills in it ran 7.1x at 97 mph in the 1/8th.

These pics are not recent. It now has 4' front rims, smoked headlights, and a Kaenen hood is on the way
