derogate Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Well, lets hear it guys. How much dough have you sunk into your money pits? Everything from wheels and lifts, to repairs and transmissions (lol) Poll does not include price of the vehicle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Well, I went for the $1-3k option for now. Interesting though how much I have saved doing all my own work, otherwise it would be in the $3-5k range by now... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iLLlegal Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 1-3k with all my stereo equipment and new front end parts and my fogs. gets me around the 2k price range ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj big shoe Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Prolly a bit over the $3k cut off because I had shops replace the trans and headers/exhaust, but I think still under $4 G's so far, but there's still paint, SAS and a supercharger to go.

SC88Pathy Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Well I'v only had the pathy for a little over a year and it's closing in on $2000, but I have had most of the work done at shops... Close to $2000 and no real mods besides the stereo! Hmmph need to get that bull bar on soon, need to have something to show for all that money spent.

Mr. Pickles Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 LOL I'm sooo far off the end of this price scale, I don't even want to go there. And I've done much of it myself too. Suspension, body lift, various stereo and lighting stuff, locker, then there's a couple brake jobs, clutch, broken exhaust studs, etc. etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmd0311 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Nothing for now... That will quickly change before the end of summer to something like 1-2k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth1 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I'm in over 5000 now. The only work I've paid to have done is a new clutch, alignment, and a day of labor for diagnosis once. All the other work I've done. I'm saving about 2000 just by doing the motor swap myself. I didn't even realize I'd spent that much until I just thought about it. Ouch!

Harbinger Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) So far I'm running at about $200 -- for a oil change and CV axle. Not there isn't money to be spent -- I need a new CL & Shocks BAD! Not to mention some normal tires -- Still only have the studded coopers on there. Edited May 1, 2006 by Harbinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unccpathfinder Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) hmmm between my 2 the 87 has prob had at least 3-5k in tires, repairs, oil changes and what not in the 6 years i've had it including a top half rebuild and a swap that is yet to be completed the 95 only has about $50 worth of work done on it so i guess we'll go with somewhere in there Edited May 1, 2006 by unccpathfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vengeful Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I'm going to wait for a few weeks before voting yet. Got about $1800 worth of parts going on soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giancarlo93 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Its almost gonna be a little bit over $5000 One of the reasons is that I have to pay 30% more of the parts cost on USA just to get it here on Panama Republic. Rancho Suspension Kit $875 Spare wheel $100 Labor for the suspension kit new clutch, new brakes all 4, power steering pump and steering damper $650 ARB bull bar $1200 Winch $750 Body lift labor and kit $250 Tires $150 each one. New Clutch, disc, preasure plate and bearing. $180 Brakes $50 I guess im missing something. To all the parts you got to add 30% more, that's for the frinking shipping.

vengeful Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 $860? Depending on where you buy it, you're looking at up to $925 for the TM lift alone! Then add $120 for the Optima Red Top.... Pathy parts are expensive... You know what they say though "4x4 in upper case is $X$" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
