Modded much?

  Top of Page

Just to get an idea of what sort of big spenders are on OzLib, i'd be interested to find out how much money has been spent on performance modifications only. This does not include things like services, new tires etc, only things to make it go faster!

I've promised not to spend a cent on mine after I bought it.

That went out the window within 8 hours, after the purchase of my first item, a $2.5K DVD HU.

I don't want to count how much I've spent in the seven months I've owned the forking thing, but its over $8K already at an estimate! (which isn't an option on the poll!!)

Really depends on how you look at it, my conversion cost me about $12,000 inc 3" TBE, clutch, etc etc but since doing it I've only spent about $14 on mods to make it go faster, home made CAI & extra olive in the turbo line, also since buying the car I've bought, done up & sold about 5 other Subi's at good profits so it doesn't really owe me a cent.smile

ZILTCH... not a cent! (performance wise). I've only owned my car for 6 weeks and it still sits as standard as it sat in the showroom 5 years ago, with an extra 50 thousand k's that is! Kinda sad really. It's the same old story... big plans, little cash! Although i can see some computer work and TBE in the not too distant future :yes2:

are we talking mods here, or repairs/maintenance?

because I wouldn't count the price of repairs/servicing/maintenance. they're costs you naturally can't avoid.

I think this thread is about wasting big bickies on things your girlfriend/wife/spouse/gayassbanditboyfriendbumbumlover would strangle you with a coathanger for...

Mods to the engine mate, but about 1500 was a bit of panelbeating and removing scratches and shopping trolly dents, making her look pretty again

Mods mate,  this 14k has been done this year
please list these mods.

don't list engine rebuilds and components smile I consider an engine rebuild (even if its beyond OEM specs) after its been blown up as "repair"... your mum's car has had "downtime" as a result of damage, and a rebuild is a repair...so essentially, its a necessary expenditure. I think the thread was about expenditure on your vehicle that wasn't totally necessary (although the owners would justify it as it being "necessary"... but thats another can of worms...)


Nothing wrong with gays. As long as they're not getting teary on the forums, and stay away from my ass, I can learn to appreciate their opinions...

for a moment...

before I post up thread bombs....

Yep I agree, if it needs fixing then that's not modding. I, however, deem my my expenditure as an absolute and flagrant waste of money, that was necessary.

BTW, it must be desert time 'cos I see chocolate starfish.
