no i just put that in, if the car is being used as a full on track car it is a wasted 1000euro minimum in my eyes!:D but mine was a road car first but i never drove it!!

Im actually refusing to make a calculation of what ive spent over the last 3years getting into drifting and up to this point, apart from knowing for a fact i could have Chucky chaser and still not be finished cost wise.
Buying the cars is the cheap bit, even if they cost €10k
Worse again is everything u need to buy is in hundreds and/or thousands, not ten's or twenty's :(
So far for this new season, should have costed me well over 5/6k and thats WITHOUT the purchase of the car
no i just put that in, if the car is being used as a full on track car it is a wasted 1000euro minimum in my eyes!:D but mine was a road car first but i never drove it!!
sweet i spose it would be 1000euro extra to spend on the car so

31-03-10, 09:07
the silvia again i was finished with it was standing me around 17k vrt included but at the cheaper price of a non turbo the things we do eh and then was forced to sell because of college:mad::mad:
jesus lol depressing thread..
my big mistake was my civic. 12k into it, swapped it for standard 200sx s13, and 4k into that. so i guess you could say i put 16k into sally....
dont be getting depressed lads
think of it this way,if you were going out on the piss every weekend it would cost you €300 minimum,52 weeks a year and thats €15600,so by staying off the drink for one year get a drift car and a lot of fun:D win win
ps if you only spent €100 a week on drink over the last three years its the same amount:cool:
and you still have your car!!!!
LOL that's shocking thread. I believe that I'd spend similiar amounts if I paid for the work I did myself on a driveway usually in the rain or cold.
4 years back I spent 3.5k on nicely specced UK s13, raped it, sold it for 2k, kept parts (they'll go into my current s13) , 6 s-bodys later I didn't spend anything extra really than that 2k bar now I have a mint silvia s14 and a good UK s13 which will be back on the road next week hopefully.
Obviously, it cost shit loads of work and time and if I took that into account then it wouldn't be funny especially because I have family.

Its cheaper just to bin drink all together and work in a pub instead, so that way your getting paid to be there! That was my theory anyways!
And its easier to get girls when your on the sober side of the bar!:rolleyes:
Hoping to have bmw on track for €2k I'm sure that'll jump up during the year but i do all my own work so save a hell of a lot there. If you had to pay for the labour it'd be up around €5k I'd say all in
skyline is standing me lless than 7thousand and tat,ll be mapped and back running again silvia is less than ten thousand also
i do all my own work and generally look for good deals

31-03-10, 16:36
My s13 stands me i say 10-11 k when I add everything up and iv another 10 to spend on it to get it the way i want it.............
I refuse too add up what my skyline stands me cause that would be scary............ Real scary...............
Still I wouldn't change it for the world............!!!!!!!!!!!

Lads you need to get your cheap drinking on. E50 is a fortune to a college student lol! Nothing cheapen ups a nightclub more than smuggling in a nagan in your sock, then get a red bull (or even a cheaper mixer if you want) and pour in the nagan in the jacks. If you're really hardcore you can even go the two nagan approach in the nightclub.
Crazy to see what some ppl have spent on their cars. :eek:
so much i aint even gonna add it up!! who cares bout money anyway!! lol
