You just won $25k in credit for parts. How will you spend it? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anthony · 08-22-2013, 09:17 AM

If you won $25,000 that you had to spend on your BR-S, how would you spend it? You can be as thorough (factoring in shipping and labor) or as lazy (estimating part costs) as you want. Keep the $25,000 limit though. That part is crucial. I thought this would be fun for everybody and I'm also interested to see how people would spend the money.

This.

And a good pair of vintage SSR mesh wheels.

Still waiting for more suspension options intill stock shocks crap out.

Shit. I didn't even get brakes in all that.

husker741 · 08-22-2013, 10:10 AM

I would take it to Rev Works and tell them spend it however you want towards my car and make it crazy.

You would have $10,980 for tires and wheels. I think you could probably make it all the way through the season with that.

Ryuu0u · 08-22-2013, 12:00 PM

Not sure on the pricing for everything but.

3sgte swap making 400hp~
Eibach R1's and all the other suspension goodies.
Molded rocket bunny kit or something that mimics that MV designs FRS maybe. I would like it to be more subtle though.
Some kind of wheel and tire combo.
Should come out to 20kish at this point.
That's all i could come up with for now since I've never dreamed of this kind of budget. lol

gatorbushmen · 08-22-2013, 12:04 PM

RurumariGhost · 08-22-2013, 12:07 PM
