People tend to get bored because they aren't looking for parts anymore or planning what to install and they start looking for a new car/project to fill that void.

I for one have this issue, and am working towards not succumbing to it.

I agree, this was my philosophy of modding. change one thing at a time and enjoy the change. But soon, it was worth more "bang for the buck, saving time" if I did the whole suspension mod while the car was on the lift. Why not do the camber plate/rear LCA/Coils/arms when its all right there and needs only one alignment vs multiple alignments with each individual parts? That's what got me.

Same with tuning. If I get one part, tune, one part, tune, very inefficient. So I ended up getting a turbo kit, rather than nickle'n and diming here and there for 2 ~ 3 whp gains.

I think since I have the resources now to mod quickly, that made things difficult to "hold off". And having a group to compete with each other with mods to be in the "top modder" of the group.

I sold my car for other reasons, not because I was "bored with it and move on to another project", but not enough space.

Here are some shitty pics of my new ride, getting some stuff done this week and next week. Bone stock other than a complete debadge so far..
