Intervention, Please!
Every new group buy that comes along I want to participate in. I so want to buy these raceng stiffeners in red that just came up on the group buy tonight. It's like some kind of compulsion I'm an addict! It started with one little LED. Said to myself it's just a little light bulb what can it hurt go ahead, i can handle it, buy it. Then I went to a car meet other guys were there, said look at my forced air intake, or you should try dipping your rims. Before I know it I'm up at 3am searching the group by list for deals. And arguing through PMs over which powder coat I want on my shift knob. I'm buying OEM armrests, shelling out big cash four Toms taillights. Drooling over short shift Systems and stiffening rods. Wrestling with myself over which cat back I want and which Gibson guitar I should pawn to get it. I need an intervention!

No way. If I'm going to ruin my life by dumping an irrational amount of money into my car so it can depreciate all to hell, then you're going down with me.

I know dat feel. What i did is add up all the parts im gonna need for FI. Everytime i want something i just look at it and tell myself if i get it thats XXX $ further away im gonna be.
If that doesnt work look at some build threads or shop cars. Thousands in parts, stocknor near stock power. If all you care about is a nice looking ride and not power then i dont know how to help you

I'm sure the street version will be legit, but I look at it this way. My car deserves the best. So full GT top end everything. I'm in favor of bold and functional.

The next time you get the urge to mod your machine ..... just ask your SO what she thinks. If you can't convince her that the mod is worth while ...... just say NO to it! ![]() humfrz |
