Tax Season - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Tax season usually translates to car parts season for me. With that being said, a couple options for me would be to get a nice set of adjustable coil-overs (Cusco or Bilstein), with the other option of getting a nice set of wheels and maybe some lowering springs.

One of the wheels I've been drooling over is the TWS T66-F

$2550 is a pretty penny though. Is this website legit? They seem to have it cheaper than a couple other places.

What are your guys plan for car parts season?

2015 was my first full tax year at my new job and not as a student at all. I'm scared that I might actually owe money to the govt this time T_T

I hate tax time. I do work as a private contractor so my returns are minimal at best

Luckily, I'm pretty content on where the car is or else I may have pulled the trigger on a turbo + supporting mods.

Depending on how much I get back, I may put half down toward remaining principle on the loan and rest in savings.

I spent last years on a turbo. This year I have a child so it is all going into savings. I really want seats and to redo my whole suspension.

tax season used to be "car parts" season, but ever since I purchased a house, my tax return pretty much goes back to the government as property tax

I had always bought a new set of tires for the past three years.

I had been considering it for some time well before tax season, but I will have a Jackson Racing supercharger coming my way soon.

I pay like $200 to state every year and get like $260.... so $60 to fuel up my car.... Lucky you!~

With $2k id get new wheels or a lip and interior tune up.

Who in the hell gets 2k for tax returns?... I'm hoping that I get a pretty penny for my tax returns. Help me pay off some credit and put it towards the loan on my car as well as put most of it in my savings. It'll sit in my savings until I can find out what I want to do next to my car.

I should be getting some coin back as when I took my vacation pay as a check I hate to pay like an extra $1500 in taxes on that one check on top of the usually $600 or so !!!

Aside from the year I only worked 6 months (just graduated) I've never gotten more than a couple hundred bucks. Already bought most of my goodies for the year so any refund will end up spent on AutoX and HPDE time, metaphorically speaking that is as I'm not going to say "Ok the $200 for the track day came from here here and here".

When I was going to school and working I was getting around 2k-2.5k in tax returns lol. . .

I'm not taking classes anymore so I'm not expecting to get as much back.
