Tax time!
*This WILL NOT turn into a tax-return debate thread, we've gone over that enough times already so if you care just search for it*
If you're getting a return what will you be doing with it? Savings? Paying off debt? Car parts?

Re: Tax time!
I'm torn between upgrading my computer or buying car parts...
For computer stuff:
24" LCD
New processor - Intel Core2 Duo something
SLI motheboard with new DDR2 RAM
Add another 8600GT video card
Car stuff:
More tires
Used Evo wheels for R-compounds
Rear swaybar
Get some touchup paint work done
O2 housing

Re: Tax time!
Either tools for the shop or turbo for the car. I really have no idea if I will get much back this year, since I only worked 1/2 of last year.

Re: Tax time!
I think I will split mine between savings/investments and Evo parts. I need some summer tires and I'm going to do the ported intake manifold and throttle body. I'd also like a nice set of cams and a larger FMIC, but I'll probably wait on those.

Re: Tax time!
Considering I won't have spent my xmas $$ yet that was all for the evo, I'm filing asap and taking a shotgun to my last credit card, ever ever ever. If I do get anything for the evo, it'll be some minor cosmetic updates, but more than likely that will wait until further into spring.

Re: Tax time!
Good question... depends on where i'm at... if I have my current list of wants for my car completed, I will probably end up saving it all if at all possible.
Otherwise i'll finish up the list and save whatever is left.

Re: Tax time!
Well, so far I have bought a set of Recaro's, a new 6 bolt for my GSX. Planning on picking up a new turbo, dsmlink and some other misc crap to actually make it run good and proper for once. Yay for taxes.

Re: Tax time!
DSMlink for the Eclipse, and maybe cams... Depending on how much I get back. Or if I don't win the auction for an exhaust system for my bike, maybe I'll get that system new, instead of the cams.

That made me
My plans are to throw some into savings, throw some towards my mortgage, and we'll see how much is left, but hopefully pay for a tranny rebuild. |

Re: Tax time!
I just recently got my two credit cards paid off, so my only debts are student loans, my motorcycle, and a miniscule ammount for tools! So for once I can spend my tax check on fun things

Re: Tax time!
I was just thinking about this the other day.
Probably new lifters for the M, throw some into savings, or a new computer/server setup. Possible down payment on a new vehicle.
