I sell parts, pay off debt, take off insurance let evo sit for undetermined amount of time. New parts cost less than old parts and car is at a reasonable level.
I never said I was planning to sell shit then rebuy stuff right away. I am going to space it out some. I already have a stock turbo/manifold that someone is giving to me for free, instant savings.
Guess I didn't think it was complicated or maybe I didn't reveal the whole thing.
Bottom line is I need money now as I have overspent being stupid make 750whp evo. So it was sell the car or de-mod it some, I am choosing to demod.
I will get we will say 6k or so from selling stuff, it will not take me anywhere near 6k to put the items I was talking back on, maybe 3k.
= money back
Make sense?
quick breakdown:
sell turbo kit ~5k
Sold fuel setup (injectors/pump/hardwire kit) ~1k
New stock turbo - free
new stock mani - free
new downpipe - 350
new UICP - 250
new intake - 300
upgrade to 2.5 - 800 (no idea really, waiting to hear back)
some porting and coatings - 300
new injectors - 600
new fuel pump - 200
so 2800? Rough ballparking everything....
And like I said, I save 100/mo with no insurance and not driving it saves more too.
Obviously I am losing some money here, but penalty for going balls out, trying to rectify it.
I had other plans to take care of all this before deciding to sell, but they have since stalled as I am stuck with 2 mortgages on my record and can't refinance right now which is screwing me some.
I figured most of you guys would think this was smart, maybe I missed something lol. Seems like no matter what I post I get some form of crap (part of the game when I change my mind every week I suppose
). Maybe it was just me not fully conveying my plans though. dunno.
