So you starved yourself to pay for 350z parts.

I kinda did the same thing. I bought Buddy Club Coilovers/Bassani TD Exhaust/JWT Popcharger/Motordyne Plenum Spacer/Eibach Camber kit/Wheel Spacers etc. all in one month. I couldn't eat out, or go out with my friends for a month. However at age 21, i was still able to eat at home with the parents lol.

It's the American way... and the way of 99% of the kids on here. Living beyond their means to try to 'impress' others...
