that's what I said! But hopefully they will be worth it. I'm ordering the rs2 vented fenders tomorrow or Sunday and then the bumper. All these items have a 4 month minimum wait time so I want to order them now. And then I'm going to get ready for the Brian Crower stroker kit. I was hoping this was going to be something in a warehouse but apparently stardast is out of stock. It's all good but I'll keep y'll updated with the engine mods as well. Typically I would start with suspension mods but since the engine is getting built and this car is going to be in a paint shop and it's really not going to be driven that much, and I don't want new brakes and suspension mods just sitting idle.

Just keep in mind if you're planning to do the BC Stroker kit "the right way" for long term plans and potential boost in the future, you're probably going to be in the $15k+ range. That's not including the turbo kit.
Best of luck though! Interested to see pics of those bumpers installed.

What do you think the estimate on something like that would be? Parts + shop hours at a real deal shop.

I submitted my PayPal address to the distributer today. Hopefully will have an order put in by this week for the bumper. No pictures guys, sorry. I almost got an itch to buy a 280zx today but held back lol. I only need one project for now lol

So I ordered the nsm bumper today. This has been a stretched spending spree but I want everything ordered. So the next big phase is going to be paint. Then suspension... And finally engine mods. I think I'm going to have to max a credit card to buy it but I've been looking at a supercharger. We will wait until the time comes until we discuss more of that lol

was thinking the exact same thing when I saw the post last night .Your money OP, but maxing out credit cards for car parts can be a pretty bad idea .Maybe you have guarantee money coming or some other plan we don't know of and you won't hold a balance long. Your business of course, but I'd think long and hard if you "need"to max those cards .

You are gonna have a bad time with that mindset.
Please don't put yourself in credit card debt, or further ruin your credit making a choice like that.
Save first, spend later, unless you can pay it off promptly.
