So it's the end of the month and I was looking over some finances and I was trying to make sense of how much I spent on the damn TL this month. (thanks ALOT guys)

so my question, I've dropped about 3800 into my car this month

now how much have you guys spent on your's since you got it?

haha, this should be revealing...

 

New transmission = $3300
NSX calipers = $200
EBC Greenstuff pads = $35

I can't afford Rotors to even put the calipers on now..
I think im gonna just resurface the rotors and hope for the best!!

Dam you spend more then I did this last month, what happen to your car where u had to shell out soo much?

 

in total.. from start to finish..

i'd say i spent along the lines of $8k~...

 

in total... ±3000.

 

i'm gonna say right along the lines of 3000-3500

 

Somewhere in the ballpark of $5279.59. That includes 2 sets of tires, 1 replacement tranny (the other one was covered), 105k service, 1 headlight, drain plug fix (helicoil) and 16 oil changes.


Guess I can't complain too much after 7 years and 107k miles. She's rock solid now (with a lifetime warranty on the tranny) and good to go for at least another 100k.

 

gonna be over 7k in 2 months cuz going to do a 6 speed swap hehe

 

1000.00 give or take

 

$20,000 since 2001

 

lol.


GG!

 

YOUR ANNUAL SALARY!!! DOES THAT INCLUDE THE BUYOUT AFTER THE LEASE WAS UP?

 

im lookin at 6gs

 

He said in the last MONTH...not 10 years... If it was the last 10years w/payements gas and everything I think it would be $50,000+.
June of 2000 $5000 down and $500+ month 60 months....

I dont even wanna think about how much i spent since I bought her but in th last MONTH i spent $3500, I got kinda happy when I seen some of your posts but then realized it was how much most of you guys spent since you bought the car!

 

you need to read the first post...
he's not asking how much you paid and spent on it....
just asking how much you spent after buying the car
ie. mods/fixing/etcetc

newb...

 

damn looking at how much you guys put on it makes me feel good maybe 1g so far a little less

 

around 4-5k in my tl and then around 3k in my cl and now with to turbo project another 3.5-4k. so more than enough.

 

In last month just for JDM parts $400 an around 9K on TL since i own it.

good luck for doing your 6 speed swap under 4k... i just spent almost 4.5k on my 6 speed

 

Wow with only 14 post you have 6 speed swap done. Did you change your user Name? B/c I think there only 5 TL swap that has been done.
Can we see this TL

By the way I'm going get this done with Phee. He got it done for under 3K

 

About $10,000. It cost me about $3500 just to get the car to run when I got it in 2007 because it sat for over a year.

Two months ago I dropped $760 on the crankshaft pulley and belts. Luckily I was able to do that myself.

 

lol nothing happened to it...I just joined the forum this month and started seeing all them crazy mods you guys did and bought a bunch of stuff (JDM pieces lip kit etc.) that drove the price up.

Yeah, i don't really care so much about normal wear and tear costs lol I was curious how much you guys drop to make your cars the way they are.

I don't speculate i'll be spending much more on mods. last thing I want/need is a new head unit and MAYBE subs and amp

 

$760 on a crank pulley and belts? wtf?

prolly around 3k for me

 

$35 for all four pads or just the fronts? where are u buyin from?

 

The pulley was $255 and the belts were $55 so that is $310 right there. Then I bought the fluids, tools needed to replace it, and little shit that goes with it so it added up to $760.
