Well, to bad it doesnt run, about to do a t2 swap, hopefully I can keep it looking good when its done with a new paint job. Should be a freaking clean '86 Rx7 with sunroof, nice rims, good paint job and a loud BOV, thats all I want it for, mid 13's and the noise, well that and to take turns @ 240mph lol

The more appropiate question Is how does can your FC owe you rather then "How Can you Afford your FC"?

Believe me, these cars own you.

Although I'm an Oracle Support Analyst, the salaries here in Greece suck major monkey ***** After having to change clutch disk and flywheel, brakes, almost every little electric motor besides the alternator, the audio system, and lately rebuild my turbo , I'm now with as much as 500 EUR in my bank account (and its still the 1st of the month )

Today or tomorrow I will also drop off my car to have a new radiator made Mine decided to finally give up....

And I still need new rear rotors, oil cooler lines, a new mast for the electric antennae, and a mild/partial paint job....

I spend like 40+ dollars on gas a week and too much on food so I can't even afford to put the adjustable struts I bought in. That and I've put 10k of miles on my car in 3months.I'm bout to hit 150k.

That and every time I end up having some spare money something breaks on my car like the alternator.

At this rate I am gonna get a TII in 4 years ARGGG!

I don`t believe the last post........ but for the record I repair bank machines and currency counters. It`s the easiest job I have ever had, I could probably afford a FD but I found this 88 vert. for a grand and just had to have it. I will probably graduate to a FD in a year or so, after I redo my kitchen and some other projects.

Current vehicles are:

00 Eddie Bauer Expedition (wifes car)
01 Chevy Impala (company car)
86 Conquest TSi Turbo (toy)..it`s for sale BTW
88 RX-7 convertible (new toy, old toy has to go)
