How much money u spent on ur FC??

[samfc3s]

I just wonder how much money everyone has been spending on their fc??it seems that my FC is in the price range of a FD already??n i still have power-FC to buy etc........

[FD3SNuttah]

i have spent a 1100 quid so far, including delivery and purchase of the vehicle - edit that includes all the bits needed eg, plugs, oil, wings, mirrors, lights, wiper arms, and welding.


I can see this turnin expensive! i still have to pay for MOT and a respray, some rims , exhaust....... etc! i cant run an FD just yet, i havent been long out of uni and this car is only meant as cheap fun!

£1000 for the car
£100 for a water pump
£250 on welding
£70 on a BOV
£40 on an FCD
£270 on an exhaust

Not bad all things considered.

I dare not think about!!!! ALOT!!

you better buy T2REW a LARGE calculator!!

As for me,  i try no to count but including the car about 2.5 - 3k but its still on the increase, especially with the money Jay charges for his \'hand me downs\'....

[t2rew]

im getting to the point of not adding it up any more because its too scary to think of. im still not anywhere near you though ay grizzly lol.

i actually paid about 3300 for the car in the first place. thats about £1 for every mile i did before it went pop. then its been about £14 per day while its been off the road. so its not that bad really.

Some one once told me if you have to ask you can\'t afford it, This is very True with Tuned RX7\'ns.

And if you want some advice don\'t do my Trick, Build a realy tuned Seven and run a Mildly Tuned one as well as an every day Runner.

i dont think they have to be tuned to qualify m8      

[Grizzly]

Is it True that the T2 is an Entry level Rx7?? Keep me away from FD\'s!!

[t2rew]

:rollin  :rollin  :rollin its ok as long as they keep putting those 0% credit cards throught the door.

[antnicuk]

as you guys know there isnt much difference betweem the two cars, (i have built both now)
Wecant do things just cos its an older Tii,  at the end of the day a Front mount or a big single for a TII isnt any cheaper than one for an FD.  Boost controllers and air filters etc are all pretty universal so again no saving there.  Some things are actually cheaper for an FD,  like exhaust parts,  Body kits and ecu\'s because of the large numbers of FD\'s about.  So i guess we are paying to be unique.....

its always cheaper to be a sheep and follow the majority ... but then if we did that who would drive an RX7 ?!

[jetpilot]

What a scary question!!!!

Reckon about 5 - 5.5K including the price of the car!

[Brett]

Well I think Grinders beaten us all, think He\'s only spent about £1300 total including all his toys and both cars!

[samfc3s]

my car and all bit cost me nearly 6k now.........should i continue spending money??cos i know i will never get the money back
