supra2nr, I still dont understand how you dont have room or money to fix your car, But you are getting a whole other car that will most likely need as much work. And whats wrong with spectators? As long as they dont talk shit, Their there to see, Who cares if they dont race. And dont put a wing on your car.

well look at it this way

5 grand
i will have a n/a car with new life,
true i can always upgrade it to a turbo
but i will have to change the compression, tranny, ecu, injectors, and so on

during this time, i wont b really able to race for money,
yes i can always save up,
but then by that time, i will b living in the streets,
you see the longer i wait, the thinner my wallet gets
i cant really got to work witout a car
thats why i need it asap

now with 3 grand
i can get a turbo car
this way, i get to go to work
and race for money at the same time
so this way, i wont have to live on the streets

right now im out of work, im living on my savings
and its running thin
this is why the turbo car is my option

cuz in the next few months , im about to go to auto-tech school
become a mechanic, so i can open my own shop,
during this 15 months, i wont have any real spare money
if i get my car fixed, it will stay at the same status till i finish school
which means , i cant make the extra money that i rely on,
thats why i need to race, and to race , i need a turbo car

You can still rebuild your motor for less than 400$. lol. And then buy the turbo car anyway.

400? really where, the pistons that i want are a hundred dollars a piece

how can i rebuld the engine for less than 400

i told you, im not gonna do it half assed

even if i can fix it (which i cant), and but the turbo

what am i gonna do with it?

i cant have a third car,(insurance is too expensive)
my other car is a caddy, u kno how high the insurance is for that

i need sumthing to race with, either i get in the next month
or i wont get it till 08

and trust me, i refuse to jus go watch races until then

if you rebuild the motor using your existing pistons, and all other parts, Just getting the parts associated with a rebuild, It will cost you about 400$. Then you can sell it, as a working car. You dont need upgraded pistons with an n/a, That is pointless. The stock ones can take anything that the n/a can give them, along with the rest of the bottom end.

the pistons are as fried as the coronel's chicken

Oh well you never said that part, You said you just spun a bearing....Which at most would be a new crank and con rod, and a rebuild and gasket set.

my bad, i jus found out too

all im sayin is, either i do all that i can to make it faster
cuz anything else will be a step backwards for me

you see i rely on the extra money that i make with my car
winter is about to come, and racing is gonna stop
if i get the turbo right now
by the time it gets hot again,
it'll probly have new,
custom intake piping,
new headers
and a full 3 inch exhaust
and an updated intercooler

so come time when raving starts, i can make money again
