I want to take over your maniacal project if you want to bail out now and save time, money, and blood. So if you have any project that is 60 - 90% complete talk to me.

out side of the cost, it might accually be beneficial for you to find a stock or near stock car, especially if you are in the learning phase.
I know that when I picked up my GSX, I already knew tons about cars, but until I tore into the GSX, I didn't realize that I knew jack about DSM's.

once I tore into her, I learned quickly and was able to apply what I already knew about cars to help me, along with the DSM boards and the vfaq (gotta love vfaq!!)

It probably spent more than if I had picked up a 90% done project, but I got more self satisfaction, learned more, and knew the work was done right.

even after near completion (it will always be a work in progress) starting from a near stock car only costed me about $4000-$5000 in parts plus my own time.

it has everything i could want from a DSM minus a 6-bolt, and that is coming upon my return from this shitty sand box.

check out my garage, the recipe for my GSX is there, just add labor.
