A car's worth is only measured by the love of it's owner. / Ok, so how much have you put into it??

Well, I have probably put in about 20 hours of labor ever since I got my car. This is basically getting the car to a clean and still stock stage. After 14 years of use, the interrior collects spilled coffee, candy, money, and other crap like a sponge. My neighbors cannot understand why I spend so much of my time on a 14 year old car. Little do they know...

Well just last summer i was over 5k and i just bought 2 B20A's, Custom Adjustable Cam Gears, AEM Big Brake Kit, 2 Autometer Lunar gauges. So i would say about $8k and much much more in the next few months as i still need some of the more expensive parts like Intercooler, Turbo, Zdyne Gold ECU, Etc. Its never ends but im making my dream come true before i go back to school in september.

so many of my friends couldn't or can't understand why i don't sell my car for something newer. i would say just to get it running correctly i have put a few hundred dollars, and then a few more hundred in upgrades, so my car might have only a bit over $1000-$1500 into it. but i have definitly but COUNTLESS hours into it.
