I have had my 92t for about 6 years now.

I aproxx. dropped 12k into it. Its a freakin addiction! Thats more then the freakin car is worth.
As much as I love the mk3 supra Im going to start saving up for a 93-95 rx7 wit the ls1 swap.

Anyone else crazy like me????

Mines not an addiction. It's more like a sexually transmitted disease without actually getting the sex part.

LMAO 12k is NOTHING ;)
(I have close to 7 in the head alone)

Ha....that makes me feel a little better.

As far as my plans are another 8k will finish it off to my liking.....probably spaced out thru the next 3 years if I keep it that long.

Spending a lot of money on these cars comes with the territory. Unless your mk3 has been well kept and maintained over the years, and / or you are satisfied with stock / Basic upgrades, it is going to get pricey.

The past few weeks i have been kicking myself over what to do and how much more money to spend on my car. Seems like the only answer I can think of is every last dollar i can. :)

I love my car, and as much as it pisses me off when something breaks or i need to upgrade to something pricey, it always seems worth it in the end.

True that..the money i quoted does not even count maintenence...just aftermarket mods whether it be performance/looks/sound system.

But seriously, who is satisfied with driving a stock supra????

No you don't. Building what you want with the right parts is not a reason for therapy.

when you spend a lot of time and money to make a previously normal and beautiful MK3 look like this:

THAT is when you need therapy. :biglaugh:
