Not counting the ten trillion hours I have spent, I can honestly say I have spent less than $3000 in hard cash! I'm not finished yet though.

A very rough breakdown of my poor old datto Car $600 Brakes $1600 Suspension $2300 Rims Tyres $1800 Cage $900 Diff $500 Seat and harness $600 ECU $1600 Intercooler $600 steering wheel and dash $500 Fuel system $1200 Cooling $400 paint and panel $3000 Engine and box $2200 rebuild and engine modifactions $5000 Turbo and manifold $3000 Clutch & flywheel $800 I am lucky to have had a lot of machine work and workshop giving to me for free. Im sure I couldnt have afforded to have paid someone to do the conversion. not included is all the consumables and tuning could probably add another $1500 for dyno time ect. So all up $22900 I thought it would be more than that Im sure there are lots of little bits and pieces Ive missed So probably close to 30K.Its no show car either needs some more panel and paint work but cant justify the $$$ as long as its rust free and mech A1 im a happy camper Andrew

so in the posts so far we have close to $200k worth of Datsuns. On a BMW site that would be your starting price for 1 car.
