Just thinking.
If you added up all the costs of your mods onto the price of your car, could you have got something better/bigger/different.

I bought my MY00 5 door for 22K, add PPP 1800 quid. Plus PD 7's 1000 quid and AP 6 pots 900 quid.

Brings a grand total of 25.7K For that money I could've got
P1
STi 6
EVO 6/7
BMW 330 on Import

Ok, follow up question. Do you regret spending the money on the extras.
Me. Nope

However the scoobynet/SIDC comminuty is the best mod I ever did. Saying that it's also the reason why I spent the extra in the first place . For example I blame Docjock for the AP 6 pots and wheels If He had'nt taken me out at bedford i'd have been blissfully happy with my standard brakes Thanks to him I saw the light.

I don't have to pay for the upgrades so can't comment

Please tell me where I can get AP 6 pots for £900, and I'll have 10 sets
