Oh... geez.

Hm.
Looks like im cutting a HUMONGOUS hole in my pocket here.
Not to mention the giant crack in my bumper which now looks crooked .... my mom backed into it (i swear she doesn't use the rear view mirror or side view).

Welp.... How much would u ***estimate*** all this to cost (item + shipping + installation) ?

Greddy Exhaust Catback – 590$ Listed
Hotshot CAI 250$ About (less a bit)
Hotshot Headers 460$ About (less a bit)
Unorthodox racing Pulley Set - 400$ (Belts? Ack!)
Ground Control 4 point suspension 898$

JWT Cams and Camshafts.... nah. I'll do the major engine stuff when i get some real money and time.

(Add on about 1020$ for tires / wheels from Discount Tire... but i think i have a hookup there that will give me around 700 - 800 for the 4 set)

Shipping and such will put me over the limit (4000$) most likely.
Not counting installation...... Geezus.
I've heard Carboys over on bissonett by the beltway does good work, but no idea on the price for installation labor.. not to mention ordering parts.

IMO, its best to get a shop to stick the parts on for me, I'd rather not trouble the Houston SE-R people with my constant whining and b*tching about sticking parts on my car. Nonetheless, if u all want a project or something, im willing to put all the money up for this ...

One problem.....
Im 21 which means No creditcard or whatsoever , especially living with stingy parents. I do have cash i've worked for over the summer however. My parents (i hate but i love em...) don't want me to get a credit card... and they rather NOT have me waste my money on my car. Eh... what else am i going to spend my money on? I've worked hard for it dangit!
Stinks, totally. Hoping to work something out with my money and someone else ordering for me? (Mail / Phone order doesn't trust the "trusty" American Green Paper!)

Thanks for the ENORMOUS amount of help George! Any chance u can email me a contact number ? Maybe we can work something out with my hard cash and Courtesy Nissan.
