it shouldnt take 2 years man.

if you got a job, SAVE! take out only what you need to pay the bills. and maybe $20 for fun on weekends. the rest put in a savings account.

hell go through your old things and sell em. old cds, video games, toys, etc etc. and keep saving. ask for $ for holiday gifts and b-days.

its my plan i'll let you know how it works out.

i got a friend with a supercharged b16a
i got a friend with a turbo'd H22 in his civic cx which ran a 12.2 before the 700hp turbo kit
i got a friend with a b18c in his 6th gen hatch
i got a friend with a b18c in his crx
and i got a friend with a turbo'd b18b in his teg

now... i have a shitty SOHC which can barely keep up with a stock prelude (intake and exhaust on the lude) (i lost by a fender)


so yea i'll admit i'm very determined. big problem now is that i ost my job and moved to a rural area. i can't find a new job and all my bills are going to be overdue very soon
