Question for 2QYK4U,

How much have you spent on your car?
Somewhere around $20K thus far. I'd have to gather all my receipts to know for sure.

I don't think my fitment issues have anything to do with the car being an AP2 vs. an AP1 (or even an MY06). The fitment issues had to do with the flanges on the piping not lining up correctly, along with the 02 sensor bung on the test-pipe not being in the "proper" location.

Uhm... I dunno if you could count this but:
Bought MY00 with 58K on it.
Tranny/Clutch Fluid
New valves/retainers
Timing chain tensioner

Yeah, 06 was a very... cyclical year.

Next year:
tires
perhaps a MY02... who knows.

Oh god, '06 had me burning a lot of cash on the money pit.

LoveFab GT1 Turbo Kit (with FMIC, RC750's, fuel pump, etc, etc.)
LoveFab 3" exhaust
AEM EMS Tune/dyno
AEM UEGO Wideband
Defi Boost Gauge
Apexi Turbo Timer
Greddy Profec E-01 with remote switch
ACT PP/Disc/Comptech Flywheel
18" SSR SP1's with KDW2 Rubber
Mugen Hardtop
Mugen SS Wing
Amuse R1 front
Safety21 Rollbar
TS Diffuser (now sold)
Axial Flow SSK

I'm probably forgetting some stuff, but a lot was done to the car during this past year. For '07 i'm thinking about selling the S2K and getting an E92 335i to start a new project with. If I do decide to keep the car though I will probably end up getting Bride/Recaro seats and harnesses next. The addiction never ends.
