easily over 6K, just on upgrades (tires, suspensions, rims, strut bars under and over, lights, st205 conversion...etc including other misc parts from toyota; oem parts wise)and fixing oil leak here and there...what makes me mad is, i still don't have enough money for the cosmetic paint job and the st205 engine yet....those are the two biggest humps to jump.
