Set a budget triple it then you have a workable figure.Not trying to discourage you but I have only just finished my 400kw build (engine only) and I am starting to have to repair/rebuild other things down the line. Seriously sit down and figure out how much you can afford to spend divide it by 3 and use that as the budget for your build, cause it always blows out, no matter how good you are at money management.Injectors, cooler, fuel system, intake, exhaust, valve springs, gearbox, clutch, diff, turbo. Or as Ralph says just throw a new diff bush in it.... If you are handy with tools you can save money on labour so long as you do it properly. If you are literally going to do cheque book racing then add labour to your build and it will add up, plus tuning. If you want my opinion, don't do it if its your daily driver unless you are prepared for the repair and maintenance regime that comes with owning a car with that much power.Just my 2c Edited 10/10/12 09:44 AM by unclewal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
