Default Calling it quits for now............

I decided to stop the turboed sporty project ,its just sucking up alot of cash. There is always that chance of me blowing my motor to and harley motors aren't cheap. Im thinking when i finish paying off my scoot ,go buy a buell blast and turbo that ******. They are pretty cheap and easy as hell to work. Since i have spare heads ,cyclinders and pistons from when i did my conversion i can put those on the blast. This way if i blow up the blast motor i can always rebuild it cheap ,since buell parts are cheap here. I just tore the engine down again and gave her some buell heads ,pistons and cams. Also on a sad note my girl and i broke up ,long distance relationships are stressful.On a good note i can leave my bike a solo now and head to the bars worry free.

Damn, ever since I got my new hatch all my money is getting shifted towards it. It's been so long since I've had to worry about money, but now I find myself spending every penny I have on new parts. Now I'm in the process of moving so that really throws a wrench into it(security deposits, transfer fees, first month rent blah blah blah).

The only thing that stops me from giving up is how much I love cars, turbos, etc... I just remind myself how much it means to me and I forget about how much money I'm throwing away.

Hey, sorry to hear about your girl and your HMT project. And I could totally relate on money. Sold my civics, you'd think I'd have money sittin' in the bank, nope all goes to bills. I wanna buy another civic and when I went looking for the few bucks I sold my last civic for.... all gone, like 20 bucks and some change in my checking account, oh yeah I also have a hamilton sitting in savings. So for me no matter what I sell that belongs to me I end up with no money and I lose my stuff

And I know someone's gonna mention why I bought my V carton of eggs, that's on a whole nother system, not one dime from my civic went to that car... all bills.
