    I’m never a fan of blocks. Even if you can’t afford the leafs now you’ll end up wanting to go with leafs..

    I mean the blocks will give you height but the leafs will still be shot. You don’t gain anything other than height.

    I'm over what my Dakars can reasonably hold, you should just wait until I get Alcans and then you can have my Dakars for the price of shipping @Jamesboy2233

    Uhhhh I can't remember exactly what it cost but when I bought from headstrong I got 2 Dakar leaf packs plus AAL for like $370 total... Granted I was buying shocks and springs for the front at the same time but they gave me an itemized bill and I seem to remember that it was under $400 for my leaf springs... A few years have passed since then but you should shop around. Sticker price isn't the same as what you pay when contacting seller through TW.

    Well since the trans in the Z is the same from the 240sx and 180sx as well as 200ZR and 200SX I ordered a B&M short shifter for it since I have to reseal the shift turret anyway

    I work, but I'd like to have even more to work on this thing with so I thought about finding a sugar daddy, but that's hasn't panned out just yet.

    One of the perks of being done with school and have no student loans left.

    I used to flip a lot of things on eBay when I was in High School. I'd sell computers, laptops, servers, LEGO's, and even Tacoma and 4Runner parts later on.

    I also fixed MacBook Pro's and iPhones on the side. Made good money doing that on the side. I'd tighten MacBook hinges for $40 and get it done during a class period, and I'd change iPhone screens for $100.
