haha thanks. it has taken a lot of time and a lot of money to get where i am now with the cars. I have realized i am pretty much the king when it comes to doing a budget build. with everything i am putting into the car right now, i likely didnt spend (out of pocket) more than about 2800$. That includes a tranmission with a clutch and LSD, coilovers, all the suspension components, seats, wheels etc. if i can make a trade for something i already have i do so, or ofcourse i do buy a lot of used components making it a lot easier to afford big projects such as this one. Since i have met so many people in north america in the game, i tend to catch word of stuff being sold off before a lot of others find out and i end up making a reasonable offer before somebody else finds a way to make a deal on it. sometimes i even get to just make payments on it since alot of these sellers i know personally. its good to get out there and be part of a larger community as it helps when it comes to purchases of legit quality components for a more than reasonable cost.
so for anyone wanting to build a focus with a shoe string budget, start taking notes and meeting people. Doing your own work is the best way to get ahead if you know what your doing. alternatively, you pay somebody like me 1/3rd of what a shop charges, save cash and fund my builds even more LOL
