These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

1,200 was the original purchase price.
I have done the whole brakes system, (p valve, master cylinder, rotors, shoes, pads,), that was 1,200, I used all Honda Branded Parts.\
Had a set set of yokohamas put on that was about 400.00
had the Power Steering Belt and Lternator belt replaced, about 50.00 bucks
NGK platinum spark plugs, 60.00 bucks.
had the starter and distbutor replaced, that was about 300.00
battery replaced. that was about 120.00
I installed a sony deck with pioneer speakers, but I am about to replace the sony deck, I have about 150.00 in the sound system..
I have had the tie rods and ball joints on my car replaced, that was about 800.00
Then had the rack and pinion replaced, I believe that was about 600.00
Done numerous oil changes and transmisiossn fuild changes at about 28 dollars a pop...
I have done the Timing belt, water pump three times with tenisoners, and the balancer belt, it was about 7 hundred for the shop to do it, each time, using Honda OEM parts.
Then I had the struts done using the Monroe Quik Struts. 160.00 x 4...640.00 for a set plus 75 bucks in labor..thats about 705.00...
Then just had the Motors and Regulators replaced with the Honda OEM parts, and everything from the switches to the regulators and the motors to the little clips, was replaced, that was about 700.00 in parts and about 300.00 in labor. but at least I have working power windows and they work flawlessly.
Then you count in the numerous amount of trunk lids, JDM parts and other things I have on the car and in storage, and yah I think I am somewhere in the area of 6,000 dollars in all for everything on my car and sad part is that I am not even done yet..Last edited by RagingAsian; 01-31-2012, 08:30 AM.

$40 - various maintenance
$30 - used left driver tire
$1 + $60 - for new VSS and to have someone else install it
Close to $500 for registration.
That's all I can think about at the moment.

I bought mine in 2003 for $2,250 with 180k from the orginal owner with all her recipes. It had the original clutch, never been in a wreck and the steering wheel looked brand new.
I did the H22a and tranny swap back in 2005, I think that ran around $3k for myself to do, bought it directly from an importer, had to get the power steering pump and hose from a junk yard, and do the timing/water and clutch before I stuck it in.
The a few weeks back I pulled the H22a out and just did a complete rebuild on an f22a6 I got on craigslist, might have $700 into that motor (Complete head rebuild was $300)
Replaced the headlamps several times for rock chips/holes.
Car has 350k on it now and hopefully will run past 500k easily."There is nothing wrong with you that an expensive operation cannot prolong."
