Some of the best deals you have snagged?
So I'm always on the look out for awesome deals. I'm the KING of doing the most with the least $$$, here are some of the most memorable deals I have snagged:
$1,500 for a complete DSS 9" rear end kit. These things retail for like $6,500! $1,400 for a complete set of Welds with drag radials and skinnies. I actually paid $1,700 for these, but they came with an extra set of tires that I didn't need and sold for $300. $475 for a DSS aluminum driveshaft. This was great, but I new I wanted a 9" kit and I wouldn't be able to use this DSS with it so I sold it. $749 complete 1 7/8" stainless XSPower headers, 3" offroad x pipe and 3" catback. This didn't fit perfectly, I had to ding the pipes in a few spots, but that didn't bother me. I've had to do that to headers and exhaust from every company. These performed EXACTLY like if not better than systems costing 3 times as much. $137.71 Volant cold air intake. This was a typo price at a website. I should have bought multiples and resold them, but I didn't know how good they were. Turns out they work GREAT! I've never been a fan of metal intakes for obvious reasons so I jumped on this one cause it was plastic. $111 two 275/40 20 90% tread stock Pirelli rear tires. I bought these when I was gonna run 20x9 all the way around, but then decided to run 18s. $100 bought a used TSP 231/236 cam TWO YEARS AGO! It's still sitting on the shelf. I want to run 11's with just bolt ons before I put this in. With the 9" above and 4.57 gears I think I can get there. So, you guys got any killer deals you wanna brag about?

Got a hot blonde to go out with me for only riding in the Camaro and dinner at Applebees then "do the wild thing" with me at her place and then I went home. Figure that was a $300-$500 savings depending on how things are priced in your area.

lol, I didn't ask 'why Applebees' I posted that he should say it was at a classier place. Where I'm from, that's a very small step up from saying "I took my hot date to McDonald's", the step up being that you can get booze at Crapplebees
