Congrats spdfrk!
I remember buying my first house at the age of 24 or 25. It's a big step.

A new house is a great thing. I've been throwing my money away on rent (and cars) for too long. At least my townhouse has a garage ... although not one you could wash the 8 in, just a good storage spot.
And what are these 4 new things you got? Must be wheels ... so let's see.

That's a big brake kit. Probably $2000+ at least. Or you could just buy slotted rotors and paint your calipers. Kind of a pain to do just for looks though.

They are GREX (Greddy) 6-Pot break kit in chrome... they cost more than $4K.... if you wanna be a really baller I'd get Project Mu kits... real JDM and slightly cheaper for under $3K... Buy u gotta have a set of big wheels to fit over those breaks!

I was going to order the Racing Brakes that Rishi has up for sale (was quoted 835 USD Shipped) for the front set of aluminium calipers / brackets and pads.
But for that money and what i need my brakes for, its not worth it. I dont track the car, so im not going to waste money on a BBK. if its just for looks i can spend almost a grand somewhere else like towards a SC or turbo.
