Not as much as in 2001.
ITR parts are much more widely available.

It's still true though. Its not really a matter of how much parts cost, cause one can always find excuses for new parts, etc. Anyone with a hobby like cars, or cameras, or computers, can tell you its basically a never-ending money-pit.
The nipple is the only intuitive interface, everything else is learned.

Just curious, why do you care so much about his decisions? I assume you 2 are not kids and he can probably make a good judgment for the sake of himself.
Proud to be stock engined, but modified everywhere else.

I know he wants to get back in the game.
He's only making excuses because he can't
exactly afford the parts he had before. I try
to show him ways to cut cost, and he says, "really!? Damn, that's cheap!"
And, " ITR's have dropped in price. I miss my baby."
He wants to do it. And I'm just trying to help him shake
any negative thoughts he might have. Back in the day,
if one of us needed money for a part, we'd be happy to
help out. I'm trying to help him again.
No matter what car he got, I would help him out. But I
know this is his dream car. Relive the dream!

Try taking him to the dealership again. Who knows with an R sitting right in front of him for a good price he might pick one up like he did when you guys first went looking for an R.

We actually went to the dealer twice.
The first time, there were two PY ITR's.
Beautiful sight it was.
We went back to pick one up the next day,
there was only one left. While we were inside
signing the papers, someone stole the shift knob.

Just a mere suggestion. Let your friend make the decision on his own without any persuasion.God forbid but it would really suck if something were to happen again, be it another accident, or even theft.

That was totally uncalled for man. Not to mention very immature.
Back to the subject, I have dreams of doing things to my R that are far beyond my financial ability @ the moment. But, I will get there eventually & enjoy the journey all the way. It's a good thing to have friends like you in life that will always be telling their friends not to give up. Stay @ him!
