your probably lookin at around $25k to get a VR SS from standard to 10s and be a little reliable at least.

its gonna cost him a whole heap more if he has no knowledge also. movies and tv shows make people think that getting a car to run a 10 second pass is a walk in the park.

Basically if you're a cheque book racer you will be robbed.

If he's in the know, then surely he would know how much it would cost to build a 10 second car?
