(put one in right when I got it at 105,000), two timing belts with everything at approx. $1,500 each (put one in right when I got it at 105,000) Put the second timing belt on when the water pump went out. two sets of tires that I am half way through on the second set at about $3-400. One great set of Tuner D seat skins $300 and about $500 on misc stuff. Rotors turned once and new rotors and brakes recently all around. $250 for the turn and break pads and then $550 for new rotors and pads. In summary: $850 per year. What I consider "one-time" costs. Not including what I call "recurring" costs. I.e.gas, oil, filters, etc. or .07555 cents per mile same consideration as above. 1995 N/A five speed with everything. I run the AC all the time and I am always cornering hard, breaking hard and reving it up.
