I'm on what most would consider a tight budget. I've learned to save up some cash and just keep an eye out for the deals. The best I've got so far is a used T56 out of a Viper for $500, Ford 9" (practically free), and C5 calipers (all 4) for $200. I do all the work myself (except machining) and do not have a specific time for completion. I'm hoping to keep it under 30K.
