I do something similar, although I have a dedicated "car budget." I have a spreadsheet of all of my planned mods (including maintenance that needs to be budgeted for -- things like intake valve cleaning, replacing coils, etc) so I always have a good idea of what expenses are coming up, and can reorganize my mod budget if a maintenance or repair item pops up sooner than anticipated.
