"I talked to the local race tech shop and he quoted me $150 + parts for the shock and $240 + parts to do the forks so I'm looking at around $500 by the time it is all said and done, I'm thinking that is a little to spendy for my cheap ass, think I'll put on some new tires and see how that works out and maybe try and retrofit a later model shock to it."

I hear ya.

Sounds about right for the shock. Throw in the linkage bearings that will likely need replacing and you'll be over $250.
Fluid change on the forks = cost of oil. ATF is commonly used.

All in all a very inexpensive sport, in my opinion.
