Yeah, I know what you mean, it's a tough call to know when to stop - when you're saving money in the long run (for doing it while it's apart now) vs. spending a huge amount up front.
I know that I'm moving within the next year, and possibly won't have my own garage anymore. Plus I knew that I'd be doing a lot more driving in the upcoming year. Both of these thoughts factored into my decision.
That generally pushed me towards doing as much as I could now - though I have a hard limit on doing anything that requires pulling the engine, since I just don't have the facilities to do that in my tiny garage.
That being said, I've shot well over my expected budget in both parts and time. Fortunately, I have other vehicles, and I can also bike 90% of the places I need to go, so I can approach the project at whatever pace I need to in order to get it done.
