Things you regret doing to your Z
 
Stole this off another forum. But always fun to see what people regret doing.

I'll start...regret knowing the exact amount I have spent on the Z

Literally smacking its phat @zz cause it looks so good...
Public spanking of your car gets you some interesting looks from people...

Econ 05-11-2011 09:21 AM

buying door handle covers, followed by trying to paint my own handles.

FuszNissan 05-11-2011 09:29 AM

Buying Spawn Aero Products

m4a1mustang 05-11-2011 09:32 AM

Adding my FI exhaust. I probably would have been happier with something a little quieter in the cabin for a daily driver.

Installing the touring pedals in the manner I did. I wound up paying several hundred dollars to fix my mistakes.

OrangeJuice 05-11-2011 09:34 AM

I regret not buying one yet :tup:

Red__Zed 05-11-2011 09:35 AM

Well you had 18" resonators, I have 12" resonators and I'm happy with my FI CBE.

whoady4shoady 05-11-2011 09:54 AM

Nothing yet, but Im sure after I drop it with the FI exhaust where I live i will have at least one.

cptspeed 05-11-2011 10:07 AM

I regret failing to get a clear bra

ClemsonWill 05-11-2011 10:16 AM

I regret not taking my time with the Stillen Gen3 install. Scratched my powder coated pipes and didn't do the cleanest job cutting the hole.

3SeventyZ 05-11-2011 10:26 AM

I regret not getting the touring package. Kinda.

b1adesofcha0s 05-11-2011 10:26 AM

I regret not getting the sports package.

Econ 05-11-2011 10:32 AM

I regret not getting the sport package

I regret not getting 6MT

I regret not getting it in White

:shakes head:

Juruki 05-11-2011 10:51 AM

I regret buying my F.I. exhaust cuz it didnt let me lower my car like i wanted. Had to sell it and lost $500 of my hard earned cash.

onzedge 05-11-2011 10:55 AM

I regret curb rashing my right rear wheel.

My well-developed powers of rationalization and denial prevent me from regretting any money spent or modifications made.

bflosabre91 05-11-2011 11:07 AM

i regret not getting a clear bra faster.
i regret not getting sports package.
i regret not looking harder and waiting longer to find a Z in blue instead of black cherry.
i regret purchasing my car through a friend.

kielbasa16 05-11-2011 11:08 AM

I might say impulse purchases.

For example I bought the Evo-R front lip, but before even installing it decided I wanted the Stillen front bumper. So I had to sell my lip and my Injen CAI.

Im also debating buying the ART pipes and selling my ERZ HFCs.

To be honest, aside from the lip maybe Im happy with all my purchases and installations, its gotten me in tune with my car even if I do end up changing my setup less than a year later. Id rather buy and enjoy something than continually wait for a better product to come out.

SPOHN 05-11-2011 11:09 AM

Regret not just going ahead and forking out the big dough for some JRZ coilovers. I will have them next year.

tonythetiger 05-11-2011 11:11 AM

regret not being able to have the Z in every color. love all their colors; blue, red, white, silver, black :drool:

Hambone1 05-11-2011 12:19 PM

Clear bra. I was in the "dealer add-on rape" mode when they offered it for $700 at purchase...that bullet in the foot hurts like a mother

Sibze 05-11-2011 12:21 PM

Wow, this thread is depressing

What do you regret doing to your Z? And you can't say "jizzing in the gas tank".

Sibze 05-11-2011 12:23 PM

Nothing, I was happy with everything when I had it

AllForTheCash 05-11-2011 12:28 PM

CF Fiber Rear Diffuser and front bumper piece. Don't like the CF look. So I will be selling those!

Wait, that doesn't work as an octane booster? I feel so mislead

Let me know when you are selling those bad boys hehe :tup:

I regret buying my Nismo shift knob. Only because I learned its such a pita to get the stock knob off and on the fence. Might sell that

Otherwise, happy!
