1. bad custom exhaust setup - bad shop
2. replacing oem shift **** - oem is perfect for tracking... aftermarket is too low for quick shifting
3. buying tanabe springs
4. cheap lugs
5. modding before i started tracking the car

Intake plenum spacer. I technically didn't buy it; it was already on the car when i got it. But i didn't realize i had one till i was looking in the engine bay one night. The vibration i was feeling was from the intake rubbing the factory strut bar. I didn't wanna ditch the bar since it's adjustable, but then i noticed the intake was getting a nice groove dug into it from the spacer pushing it upwards.
The strut bar had washers on the bolts to raise it up (3 or 4 each bolt) but i was just tired of the whole thing. I noticed less power, but i did NOT notice vibration, and that was worth it all.

I regret getting my headlights worked on by CinCity Designs and Clearcorners.com
I regret not buying the Nismo Edition 350z.
I regret doing a GTM twin turbo install. Not because the kit failed but I just don't like those crazy custom kits. I like OEM.

Mods that ended up pissing you off/regret?
Was thinking about cutting a hole in the Z for the cf air duct, but I dont want to regret it later down the road. Any mods you regret or mods that ended up just pissing you off?
