What mods would you do again, which do you regret?
Stole the thread idea from an OLD thread on audizine, and I'm curious to see what you AF guys think.
Out of all the mods you have on your car, which are your favorite that you'd recommend to everybody? Which would you tell everybody to avoid so they don't make the same mistake that you made?
Favorite mods:
STaSIS Coilovers - the cornering is SO much better than stock. It makes my car look better and perform better, how can you get better than that?
SB Stg 3 clutch - Being able to launch as hard as I want without worrying about my clutch frying is a very nice feeling.
Least favorite mods:
I wish I had stuck with my stock stereo. The aftermarket one sounds good, but it's a PITA cornering with 100lbs of stereo crap in the trunk. Also, I wouldn't mind having a stereo if I had gone with a quality head unit (I have JVC now), a light 10" sub (25lb 12" now), and a quality 4ch amp instead of a 2ch for the comps and a mono amp for the sub.

favorite mods- forge 007, short shifter, zimmerman cross drilled and slotted w/ EBC green stuff pads.
worst mod-speedtuning chip.
need to do again-my FMIC is mounted like crap cause it was 19* outside when i did it. i wouldnt mind bigger piping and core either.
none of this matters right now, cause im looking at a possible motor swap (not by choice)so its gunna b a while before i get to mod again.
