i do not regret any mods, because i always knew i was gonna go F/I. I never bought an intake, or silly cooling plate etc..
What i do regret though is the skimping on certain things, which caused bigger problems down the road... like going VAFC instead of a better tuning setup, or looking for the cheapest place to get work done etc...

I guess i'm used to mine, but I dont smell it at ALL. Love the lil angry bee noise it makes. Makes me wanna get an exhaust sometimes but this car is so freaken loud(wind noise) as is, so "i say no a no no"
PS move down to fl We don't have an emisions testing
ya but its still illegal in the united states. you should replace that wind noise with the amazing sound of HKS hi-power.

550 injectors- back to OEM now
VAFC (twice)
Buying a full set of 17 inch wheels and selling them at a loss before I even put them on.



Before I mention the next two, there are times when I wish I was purely stock
SC sometimes
Gears sometimes.

ricks smoked sidemarkers - fogged up. . replaced them with oem jdm ones and havent looked back since

debadged "s2000" emblems - put them back on and the car looks much nicer.

krankvents - squeeek squeeek squeek.. made my beautiful new car sound like an old putt putt

thats about it. every other mod was fine, even the invidia exhaust.. didnt regret getting it, but i did change it out for a single soon after.

gears sometimes why?

i'm getting my 4.77s put in this week finally. for me i think the higher rpm would be better because my car is quieter, almost silent between 3-6k rpm at certain throttle position (HKS+TP)...

Because of the speed calibrator problems that some of us are having. Mine was simply a bad connection, but it would pop up at the worst times. I think **fingers crossed** that I have it fixed now, but I am not sure. As for the gears themselves, no problems there.

The only mods I regret were the N/A mods I used to have (cai, j's header, t1r70 (although it sounded amazing), and VAFC2).

yes, that was implied by the 'finding the cheapest place' mod

i can at least laugh about it now... not too much because i still know the guy is ripping other people off...
