what do you regret doing most to your car?

[619dsmer]

Running a test pipe with no S-AFC.

why, whats the big deal?

 

[fulanititoo8198]

Using stock shocks, cheap lowering springs, and having one of the mounts come off of the strut while I was driving. Should of just bought the Teins.

 

[Jason_99ozGS]

Getting a n/t (will be for sale soon, gonna gets me another 4g63 or a 6g72 next, turbo of course )

With the Laser, nothing at all... This has been the perfect "beater car"... Well there was this one time at the track that my clutch was going out and I decided to take it down the track one more time. I do regret that since it would have made it all the way home instead of completely giving out on me 1 mile from my house...

 

[InfamousEclipse]

Adding a turbo (to my 96 RS) ... hasn't been reliable all year... hasn't been drivin in 4months...

 

[GsXtacY325]

1) letting friend race and launch hard (knock knock, luckily under warrenty)
2) buying 17's when i wanted 18" Axis Se7ens, now one of my best friends has them...DOH!!!!
3) not taking advantage of 16 yo panty droppers in love w/ 2g's :
4) not getting a honda ......j/k
5) the color black alone is a love/hate relationship... all black car owners/former black car owners know this all too well.

getting a b16g instead of a 50 trim

 

[Coldandafraid]

nothing so far... its been a learning experience. And, I havent replaced the motor yet.

 

[Airpoppoff]

Buying it

 

[RACER-X]

Hey matt if thats the way you feel... you can always give her to me.

 

[T_S_I]

i regret racing it and making it not run right

hahahahaha yes Devil thats the truth, now its running dont race it!!!

 

[IMMORTALSPYDER]

I regret not dynoing it before mods. At least I did get a track time.

 

[Turbo_Frog]

I regret lowering my car and getting 18's without having done an allignment and a camber kit. I have yet to do either and my pretty new tires are already wearing really bad on the inside. I also hate how my back wheels butterfly because of it, looks so so bad.

 

[MyEclipse5]

i regret not saving up money. Now im paying her off and have no money to mod her . I always regret buying her, at this point i could have my old 1.8 and a nice quad to ride the trails and ride with friends. But when i am driving her, and she gives me some boost, or even though shes a 1G whenever i see a nice car (WRX, EVO, SRT-4, etc etc.) and i am staring at there car as i drive down the road thinking (wow thats pretty) they are ALWAYS staring back . then im like "its all worth it"

 

[DSMSpyder99]

my biggest regret would be buying my new turbo (not installed yet) before a LSD.

 

[greathuskie]

there is a part 2 to my post

since i HAD to ahve a built motor (i was a dumbass) it took me a year and a half to get all the necessary parts on my car instead of just taking the car to the shop and having them drop a new motor in right away

i regret that more tehn anything

 

[Colossus]

Sometimes I regret modding my GS...the kit..etc etc....I used to love shows...now I never hear about them anymore...realize how much money I wasted..how much time I wasted. It still impresses everyone here....but then I got into boost and everything with my TSI and now GSX...and I cant help but look at my GS and feel disgusted with its lack of perfection and have this feeling of 'thats rice' in the back of my mind.

I love it to much to let it go though...my ideal car would be a 99 GSX wtih the 6 bolt.

 

[Redmachine]

really getting down on it whilst I forgot the A/C was on .... snapped the belt and left a reverse dent(a peak on top of the hood.)

I don't regret getting the N/t but I am looking for a gsx already

 

[turboTSi1320]

Being careless about where I parked it.. People dont know how to open doors I guess? Also spending to much money on a stupid girl that's probly going to lead to nothing. :thumbdown

 

[MrPikolo]

Starting a 1g awd project. Bit off more than I could chew at the moment. Lost a few grand.

 

[GSntncT]

Ripping all the mods off my car.

I've been meaning to ask you about that, cause I remember back in the day.....

What I regret the most I hate to say is not buying A GSX. I also regret putting 780s in the car.

 

[philipkrotch]

Buying it

i have to agree with this one.....

 

[ldstang50]

buying it

 

[Revenant]

Buying 2 of them.

 

[heavyD]

My biggest regret would have to be selling my del sol VTEC and buying the Eclipse. I traded reliability for speed. For the money I have spent in my Eclipse, I could have turbocharged the old B16A twice over.

 

[dsm4life]

got MBC turned boost up to 18 with 20 spike on stocker T25 needless to say car is sitting waiting for an upgrade
