Tint is a big one for sure.

Lots of members are putting suspension in their top 3.

I think most, if not all, respondents that have suspension work done would put it in their top 3 mods.

That's sorta what I meant. I think I'm clearly missing out on suspension. If it weren't so great to have then it wouldn't keep appearing in everyone's list.

I forgot you were still on factory suspension. It's rough out there for us outsider G37's (anything but a solid roofed RWD). I went the Eibach route a while back and do not have any regrets. Whenever I see a G37 now I immediately notice the ridiculous wheel gap, especially on the AWD. My friend has a AWD G37 sedan with factory suspension and the ride is not degraded by much, if at all, depending on preference. The only reason I'd go back is to sell the car.

I don't know if I'll ever be able to own a car again without at least my Big 3 mods:

1) Lowering Suspension w/ Supporting Parts
2) Wheels/Tires
3) Exhaust

Yeah I cheated a little lol. Couldn't help it . I tried to open the door for others to include mods that they felt went together for a single purpose or more they had to install together like my headers and exhaust. Or if you wanted to include springs, coils, sways all inside a beat box of suspension so you could name 2 other mods ya know

As of now, I'm gonna say:

1) Coilovers - LOVE the stance I got with 2" drop + more stability
2) Top Speed Y-back - Had this for a year and I love it
3) Autokits Rear Diffuser - Love the aggressive look

In this order:
  1. Swaybars
  2. High-performance 3-season tires
  3. High-flow cats
Most everything else is cosmetic or incremental, whereas these mods are legit.

Tint, conservative drop, maybe intake or exhaust even though they have been proven to increase hp very little. Intakes don't really do much but at least they are not as obnoxious as most aftermarket exhausts. I didn't mention tuning because there are so many issues with them. Unlike bolt ons they are harder to reverse and just harder to live with.
