The valve cover looks dope.

SRT seats, and adjustable Koni struts...w00t!...hopefully comin soon.

I did find out that the rear sway I have is a discontinued 22mm Mopar sway. You dont see them go for any less than $125-$150 on the forums. I got it for $20

:roll:

this thread is pretty sick. it doesn't make me wanna buy a neon (they're just ugly cars IMO), but it def does make me wanna go rip my car apart.

so what happened to her this time?

 

[Cheesenip]

would randomly cut off, so i replaced a few sensors but havent taken it down the street to see if that was the problem

I think the neon is one of those car's that if done PERFECTLY right, it can be a great fun car, but Im just really not into them. Only assholes drive neons around my area.
(nothing on yu nips, you doin it right... lol)

i like driving my 97 more than i like driving my SRT. the 97 is alot more fun to drive, only slower.

I got nothing against Neons. My friend had a 99 and it was fun to mess around in. It handled fairly well stock; better than my old Protege.

 

[Cheesenip]

booger handles bery well for a neon with bad susension bushings lowered on stock struts.

Slower, LIGHTER cars can be a blast. I want to pick up a second car that fits that bill. My integra was a perfect example (ls auto), no real power mods (pre N20). So it was slow, very slow. But it had some nice suspension components and tires. But DAMN could you just chuck that sucker into a turn, it was a blast. It didnt feel slow either (lighter cars usually dont). That lighter weight just makes everything better. Im only in a 3000lb car now but DAMN it feels like a tank compared to the teg. Every time I drive a friends little car its just fun! Even if the car is something like a Toyota Paseo. LOL

 

[Cheesenip]

exactly like that between the booger and the SRT.

Its a odd feeling, because you KNOW the heavier car is MUCH faster. But that little low power car is just more fun.
