What would you do with a thousand washington's?
I want kw coilover's but I just can't get past spending it all on one mod.
I think I'm going for progress springs, kirk long tube, catco cat, afx pc and maybe msd ignition set up. I'm performance oriented first, look at my mods. What would you buy for your neon with a grand.

Do I haveta spend it on the neon? Id rather put it in my down payment fund for the new truck.
But if I had to spend it on the neon, Id put it in the bank, to pay for replacement parts and oil changes.

well i am spending 1300.00 on the mopar stage 3 coilovers so that takes care of a 1,000. but if i had another 1,000 to spend i might just start gathering parts for my srt-4 motor swap.

suspension.

You sayin' I drive a 4x4?
Actually I am seriously looking at suspension parts. I'd like to go faster, but it would be nice to handle better and be lower.

I did that for free.
Its not as appealing as it may sound though. Neons are very cramped.

You pay money? You should really make a trip over here. Was at a badass rave last night with more women than you care to count.

I just used my $1k to pay off some debts sooner.
Smart I am.
Not like I can install the mods while I'm here anyways.

Go suspension first, I did, and am completely happy I did. However, I spent more than $2500 on my suspension:
Stage II Mopar coilovers
Suspension Techniques adjustable sway bars
Energy Suspensions polyurethane bushings
HA f/r strut tower bars
G-Racing 17" Seki rims w/ 215/40 Parada Spec-2's
Made a hell of a difference, now it's point and shoot steering......and that's at stock ride height(soon to be lowered)
Now then, if I had another $1k, I'd buy the CF hood and trunklid I want so bad.......
