Howdy!

Post by millerwelder » Thu Jan 09, 2014 10:09 pm

I just picked up an '03 SXT with 108,000 miles from a neighbor for $500 bucks! Wouldn't shift into reverse but some booger bushings fixed that! :) (He know's and is glad it's fixed) I'm pretty excited bc this is my second Neon. The first was a '95 highline (also my first car) but met an untimely demise when my ex-wife wrecked it :/ I'm not going to go as crazy this time around, instead of body kit ect. I'm going to focus on good handling :)

I would post a picture but I can't figure out how,lol

Welcome. Handling eh, def go with a nice set of coilovers and a Prothane bushing set, along with an r/t rear swaybar. Should handle amazing after that

That's the plan :) It needs motor mounts pretty bad, leaning towards solid mounts because I'm not too worried about vibration. If I get sick of it I always have the Superduty or the bike :)

yep def go solid if you can deal with vibrations. AGP or Bwoody are both good options

Nice find, I couldn't find anything worth while for less than $1500. Welcome!
