i was told i should start a log and ive been thinkin about it for a bit and thought i was tooo far in... but here it is from the beginning to where it is now..
started as a stock se no options but ac and an auto...


the start: stock stealies, m3 mirrors, 4x4, wing.... fart can, tint, and the neon 3rd brake light cover vinyl .....

ebay front and rear sways and painted valve cover(old amps and cap in the rear..



removed side moldings, put the stock mirrors back on, got a cf hood oem style for $100!! vinyl eyelids and mesh grilles for the front, and painted the inserts black

ebay coilovers... yes i kno... hopefully they will be gone by summer...


Led 3rd brake light


led license place light


brushed aluminum gauge surround:


and mostly how it is today...



also done many small things...
power windows
trunk carpet
power trunk release
glove box light
trunk light
grey suede door inserts
silver hvac
shifter and ebrake handle
black headliner with no sunroof and oh shit handles
interior leds
blue gauges
oil pressure and volt gauges mounted on the pillar
map light mirror
deck and mew pioneers all around
injector cover

engine/powa
e3 spark plugs
granatelli coil and wires
autozone filter in the stick box
custom duals
and i think thats all for now...

aboutr the e bay coils ... i've heard alot of bad things about them.

you have and drive them ... how bad are they really ???

( just curious )

love the car btw

what are the future plans ???

the ebay coils are pretty bad... altho on decent roads they are for sure bearable.. they give a good drop and my struts haven't blown yet i don't think..the ride is deff rough tho... i would just say just get some good springs and do it that way...
but as far as plans.. nothing much for now... 5 speed swap when this tranny goes...and i have a magnum cam coming in from BRR... but thats about all planned.

Car looks alot better than when it started out. Hopefully everything goes well with trans swap.

goin to the yard today to get stuff for a 1gn rear disc swap.
also got a mag cam from brr

sweet man

only got one side.... im gonna have to wait i go home and check yards there... fml but im half way there and i got some paint to clean them up a bit before they go on.

Make sure you use some antiseize on the bolt that connects the control arms to that knuckle. This bolt is known to seize inside the knuckle making it a pain to remove in the future.....

will do thanks for the heads up

took some pics today.. just washed her up some.. and some pics of little things ive done..









door inserts



gauges


switches


headliner

Nice pics but what is up with your exhaust man, kind of looks different...

the exhaust is something i did in the shop at my school... kinda a temp/ trial...

just found out there is a chance my car was flooded!! but i cant know fully till tomorrow when i get back..

so yesterday was my first day back in cali with my garage to work from again instead if a bag of tools in a lot..

but ne ways did some small things for now..

new fuel rail cover just an idea i have another one if i change my mind.. lol



antenna delete plug.. i just found this on my workbench and it fit pretty well to cover the hole of my antenna



and a new radio. i have been needing one my old one wasnt lighting up anymore and just needed to be replaced..

Injector cover looks familiar


Is that a chop or is that already done?

the exhaust looks good man, what about getting some bigger tips on it and callin it good

the beginning of my summer parts pile for the neon.
Derek(OB)'s old Teins (finally no more ebay coilovers)
SRT rear sway
Mag Cam



gonna get some new struts and get the rest of the parts for the rear disc brake swap and gotta find new valve springs hopefully this will all go faster when i get a job and a paycheck.. lol

nice dude, should be pretty sweet

Win. It's never too late to go back and fix stuff the right way

tell me about it but its gonna cost as much as the ebay fails to replace some stuff it fucked up lol

Lol. Did you get a legit antenna delete plug, or did you make one out of a different plug? I'm curious as to what you used.

nope i got lucky i came home and found it on my workbench just chillin there and it fit perfectly almost..

ordered new tokicos last night!! hopefully the redo of my suspension will happen sooner
