Wow...

So you'll finish turboing a perfectly good Neon, sell it and buy another Neon with shitty paychecks... and do the same thing? I believe that is the actual definition of retardation.

Also, a V8 swapped mustang sure isn't much on insurance... until you get into some accident and they bust your ass for not telling them about the larger engine. Then, they wreak havoc on your claim and your rates then go sky high.

so basically what your saying holds true for an srt swapped sxt too??

I dont know where you got this idea that im doing that shit from... To keep this in simple terms sean, IM NOT TURBOING THIS CAR PERIOD..

Im saving up my money, buying all the parts, and doing everything at once.. If i still have this car by that point, then ill put them onto this one. If not, ill put them onto the clean shell.

[TheRandom1]

Because you say you're buying all of the parts... OF COURSE someone would assume you're turboing this car you twit.

So, why sell this one for another one with all of the work you've put into it?

i already have a buyer lined up. As ive said in the past, i love my car to death, but with living in the damn rust belt, it sucks ass.
Im going to be picking up a clean shell for under 1k. Ive already done my homework, and from what ive seen, down south i can pick up a 2002+ with motor/tranny problems for around 800$..

What im getting at here is, i would like to have this car for the next 5 years or so, and this one isnt going to last that long, so i want to get a good rust free shell now and stick it in the garage over the winters to keep it nice.

Hence the reason why im buying all these parts right now.. The massive piles of parts just keeps adding up lol.

[TheRandom1]

I think you're entirely wrong on your car lasting that long unless the pictures you've shown of the undercarriage completely hide rust.

[XxWhiteNeonxX]

now you understand

[TheRandom1]

Still think you're wrong.

i'm kinda with sean on the whole insurance thing..

mmkay first of all... i don't understand what the big deal is about
insuring an srt.. i currently pay $579 every 6 months, and for an srt
i was told my insurance would then cost me $582 every 6 months..
thats a $3 difference. zomgwtf.

and secondly, i'm not sure who you're insured with, but even a v6
1999 mustang was quoted at $1200 every 6 months for me. thats
with the good student discount and a multi-car discount when i was
signed with my parents. a v8 1999 was $2500 every 6 months.. so
i'm not sure which year you planned on getting, but i know with my
paychecks i couldn't even afford the insurance alone. my girlfriend
even pays $1400 every 6 months for her 2004 v6..

anyways, say you WERE to wreck the mustang. your insurance
discovers you're packing a v8 and forgot to mention that part.. well,
you'll probably be driving a geo metro, and finding it hard to come
up with you're insurance payments. unelss you're the next bill
gates, then maybe you can haz a moped.

my insurance warned me that even with my lip kit and exhaust, i
would be billed extra if i were to get into an accident. as soon as
you begin to modify your car, they assume its to make your car go
faster.. which leads them to believe your driving habits have
become sluggish and careless.

/rant

question: you have this large list of goodies, but you want to sell
your car. are you going to put these goodies ON the current neon,
or save them for the srt? i are cunfoosed.

[INVUJerry]

I told my insurance company that I was planning on mOdifying the car. They said 0 fucks were given, but unless I wanted to pay out more money if I wrecked it I'd still only get money for a stock car.

[esteinmaier]

My car is considered to have previous damage based on the value to replace the interior. So if I were driving it on the street and got a paint chip, it would be totalled. Liability and comp only for me.

[INVUJerry]

The only time I ever got a little trouble was when I showed up to the insurance office with nbers from the track on it. I just told them I won't do it again, sorry, and I was on my way.

first thing, sean is who brought up the mustang thing, not me..
I said im selling the neon. I didnt say i was selling it to buy a mustang..
Second, where the hell did you get the idea i was getting a srt? lol
Im going to continue to run an sxt with a boosted 2.0L.. Maybe a 2.4 bottom end on the 2.0l sohc head, but thats different.

All of this was brought up by sean, not me. I said i was selling the car period. Im keeping all the goodies, and even buying more as we speak... But there going into a CLEAN SHELL. /story

Im going to be selling my car and looking into a truck. No im not lifting it or any of that shit, i want a beater that i can haul stuff in and that if i wanted to, i could tow my car to the track.

With that being said, the money for the clean shell is already accounted for, so whatever money i get from this neon will go towards the truck.

I told my insurance company that I was planning on mOdifying the car. They said 0 fucks were given, but unless I wanted to pay out more money if I wrecked it I'd still only get money for a stock car.

yeah my insurance company knows im " modifying" my car too. They dont give two shits either. They just wont cover them and would only give you money according to what the value of a stock neon is worth..

My car is considered to have previous damage based on the value to replace the interior. So if I were driving it on the street and got a paint chip, it would be totalled. Liability and comp only for me.

all i got is liability and some fire insurance thing. They said they go by nada value which i looked up, and even though its an r title, they'll give me 5100 for it lmao

You should try reading. I'm NOT actually the one that brought up the Mustang thing. It was brought up, I mentioned how stupid it was. The same thing happens if you SRT swap or turbo a regular Neon.

Um... not at all what you said via PM last night. You said you wanted a car with a clean shell that you could keep for 4 or 5 years, where'd the truck come into this?

Also smarts... if you have liability they won't give you anything at all for your car. Look it up. Liability means if you hit someone, they will repair the other person's car, NOT yours. They'll give you a bit of a sad look and say "dude... that sucks" about your car.

yes, i have liability, and yes i know what it means.. I said on top of the liability, my insurance company has some kind of fire insurance thing for an extra 7$ a month which i got to be safe..

yes, i did say i want a shell that i can keep for 4 or 5 years to mess with, which if you read above i said the money for the clean shell is already accounted for... Which means that if i sell this neon, the money from it can go towards whatever i want, which in this case is a truck because i can make money if i have a truck. plus, i can haul my neon or anything else i want.

[TheRandom1]

So you're worried about your car Manny'ing? Cuz that's all fire insurance covers.

[XxWhiteNeonxX]

So you're worried about your car Manny'ing? Cuz that's all fire insurance covers.

yeah i am actually. I mean none of my harness is hacked liked his supposidly was, and my car has a new mfs and a new mfs plug, so it probably wouldnt come from there either, but just knowing that our cars are known for randomly burning down on their own scares me. I mean hell, chris's was stock under the hood and it caught fire.

[INVUJerry]

Sean trollin!!

well, actually, i brought up the stang' because you said in your FS
thread that you wanted one. so that was my part, not sean. and
why not get an srt? recently the neons i've been looking at were
like $5,000 for an sxt or $8,000 for an srt.

and if you're making less money at work, how are you going to
afford not one, but two vehicles?

i think you guys smoke crack or something lol

yes, i did want a mustang which is why i was looking into selling my neon.

At this point, i want a clean shell and not a mustang. The neon will only be on the road in the summer and stored in the winter. During the winter ill drive the truck.

And i dont think you understand the concept here.. IM NOT SPENDING 5K ON A CLEAN NEON. Dude, im spending like 800 at most for a clean shell. Im buying one that needs motor/ tranny work with a bad interior. Because its getting gutted, and will have a different motor and trans anyways.

[C1DoG]

OK so to get it straight. Your not buying a 'stank, I mean "stang. Your buying a neon shell for 800 (great deal). There should be nothing else about it. I think you cleared it up pretty well.

Y U SO MAD!? YOUMADBRO? YOUMAD?

i'll admit i forgot that part. i do recall you stating that though.

i'm honestly glad to hear you're getting another neon and not a
mustang. cuz i don't care about progress on a mustang. mustangs
are like ass holes. everyone has them.

OMFG someone actually understood me!! i swear im talking to people with autism or something on here lol.

yeah and it will be bought from down south which means no rust whatsoever.. Worst it might need would be new struts or something.

im not getting mad, im just getting annoyed. Im pretty sure i explained the whole thing like 87 times before you or anybody else understood it.

[LowNSlow]

My nephew has autism and he is most likely smarter than you.

Please educate yourself before you try to bash someone with a disability.

My cousin has autism. Im not bashing people with autism, im saying that these people cant read and are dumb lol.
I clearly explained myself 736471784958 times and then they finally understood.

I was getting annoyed, i swear every time i update my progress log people make me explain myself when its my damn car, my damn life, and my money.

Im going to have one of the mods lock my progress log on here, all it is, is people calling me stupid, dumb, or immature for doing things to my car that they dont think is right. Hell, half the people on here that bitch dont even have neons.

[iThane]

im not getting mad, im just getting annoyed. Im pretty sure i explained the whole thing like 87 times before you or anybody else understood it.

i was only kidding.. you did explain yourself about the shell, my bad
for forgetting that part. but i was just giving you examples of what
would happen with the insurance if they discovered you threw a
larger engine into a car.

and my sister is diagnosed with autism. the only problem she has is
with writing. i'm pretty sure autism reflects socialism anyways.. so
whats that have to do with the ability to read?

I understood you when you first said it. I was just trying to stay out of it. Sean comes onto my progress log and says stuff also. Sometimes you can ignore and sometimes you can't.

Anyways.. How far down south are you getting the neon?

Im picking it up in or around myrtle beach south carolina area.

[C1DoG]

Yeah definitly should be no rust in that area.

[XxWhiteNeonxX]

Yeah definitly should be no rust in that area.

yeah, like i said im buying one that the interior is a pig, the motors shot and the tranny is shot. Its not like im going to use 140k mile motor or auto trans anyways lol.

[haseebgill12]

I read it first time, understood it, then a mustang came from somewhere evolved from a v6 to a v8 and gave birth to an srt which = a truck ?

Lol just kidding man, Good luck with the new plans.
