well got bored and played around with some stuff,mainly the wheels

Here are the pics...Let the hating begin

When you got wheels that stand out like that... Car needs a damn drop or it looks like a clown car!

Will look proper with a drop IMO.

^ yea I agree. I'm prob gonna throw a set of 1gn springs on it for now,til I can afford some BCs

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Tue Mar 20, 2012 12:54 pm

Or save the headache and do it right the first time with the BC's. Or what about Tokico HP blues and lowering springs. 1.4'' drop all around? Rides like stock. Plus that setup is around $400...

NeonNick925 · Post by **NeonNick925** » Tue Mar 20, 2012 1:18 pm

1gn springs are 40 bucks looks decent...

needs lowering and any other front bumper... i think that one looks weird.... but the purple looks pretty good actually.

Yea I want a 01' R/T bumper super bad,fogs, and possibly chrysler grill....all to come in due time

I would just wait for the BC's

no headache of pulling apart struts+springs and getting a new alignment... just to do it all over again when you get the BC's

Not anymore... The price of Tokicos is outrageous now. I was damn close to coilover pricing when I built a complete lowering setup with tokicos and springs this past fall.

OP that looks good. Did you use Metalcast?

I believe thats the name of it...its from duplicolor was like $8 a can. the bronze is their wheel paint.

I already need an alignment anyways so im not trippin off that haha. I still have to replace my front lower control arms as my bushings are busted and Sean has a set with urathane bushings already in um. Still up in the air as to what im gonna do with the suspension for now...might just jack the srt strut/eibach sportline combo i have on my 2005 sxt since im gonna be giving that car to my neice she wont know the difference haha

This.
$40 R/T springs on stock struts won't last you long. Factor in a not so fun install and then having to get the car aligned.
Do it right the first time.

I'll let you know if I end up selling um

been thinking about getting some new rims in the future... I'd love to boost this motor but Cali laws suck. I'd have better luck swappin an srt motor in and that's Wayyy outta my budget ATM

NeonNick925 · Post by **NeonNick925** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:21 am

Finally got around to doing some lil things to the car. I bought & installed some 3way 6x9's so I have music in the rear

will be installing e-brake rebuild kit(srt rear swap) an putting new parking shoes in. Also made it to the local junkyard an scored some trunk springs so I don't need to carry a 2x4 anymore lol. Gonna paint the calipers aswell. Need to get a rivet gun so I can install the hood struts.

I have made up my mind on suspension. Will keep quite about it til it's done. Will be sweet.

Ordered a custom catch can. Will be painting it purple like the strut bar.

NeonNick925 · Post by **NeonNick925** » Mon Mar 26, 2012 8:56 pm

TailLights tined purple

different angle

Painted the calipers to match,still gotta do the fronts. Did the back cuz i had them apart yesterday to install new ebrake hardware and shoes.

I think that's just for the struts, not with springs as it shows. They used to only be around $300 or lower before the tsunami. I bought my first set for $200 in '09

Ordered the Bwoody Solid motor mounts today

my top one is torn and busted. should feel better,the trans mount was filled with urathane before it was installed.

NeonNick925 · Post by **NeonNick925** » Mon Apr 16, 2012 4:55 pm

well look as though i might be picking up a durango off a buddy. if that goes thru, im gonna turn the car into a full auto-x/road coarse racer. wont be the fastest nor the prettiest BUT will be fun to beat on during the weekends. Will keep yall updated. Still waitin on the solid motor mounts. If i get the durango ill be selling my SRT viper seats & eventually parting ways with the rims for a lighter more practical setup
