Some shop in Scarborough



In total I had 4 stripped wheel studs :( Did the two on the rear driver yesterday, and two on the front passenger tonight. Also lowered the front 0.25" (really wanted 0.5" so I might adjust again tomorrow). The car is pretty much as ready as I can get it for the trip to Carlisle tomorrow night.

I used a hammer, so let's hope I didn't fuck the bearing.

Will have full shots of the car tomorrow probably, if not then some of you guys will see it this weekend :D

Carlisle was AWESOME! Had a great time, and will hopefully be going again next year!

I want to clean up my trunk, so I cut out a base for the floor that way everything will stay level. Still need to carpet it, but lost motivation now that my transmission is making weird noises. (refer to this thread: viewtopic.php?t=66323&highlight=)

Battery relocate

Just some pretty shots that make the car look 100x better than it really is

Pictures for xbrandonx to show how/where my coilovers sit:

I changed out the axle, since the oem one had a tear and got grease everywhere... :banghead:

Screwed down my battery and sub so it doesn't slide around everywhere.

Image

Cleaned up my bay a bit since it looked like this:

It's amazing what a few zip ties and a screw can do.

Haven't really done anything. Still trying to pass etest (emissions) but still throwing code p0456 - small evap leak.

Also, 4th gear is fucked and I've made no progress with even diagnosing what it is :(

but picked up and swapped in a Canadian (km/h) cluster!

Image

The car has 112,052 miles (180,330 km) and the new cluster says 151,986 km. Putting this here so I can easily keep track/check the mileage difference.

SOLD!

Well, I traded the SRT today :shock: I almost had it fr a full 3 months! :rofl:

Did a straight trade for a 2007 Chevy Colorado LT. Had a few issues that I didn't feel like dealing with, and also wanted a more reliable DD.

Image

I still have almost everything from my 2.0 turbo build and am most likely building another Neon at one point. Right now, I'm looking for a new job, and figuring out life stuff so I'll be waiting until after winter for a new "toy"
