hey what up guys, newbie here, POLE as well

Post by neonpimp00 » Sat Mar 10, 2007 5:56 pm

Hey, the nams Jamie, im 22/m from Sioux falls SD, I am buyin a 00 neon es from my older brother pretty cheap, 1500 bucks, 200 bucks a month till is payed off. its in great shape, about just about to hit the 100 thousand mile mark, needs a new hood and fendor tho because he ran into somthin a long time ago. The only draw back to this car is its an auto, but I'm thinkin a manual trans swap later on :)

The plans I have for this car are pretty simple, I'm shure I will throw a srt4 hood on it cuzs it needs a new hood anyways, I'm going to put wheels on it, drop it with a decent coilover set up, that thats coilovers with aftermarket shocks/struts, not ebay shit.. prlly a strut bar, k&n performance fuel injection intake kit, a header of some sort, I'm thinkin about doin the rest of the exhaust set up to, it has a fart can on it, but I'm not shure I like that for this car. after I get those few things done prlly some cosmetic things, and way later in the future a srt4 motor swap.

welcome

seeing as you are at the 100000mile mark, make sure maintenance things are done, timing belt, water pump, tensioner, and all the normal stuff, trans fluid, coolant, etc.
