My name is Clinton, and I'm parked in Spokane.
I'm driving a 2005 Dodge Neon SXT.
I'm hoping to get more knowledge about neons here, and have been lingering on this site for a while, but have finally made an account.

So..hello to all

Thanks
I've been looking for a different bumper that I like...but I'm having a hard time deciding.
As for slamming it, I want to. So bad. That's my next mod...I just need help on what coilovers to get and how to install them. If anyone can direct me on where to go for those (creating a new thread, etc) it would be much appreciated.

Welcome to 2gn!

Man that thing looks like it has a lift on it! So you're gonna go with coilovers right off the bat huh? You have several choices, ranging from decent street level units to full race performance ones. Plan on spending between $800 - 1500 depending on which style you want. Popular choices include Megan, BC, TEIN, and KW/Mopar, in order of price. Check out the FAQ section for more info.

Hey I remember that car from DF. Lol, thats back then when I still was there. Do you still post over there?

klauslx · Post by **klauslx** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 10:01 pm

I'm never on there anymore :p

Hmm...I might not be thinking coilovers then...maybe just the springs but with the adjustable height? I have no idea. I know very little about suspension. I know it doesn't have a lift to it, I think its just the way my wheels are. haha Ummmmm, what I want would be a way to lower it but allowing me to adjust height, without doing airbags, and just using my stock shocks/struts. I thought there was a way to do it with just the springs on stock stuff.

welcome dude- I'm really diggin those SRT skirts

Not a fan of the SRT look on a regular Neon.

Now thats a lot of snow!!!

Sorry for the big link, but thats the right combo you want to do. Live.com cashback is at 14% so you will get 14% of your money back after 90 days or so.

You can lower the car with just a set of lowering springs, but your struts will eventually give out and start to leak meaning you have to do the job all over again... Do it right the first time and get the Tokico HP blue kit. I had it on my 01, gave the car a nice stance and it drove nice.

Welcome to the site by the way.

klauslx · Post by **klauslx** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 2:24 am

Haha yeah...that's the reason that I want adjustable height. SNOW!

and thanks for the compliment on the skirts

anyway, those look like a nice set up. but I think that I want more of a drop, like something around 3-3.5 inches then i can lift back up when i need to get somewhere in the winter and not have my neon be a snow plow

lilnicko11 · Post by **lilnicko11** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 3:12 am

not bad so far. im in the same situation as you. i still gotta drop mine. gotta wait til the funds are there though.

Damn, that ebay link has a VERY good deal! I wish I would've bought that, since I got mines used.

i can't tell, but is that snow on the neon, or is it on a bigger car behind the neon?

Welcome from Spokane,

Btw I know the previous owner of your sxt neon, and the rear srt exhaust used to be on my neon and then i sold it

klauslx · Post by **klauslx** » Sun Oct 25, 2009 5:07 pm

It was a good little car.

I sold it, bought a cobalt ss/sc, then sold that and now i'm looking for another neon

go figure.
