Not sure how I missed these pics but the SRT looks gorgeous

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Mon Nov 02, 2009 3:18 pm

thanks guys.

i'll grab some pics this week before i take the nt-03's off for the winter, so you can see how much better it looks.

Sounds good

What you up to Sunday or Saturday afternoon/night? I can get you some pics. You provide the spot, I'll bring my cam.

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Thu Nov 05, 2009 9:45 am

deal. ill be in touch.

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Fri Nov 06, 2009 10:26 pm

just installed my mopar bov plate tonight, what a bitch. the bottom left bolt (those of you who have installed one, know which one i'm talking about) is the biggest bitch ever, but other than that, it wasn't bad at all.

this thing is sooo loud, cant wait to scare people on the sidewalk with it, haha.

anyway, we're having a meet with a couple local neons here on sunday, so i will have my end of season pics with my nt-03's posted up shortly, as well as some of the locals rides.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 8:07 am

I had one of those....the memories. Racheting wrenches are your friend

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Sun Nov 08, 2009 10:49 am

are they ever.

that was the only reason that i was able install it. good thing i'm tight with one of the techs at work, who lets me and his son use his tools whenever we want. awesome guy. and his tool box is lime green, haha. love it.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Sun Nov 08, 2009 11:57 am

That's awesome! That was my saving grace as well. I bought one before I went and installed it. It's actually extremely useful for the whole car.

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 4:54 pm

as promised, a few snaps with the nt-03's before they're taken off for winter.

i know the drop is still off, but no point in slamming it before winter, i would've had to raise the car back up again. these wheels look way better on the car nonetheless.

questions or comments, feel free.

cheers,

scott.

Who's the goof in the black hoodie?

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Tue Nov 17, 2009 10:47 pm

haha, not too sure roy. he does kinda look like a goof though.

Spring will be epic Scott. Yes it will.

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 1:04 am

Very nice. What exhaust setup do you have on your car?

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 8:41 am

Yes those look much better.

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 8:52 am

Mark: yeah spring and summer next year will be uber epic, i cant freakin wait. auto-x here i come. already got a set of toyo RA-1's lined up. and the coilovers are going downnnn.

MyNeonSaysHi: right now i just have the mopar cat-back, but with a magnaflow muffler in the mid-pipe. it quiets it down substantially, i don't find it much louder than stock. next season it will be time for a 3" 02 housing and downpipe.

crystal: thanks, i thought they looked better too. just wait til spring when they're tucked!

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 1:34 pm

I like the blue lugs with them. I can't wait until spring it's too cold already. Maybe we should just skip winter.....hmmm?

rushtom2 · Post by **rushtom2** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 7:09 pm

No! I need winter to get ready for Spring!

I'm probably one of the few, but I absolutely hate your rims. They look so horrid on there! That little ring that flows around the rim, like an O in the wheel, is very, icky. Get different rims and put your wing back on! I love SRT-4's with wings.

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 9:13 pm

no thanks. everything is staying.

Car looks reallllyy good Scott!

Does your buddy's neon have Beretta wheels on it?? They look pretty good actually

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Thu Nov 19, 2009 7:55 am

yeah that's a local guy that's on the neoncanada/MRNEC boards. he's rocking the beretta wheels for winters. they dont look half bad for winters, either.

I heard that some guy from Camix has a set of Rota's and an APC aluminum wing for sale. That'll make the car super awesome!

dtjackten · Post by **dtjackten** » Mon Nov 23, 2009 11:04 am

car looks nice.. i kinda like the wheels on it... and spoilerless ftw!!!

nice work!

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 7:42 am

thanks.

it still needs to go lower in the spring, but since its pretty much winter, i'm gonna leave it at the same height for now.

also in store for next season is race wheels/tires and moar track time. (auto-x, light time attack). I'm mostly concerned with making this car balanced at this point, and getting some seat time in the car. It should prove to be a pretty fun summer.

tentative plan:

- 17x8 RPF 1's (hopefully used), with 235/40/17 Toyo RA-1's
- Slotted rotors with EBC green pads, or possibly a combo of a couple different compounds F/R
- lots of playing with the coilover settings
- Stage 1
- 3" O2 and turbo back
- intake (installing next week anyway, lol)
- BMFIC?
- solid motor/tranny mounts

full poly kit, stainless brake lines, BC coils, DC rear strut brace and aftermarket sways are already on the car, so its already set up to tear up some auto-x and time attack.

we'll see how far into the bolt ons i get, but the seat time is going to happen regardless.

Love the car man. Thanks for the SRT hood for mine, what a huge difference in Coolant temp. Cant wait until spring to get some cruisin time in.

Wait until you see the swap next year

Hehe lol Im so excited and I havent even started anything yet LOL.

Just a quick heads up on what to expect.

Car is going on a diet big time.
