97 Neon Sport...

Well i finally picked up something different… 97 Neon Sport or the equivalence to 2 door neon RT. Comes with a 140hp Dohc 2L. Has a D4RE… a cousin to Mitsubishi’s 420A, or the GS or RS motor just a different head. Gonna hammer it and throw some wheels on it and figure out what i’m gonna do for the motor next year… heres some pics.

gulf… maxima… civic coupe, thoughts of a 540… which woulda been sick, and now a 97 neon. :headbang

at least cops shouldnt bother you…

this actually makes me miss my neon. ive been wanting to get another as a beater while my car is in paint, and getting other stuff done.

nice car, been trying to find a ACR, mine was a(95) base model but had 4 wheel disks. so i think the preivious owner switched em.

REPLACE YOUR HEAD GASKET. youve probably heard already tho. ;D

Well it’s different.

I think a certain neon on the board has a follower ;D

doh… how could i forget about that one.

How long are you keeping the Neon? i mean… cmon tommy! that 540li woulda been sick.

:+1

thats cute ;D

:crackup

well when you get rear ended by someone with no insurance and then they dont pay up after small claims court and you need a car you pick up the first 1000 dollar car with 70k original miles. its gonna get me around town and if i want it to be it could be a could platform… sorry i couldnt have ANOTHER honda just like everybody else.

my sister picked up one of these with 50k miles and within 10k miles she needed a headgasket so just watch her…

well i just put a brand new oil pan and the oil shows no sign of antifreeze… i’m pretty sure it has already been ugraded to the metal head gasket. i replaced the oil pan with the metal gasket. its gonna be a solid motor for awhile… if i decide to keep it the srt4 turbo manifold is a direct bolt on. so we will see what happens…

:mwahaha

:wtf ? whats so funny?

thats not a funny icon its a

MUHAHAHAHAHAAAAA…like an evil laugh.

dont forget the jetta

I’ve got an 02’ SXT for sale ;D

so i put the car on the road friday… the car was making a noise at around 3 thousand rpm… noticed the first couple times a changed the oil it had some metal shavings in it… didnt think much about it hoping that it was just stuff that was sitting in the oil pan from a while ago. and it wasn’t. car finally shit the bed in about 9 hours of driving so let the build up begin. gonna build an all motor neon capable of pulling low 14’s. and spraying into the 12’s. as well as go kart handling. shooting to be done by next spring will keep updated with pictures.

are you serious?
that fuckin sucks

good luck with the build tho
