Seconded on the SRT4 drivers being toolbags.

@ Sath..... you know what you need?

This:

572hp twin turbo V10, plenty of room for cargo, 4wd for NE winters. And did I mention 572hp?

Fuckin' Audi A3s, I want one of those so bad. 2-door though. Nomnomnom.

I'll have to get pics up soon of my own, but for now:

Stolen off google images, Only difference is I have stock rims and it's black.

v6 SXT lowered, rolled back bumper.

v6 part sucks, currently researching putting a Cummins Turbodiesel in :D That will be fun once I figure it out. Main problem is not how to get it to fit and work, but rather how to keep it on the road, and not wasting tires.

Thanks, sadly after being slammed into from behind it doesn't look like that anymore ):

They're pretty cheap to build up from a 240(which are plentiful just about wherever you go), and you can take even the high mileage, non turbo ones since you'll probably end up dropping an SR20DET in it. Non-turbo 240s are great on insurance too.

My car was $1500. Got a $2000 loan which covered repairs needed to get it inspected. Slowly paid that off making minimum wage on top of other repairs I caused also

suped up neons bother the shit out of me... i know this one kid in my town who went nuts on a shitty neon and it hauls ass, he always goes around racing everyone being a douchebag, and wins and it pisses me off. not sure exactly what he did to it, he raced my friend saying hes stock and took a shit all over him when i was with him, as well as a fully built k20a boosting.
tl;dr: fuck neons
sorry, had to get that off my chest

**Quixon** · 2010-07-02 14:15

Look at it this way.

You can drop a V-12 in a minivan and smoke 99% of the cars on the road. But in the end, it's still a fucking mini-van.

**BerenTebogo** · 2010-07-02 14:31

the sport neons run something close to 300hp turbo dont they? Could be wrong but I was under the impression they were ridiculously overpowered so that all the trailer park kids could finally win something.

**bechyni** · 2010-07-02 14:51

Yeah but their intercoolers usually can't handle the power(stock intercoolers that is) and are usually shit and break

My 3 vehicles were straight up purchased in full via cashiers checks directly from my bank, so I have no car payments whatsoever, just insurance and tags. I'm only saying that since you asked, oddly enough I hate talking about my shit (Which is why I removed my pics) so I don't need the real_nigga trolls coming out of the wood works and shit.

**Haruk** · 2010-07-02 15:24

yeah, guy was telling me how he needs to get a custom turbo or some crap for his neon to get past 300 or so hp. its admittedly an awesome sleeper, but pisses me off for the mere fact that its a neon

Spoiler: show

guy's neon, not even an SRT-4, but im pretty sure he probably swapped in an SRT-4 motor

People who spend money to make neon's faster are almost as bad as people who put larger exhausts on 1992 civic hatchbacks.

You can get a used BMW 5 series with some 280ish HP V8 for 8-13k (and the ability to say you drive a bmw 5 series, not a god damn civic fucking hatchback) if you're patient and willing to do a little bit of engine touch-ups. People are so god damn silly.

**Aksannyi** · 2010-07-02 15:43

I'm reasonably sure that driving a minivan automatically lowers your IQ by several points. My mother used to make me (yes, make me) get gas for her in her minivan and I could just feel myself getting dumber just by driving the damn thing. It also explains why she couldn't get gas for herself, I suppose.

Lesson learned? Don't forget to put traction control back on even if it's only just a short sun shower.

Please tell me this is a troll post

That aint no A3 son.

RS6 Avant Estate wagon. That's whats up.

EDIT: I also love all the Neon bashing in here, it makes my day. (Not sarcasm, I fucking hate Neons and people who decide to tune them/buy SRT4s)

Also, found pictures of my car before my VW., gotta get in on the JDM love going on. 1985 300Z, looooved that car.

Totally stock inside and out. Was clean as hell, that VG30 6 sounded fantastic. We ended up selling it to some guy who bought it for his son... and the kid totalled it a month later. I almost cried.
