Let the flaming begin

boobies :p

[yert315]

how much do these things weigh?

[dvs909]

gay. btw why does every american car that's modded have the worlds ugliest rims on them? where the fuck do you find such ugly shit?

also you could do a supercharged s52 for that kind of money.

[ak-]

The only redeeming thing in any of your pics can be found in the last one, and it has nothing to do with your car at all.

ahahahahahahahahahahah good eye

No the head is completely different from the old 2.2 and 2.5 turbo I-V variants from the 80's/90's. I'd love to find a 2.5 turbo'd woody Caravan as a parts hauler though. I'd relish the day I blew the doors off a stang with a couch in the back. This motor shares no similarance to those though. The block is a regular N/A 2.4 and the same with the head. Exhaust valves are changed out along with all forged internals. Stock block with internals..... some have seen 450hp whp before they've popped.

Its an Evo IX. Easiest way to tell is the holes in the middle of the front bumper VIII's didn't have those. Nothing special about it at this point. He's done little stuff to it since he's got it to Germany. When he bought it it had a Megan exhaust and a few other lil things. He's got a head for it, a bigger exhaust and some gauges. But nothing too outlandish.

There are a large handful of SRTs in the 10's with hundreds in the 11's and 12's. Hell there's a stock turbo'd one in the 11's now. There are a couple of them in the 9's as well. Fastest to date is a 7.88 @ 188mph. I don't think there will be another one any where close to that fast any time soon.

You guys are funny. :D

I was in love with this thing when I had an old 1990 3.3l, I really wanted to do the swap.

that is my least favorite car right after the fucking geo metro,

i dont see why anyone would ever buy an ugly ass piece of shit like that

putting money into that thing is pointless

Stupid. You drive a 20 year old lowest level BMW shaped like a brick. Come back when you have a decent insult :D

Even the Geo Metro (Suzuki Swift) had a turbo version by the way.

you are talking like your neon is any better than the 20 year old 3series.
lololol?

[DrMcDave]

I personally still like them. If you are going to do a high hp fwd car why get anything else. They can be fast as hell for not much money and the ACR version did a pretty damn good lap time at the ring. It was pretty close to that of the e46m3 if I recall correctly.

Now I wouldn't buy one but I think they look cool for an american car. Way better than the stupid caliber they replaced it with.

[iamsam]

I dunno, but my thought is that you can't really come onto an E30 forum to try to convince E30 enthusiasts that Dodge Neons are better than E30s.

[gtdragon980]

Wow theres a lot of hate going towards this car. I don't like neons all that much, but i'm not going to flame you on it because HEY! If you like it then thats awesome! But neons can't be compared to e30's because e30's are legendary cars, neons are not...e30's may look like a brick but they definitely do not handle like one, and it is definitely not comparable escorts because escorts are shit in every aspect and would be spanked all day by e30s! In all, good job on your neon..not my taste but to each his own.

For the money I spent I'd be no where near to what I'll have with the SRT.

Lets start with 600hp e30s... how many are out there? Too hard to figure that one out.... lets drop it too 500...hell... 400.... How many 10s e30's are there? 11s? 12s? Point is, I can build this thing far beyond what I have pockets to support. Any car is the same, but not nearly as easy as the SRT.

e30's are a great car. I love em. But they don't put you in the seat like the SRT does.

there are lots of 11-12 second E30s. mostly those crazy scandanavians (at least one in the 9's). and 600hp in an E30 would be pretty pointless anyway. :p

14.1 isn't very fast, but I can understand why you got this car. E30s are rare in my area, nice ones are even rarer. I see Neons all the time (although less and less, they weren't exactly the highest quality machines). I also see SRTs from time to time but about as often as I see a nice E30. I can't imagine how few there are in germany..

What I don't understand are the lambo doors and 20" wheels. :p

[Dave]

600hp in an E30 would be pretty pointless anyway. :p

My mechanic buddy is building one now that will top 600 at the (very large and scary) wheels. And no, he is not running megasquirt . . . ;)

[nando]

what's he running then, SMT-6? :p
