    Not ricing, just making it more fun to drive and trying to get rid of the "stinkbug" rear end... I also realize I contradicted myself, but I'm looking at keeping the car longer-term than expected and giving it to my youngest daughter.

    Might as well make it something I want to drive. I also want to take its best asset and improve on it, I'll let you take a guess, it's not horsepower...

      Well... for our cars....

      They will respond VERY well to a simple cold air kit and cat back.

      I run Iceman cold air kit. B*tch to install... but... car boogies for what it is.

      Cat back.... all of them are ricish.... except for an R/T catback. I'll be picking one up sooner or later.

      Booger bushings and an SRT4 STS are great!

      I just got front and rear STB's and I'm happy.

      I'd like to pick up some 16 inch R/T wheels and eventually springs/ shocks/ sway bars... time will tell.

      I'm on at:

        Thanks for the heads-up James. Hey, any idea if I should pick up a used R/T suspension setup and run that with some front/rear swaybars? Have ya heard anything about the B&M Edge STS? I'm trying to go cheap wherever possible, and the Edge STS accepts the stock shifter boot and knob.

        I'm just trying to make the car fun again. Think I'm on the right track?

        Look me up on neons.org, I'm GS Jon over there.

          Like I was saying about being cheap:
          http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1

          $42 shipped for a 30% redux STS. Hope it works well, the seller does have great feedback... Now to order some Booger Bushings and start having fun! :D

          I also have a cheap eBay CAI in mind:
          http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=38634

          I'll definately be spray painting that intake tubing black... [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] Whaddya think James?
