Heh, did you paint your turn signals and fogs? My best friend just did that to his '97 Neon, it looks sweet. What engine mods did you have before? Nice car...

Not a big fan of Neons (other than the SRT-4), but yours isnt too bad looking.


Good luck with your build up.

 

[GregsterGSi]

I already had a nice setup

I am going 12.5:1 Comp, 2.0 .20 over so around 2.1L. Ported magnum head.

nice!!

my brother had a white neon until recently when the water pump siezed and the end ressult was bent valves :dead::dead:

I never understood the neon engines...they just seem so.......awkward...

whats so awkward about them? They function the same as anyother motor.

 

[phantasm]

Very nice man! Looks like you put a lot of work into it.

cause they're so turned around from what I'm used to - exhaust manifold is in the back not the front - a lot of wires everywhere...I dunno. The engine bay of my brother's car always confused me.

Yo those are some crazy maods dawg but i hate to tell you no matter what you do to a neon (SRT-4 EXCLUDED) it is always going to look like a chick on crack-------------- like **** to tell you the truth i think those are the ugliest cars ever made

but nice mods though and get a real body kit:smoking:

Hyundais arent exactly designed by pinnafarnia :evil:

body kits are a waste of cash

 

[irishmanskeske]

its cause you got the gsi should have got the hatch gt

 

[DynastyAccent]

And that makes it a hell of a lot better... :hmmm: An Accent is still an Accent... But that's why we love 'em.

In canada the hatch GT is the GSi. Same car different sticker on the back

btw I like the looks of the accent out of the econoboxes it looked the best

 

[DynastyAccent]

I'm not sure why, but I heart econoboxes... It's an affliction. The Accent was one of the best looking out of the old line up, but now it seems every manufacturer has a tiny offering to the US market. About fvcking time!

i love the neon. i had a 98 plymouth neon too and i loved that car. i totaled it out when i got hit by a dodge ram. she was so sweet, white, coupe, 5 speed, oooh sweet car. i am trying to fall in love with my accent right now, its just hard cause you cant play as much with an accent as you can a neon.
nice pics, thanks for sharing... and bringing up some memories for me :depressed:

The accent suffers from one major thing and its HP, If it had 115-120 it would be fantastic

here are some other pics

Thats from 2004
