good luck....if you want a quick pick-up...try removing that wind grabbing spoiler. You'll shed dead weight and increase your aerodynamics.

You just gotta love people who go out and buy wings like that. I laugh at every neon I see with some **** like that. You know they don't go fast enought to be useful. I like the spoilers that came on the mazdaspeed protege's though. Those look tight.

i need to upgrade my pic i took that spoiler off about a year or so ago lol i laugh at people who have them now too just call it my moment of temporary insanity
hope this makes you happy it sure makes me happy

Hey we all do that sometimes. I just went out and bought a new sub box for my Frontier. And the wife wasn't too happy about it either. One of those "I'm was pissed so I bought the damn box to make me happy!" Well I'm still hearing about it, usually along the lines of "take it back"

It's a nice looking wing though, just pointless unless you have a car that goes fast enough to use it. Of course it would probably break apart before you ever reached a speed to use it. LOL

yeah whats up with ppl and neons anyways i mean the ones in the drag racing like in modified mag and such are nice but i mean mostly stock neons/...be glad you dont live where i do..there is one neon painted like Richard Pettys nazcar and another black with racing stripes and good head lights and tailights another with blue and white stripes and a couple of others all look like crap and are runing on stock rims too....lol the blue one wrecked recently btw...

Thank god Tin can left or broke down. That thing was annoying, sounded like black cats were being lite in the muffler. If you could call it a muffler. It looked like 2 tin cans welded together, and stuck like 6"s out the back. Right now the worst thing I'm seeing around here is Jeep cherokees with 20" spinners on them. And the worst part, you see them during the WINTER IN THE SNOW!!!. I think only 2 of them are smart enough to take them off during the winter though.

But I do know of one truck that I wouldn't mind have getting. A co-worker built it, and sold it just before he left. If I had the extra money I would have gotten it.

A 91 or 92 Mazda B2000. Lowered to the ground with a air suspension, custom interior, electric door poppers. And the coolest of all, he took the engine and tranny out of a 97 Miata, and put it in his truck. He sold it cheap too, $2500. He needed the money for the move. Only one thing was wrong with the truck. He had to put on the old doors because his electric door poppers froze up. It's still running around here, and I know the guy who bought it. I'll try to get a pic sometime. The last time I saw it, he was driving down the interstate, and I think he fixed the door poppers.

hahaha.....there is a 1994 Honda accord that is bright metalic orange running around on spinners its funny looking...

My co-worker has a 94 or 5 Honda Civic. He put the fake hubcap spinners from walmart on. He laughs at it too, and it looks hilarious as ****. said he put them on because he wanted to be different. And he also wanted to create a stir.

Anyways, back on topic. I got 3 kyb struts and suspension techniques springs in today, two front and left rear. The last one will get finished in the morning, it lowered the car about 1.5 inches and they didn't even settle in yet, so it should lower a little more though. Can't wait to get them done and they should settle in by sunday when i get to see how fast it gets down the track.

How well do those KYB's work? I've been looking at upgrading my suspension on my Maxima, and they make both KYB's and Tokicos for it. Tokicos are kinda expensive though, and no one around here has put on any KYB's

jedwards242000

just finished the kyb install this morning and drove the car some with the new struts and the suspension techniques springs got them all from nopionline.com, the suspension is stiff, no body roll, and my car is about 1.5 to 2 inches lower and handles very well. its stiff though and you feel bumps but if you want a sporty suspension you gotta deal with it.

Any problems with ordering from nopi? I seem to alwayz get f'd by them. Everything I have ever ordered was messed up on the first shipment. I ordered a NGK wire set for a 6cyl nissan, got a set for 4 cyl. And my clutch has been a nightmare.
