Nice SRT4. My friend was just thinking about getting one. I personally would remove the badges, hood and spoiler and make it into a sleeper but thats just me. :D

Pictures are not working for me but the description sounds nice!!

none taken, can you not see the last 3 pics as well? the side graphics were removed and I cleaned it. the blue is glossy when clean. now it's only got blue stripes.

Car looks good, my buddy had a black one. What mods do you have to run that low 13? I know a guy localy that ran a 13.1 or so with intake, short shifter, some DOT slicks, and i think he had some type of mod to the wastegate.

And what made you join a Grand am site, you have one?

[Bouchie11982]

[tdub4life]

At least we aren't like other forums that would flame him for showing off his SRT-4 even if he didnt also have a GA :)

Nice lookin ride, I agree with the suggestion about making the blue a gloss black. But not bad! ;)

[Grandam02chick]

that's true we aren't like that,Im glad were not.I was just saying but after reading his newb thread I understand why he is here.

[3 DeeJay]

I like it. Never really seen any SR/Ts much in person that I remember of.. but looks good.

These are the mods that had me running the 13.2:
K&N typhoon intake
ATP upper pressure pipe
Turbo XS type H RFL BOV
Solar Flare mouter mount inserts
Stock shifter cut down 1.5 inches
AGP Wastegate Actuator
CTI Turboback exhaust
CTI o2 housing
MSD coil Pack
MSD Plug Wires
Apexi S-AFCII

the stuff that has been added since:

Polyurathane filled Transmission mount
CTI UPP
CTI Hot pipe
HKS SSQ bov
Mopar Stage 1
BF Goodrich Drag radials

I changed the BOV's because the turbo XS is leaky under high boost. HOWEVER it is VERY loud. (RFL is rumored to stand for Really F#%$ing Loud!)

and the reason I joined is cause of my friend. ace151? I think that's his sn. he just bought a GA se2. I've been on bstuff for awhile and there was a lot of mention of the 3400 being the motor swap of choice, I kinda wanted to learn more about it so when he starts modding his car, I can help him.

it's alright....for a neon... lol j/p

[jayhawk]

Well im sure you already know the SRT's are bad \a$$. Know what? I really like the blue stripes! Its very bold on your part, and for me, diferrent equates good. :)

[TA^Guy]

I didnt notice this until now but what was with that Dukes Of Hazard CD antenna on the back before?

LMAO that's exactly what it was! last july I went to visit my mother in TN. the last time I went there I had my old neon R/T and we had a radar detecter. unfourtunatly you can't have one when you go through VA so we had to take it out and drive the speed limit (there's a novel idea!). anywa I went without one this year and it was REALLY slow. on the way back I picked up a CB from walmart for $35 and bought an antenna from radio shack. by asking the truckers perodically about the local smokey reports, I was able to average about 100 mph the whole way back, of course I also had really bad gas milage :)

Now, I get to see the pictures ... impressive!

[v8killa]

had a giant meet at the adessa corp. (it's a giant car auction place.) here's some pics of my car.

Nice pics, sweet ride!!! :thumbup2:

[TheNewLMHDesign]

Where'd you get her at? I take it a company used her for advertising purposes and then you took it off there hands? Either way, she looks hot. That yellow against blue is tight. Good looking ride!

[v8killa]

lol no I'm the dummy that put all the graphics on...well worse actully....I paid to have the decals put on her. I like the stripes, and I liked the mopar but I think it looks better with out it. the two lil ones on the fron is representing enough me thinks.

[TheNewLMHDesign]

Yeah, it looks hot like that. How much was the base price for that car? It looks pretty hot like that.

I have a 2003 so it's 19,995. the only option it had was side airbags and I didn't get those cause you have to change from the viper seats to regualr neon seats to have side airbags work.

[matts]

i like it too, nice car and i like the graphics, but im against everyone else. i like the graphics on the side, but dont care much for the stripes. but still, nice car :)

[EKling]

I got to sit in one of those at the local dodge dealership and I must say those are very nice cars. I did have a little trouble fitting into the seat but they felt like the really held you in.

[ladiesmanga]

It's nice, but you know, i'm not into Neons.


(half-joking...I rip on my freind with an SRT-4 all the time...the MitsuDodge Neon!)



(Like the stripes, though, and the little Mopar on the front looks good too.)

[Chain]

I like the mopar sticker and would maybe like it better if it were a 2 door but hey its not my car.

BTW for what it's worth it does look good. Just not my style.
