I think the bus is sexy.
The lights are from a Galant? Lancer ES?![]()
Maybe if it was converted into a CNG.![]()
You could dress it in ladies lingerie and it still wouldn't be sexy!

You don't need a V8 to turn heads.

I was thinking about going with the 360 v8 -- but its too bit to not have to move the firewall A LOT... the twin turbo v6 should sufficeI want to make it as street legal as possible; while looking like a tuner; just not a ricer.. I would like to scare the crap out a camaro when they say.. 'nice neon [sarcastically]' -- lol .. with some crower cams.. i can already get it to sound like a muscle car at idle. CLICK
She should put a Honda Integra Type-R engine in there, if it will fit...Not even an SB V8 will fit in there?
She should put a Honda Integra Type-R engine in there, if it will fit...It has 6 gears, 215HP, even if you call it the torqueless wonder...

What are you expecting to do with over 200HP?![]()
A V6 Twin should give you plenty of power considering the weight of a Neon.
Musclecars and most other powerful cars are likely to be a fair bit heavier.
If it's not done already, or in line to be done, I would recommend you upgrade your driveshaft too.
The guy I got my GTI from snapped the original after modifying the engine.
It is great fun sitting next to a Supra, 350Z or whatever at the lights,
and they sort of challenge you, expecting to see you disappear in thier rear view mirror.
Then the lights change! - and Bye Bye!
(Note: I do not support or agree with any illegal street racing. 👎 )
I guess you think the Mazdaspeed 3 isn't all that much better either, you sound like a guy that plays too much GT4.
The Neon is FF, so we shouldn't slap on all that power...
The Mazda Speed 3 is most definately not crappy, it can out-accelerate almost any FF on the road.
Also if 200HP is nothing, then why 200HP is the reason a Lotus Motorsport Elise can do 0-60 in 4.1 seconds?
That is faster than many american cars with twice the power. Sure it's lightweight, but that is a good way to make 200HP drive better than 400HP muscle car. So the Dodge Charger is better just because of more HP? I think not.You must remember that engines like that are heavy too. The car weights 2.1 tons (4200 pounds) while the Elise weights about 1450 pounds. HorsePower is not everything, look at the Bugatti Veyron, that thang would be much faster if they just used a heavily modified engine that is smaller. That is what the Suzuki Escudo was all about, 2.5L V6's. Sure a V8 can be faster, but I'm just commenting on the 200HP thing.
edit - as for the PTsnoozer.. its not bad; with the exception of the fake induction hood.. things... if they were functional, and not 3M'd on.. i'd like it more. I've never been into mods that weren't productive.
