Unfortunately no, I was still in school in 1998 when I had the Acura and in 2000 when I got the GS4. I never had a chance to browse the internet for car clubs until 2004 when I found this wonderful forum via a google search.

'98 Neon R/T

Bolt-ons, nitrous, stereo. Loved the damn car.






I was planning a built 2.4 with SRT-4 internals and a 20g setup w/ portfueler, but since I am in college I'm trying to save a bit of money and keeping some reliability.

Pics of my old car are below. Like DanCheet, I had to sell it because I just didn't drive it everyday and needed something more friendly. And still mad I had to sell it but can't wait to do it again.

And here's what it looked like after I wrenched on it for the first month.
