i couldnt find out how to do the swap. So I learned along the way. Here is what was needed. 2nd gen starter, extend wires on tb postitoning sensor, and a different radiator hose and a slimmer fan (I didnt get yet) and then it drops right it. I just used my fan and radiator hose and just kicked and bled alot. But it went in. Well here are the pics. Please leave comments or suggestions. Oh yea. today A kis with a good condition acura integra 92 coupe pulled up (I knew him) and offered me a trade. His car (which is done up with stage one upgrades) and a 4 door one with a bad tranny for my neon. Straight up. What do you guys think? Well here are the pics.

 

I wouldn't! Acura's are gay! in a Richard Simmons Kind of way.

I wouldn't want an Acura in my garage. Or my driveway.

 

is his faster? n better shape? ignore the other car, think of it as a bonus. concentrate on the good car. would you trade your car straight up for the other "good" car? if not, i wouldn't touch it. i just did a similar thing with my motorcycle. i had an 06 ninja 500 (worth about $3500) and i traded it for an 86 GSXR 750, a 77 CB 750, and $1500. if i could go back, i wouldn't do it. the gsxr doesn't have original brakes or anything like that, the carbs were shot, and the cb is in pieces!

so there's my point. don't count on a "nearly good" car to be worth anything.

 

You know I thought about it. Its in great shape and it is fast. He has owned the car for over 3 years. But I looked it up on kbb and its only worth like 1.6k. I value my neon at more then that. So I will tell him I want both the cars + 600 or n0 deal. I just think the teg will be easy to sell. So I can buy another neon and start over.

 

the only thing i ever traded was my old 97 yamaha banshee straight up to a guy for a 2005 polaris predator 500.......i think the guy was kicking him self in the *** pretty bad, but i made out like a bandit

anyways....whenever sumone ends up trading straight up, its almost never that both parties are satisfied.......make sure you wouldnt be the one getting the short end of the stick

 

ha my buddy just traded his 88 ford f150 rusted to $hit for a 96 ram thats in pretty damn good shape other than it needs a front bumper and a grill. traded straight up and now the guy wants his ram back
