yeah i think at the end of next month once i get the MTX swap and the exhaust and CAI intake on, I wanna take it to the track just to see ya know. Just to get a slip so that whenever I install or swap something else I can see how I am improving

i spun a rod bearing.....so instead of just putting a new crank in the car i decided to rip it all apart and redo EVERYTHING

everything i got for the suspension that needs to be installed:
good set of konis, mopar springs, stainless steel braided brake lines, huge rear swaybar and misc. suspension is gonna be painted, prothane motor mount inserts, prothane suspension bushings
motor:
je pistons, eagle rods, new oil pump, crane #14 cams, crane valve springs, ported head, bored .20 over
and a bunch of other stuff but i cant think of it right now.....my shelves are getting full of boxes
while everything is out im gonna redo alot of the wireing, clean the engine bay all up, and possibly get a body kit and new fenders.....
the car now sits up on jack stands with almost all the suspension ripped off....waiting for me to get out there and finish it up.....then i just have to wait for the motor to get back from the shop[:@]

by the time this car gets done it would of been cheaper to buy a stage 2 srt-4
but this thing is gonna be faster and handel alot better

there is ALOT of work to do, but i dont mind because its gonna be worth it....i hope to have the suspension done by this weekend....
i odnt think there is really anything to get rid of.....only things that are really getting replaced are the koni struts and the rear sway bar....but there might be more i just cant think of it
