when you lower your car usually the springs are stiffer.... lowring your car is to help with body lean and sway in the corners, it improves responsiveness by a lot, and gives the car a nice tighter feeling, just give it a try and you will understand 100% i put different springs on my car and the handling improved soo much, so give it a try before you try pulling facts from the air. and for 160$ what else would i want for my car? 160$ is dirt cheap, especially wen im 17 living at home for free and making 22$ an hour. and if you lived anywhere near me and if you have your stock suspension, id ask you to follow me and see if you could keep up, i gaurantee you would fall behind.

Ugh....dude you haven't been listening have you? You totally just copied what I have been saying this whole time. Yes...its an improvement on the car. But I'm sure You wouldn't loose me driving on the road unless it was because of traffic or just being stupid. Since most of the turns we would be taking would require a stop lol.

Frankly, I really don't care how old you are and what you make.

Haha, 03neonRT. Neon straight away racing is a fun sport of point and laugh! Actually FWD cars can get some serious go.

I think he has every right too. I personally don't care if he puts the leds or springs. I was just saying there were some people dissing and stuff about the leds. They were telling him to drop it for performance. I just stated a point. All of this stuff I'm saying really has nothing to do with what he wants lol. And I guess it should but I think he got the info he wanted by now.

Yeah, its too bad. I don't think any other color would look good with a red car. I personally like neon lights. As long as they are cheap and light the whole ground up, i like them. I just hate when they barely light up anything and its like a little line of light right below the neon light. Thats tacky too me.

If I remember right you weren't going to do the springs because of your area? Have you thought about doing anything else to your car?

Um if you look at my name and what im soon to be getting, that little word called SRT-4, yea thats a car with GO and a car that has a lot of potential for a lot of GO my ACR is just a cruise around car for now until winter is over. So just keep your mouth shut because you have no idea...[sm=icon_rofl.gif]

Just my opinion but...

Your car already has a lot of horsepower lol. You could save money and add a turbo and you would be making more HP than an SRT-4. ACRs have some power. A turbo would cost you anywhere from 1500-5000 depending on what you would do. That would make you more power or just as much as an SRT-4 and it would be cheaper. Just my opinion though. Maybe you like how the SRT-4 just looks or something. I know I love how it looks lol.
