Default Just a few questions

I am curious first of all about the bolt pattern on the wheels. Are there any other dodge cars that have the same pattern such as stratus or caliber. also i wondered what kind of struts to use when installing the lowering springs and is there a whole lowering assembly you can buy, and just for my curiosity how hard would it be to do a v6 engine swap.

To answer your first question: http://www.vehicle-bolt-pattern.com/...nce-guide.html

And for the V6 or even an I6 engine swap, very difficult. It's not even worth the cost.

2000-2005 Dodge Neon bolt pattern is 5x100. Struts- the KYB and Tokico's are the popular ones. The only thing I can think of that you mean by "whole lowering assembly" would be coilovers which will cost at minimum ~$1,000. V6 swap- buy a V6 vehicle.

I didn't know I wasn't being nice? I was just being to the point, lol. It will cost much more to swap it to a V6 than it would be to just buy a V6. Now, building a 2.4 turbo engine and swapping it...WIN. That will cost a bit as well, of course, but you wouldn't have to tear apart and rebuild the entire front end of the car to maybe be able to get a V6 in there.
