95 neon vs 10SS
#21
Staging Lane
Not saying it didn't happen but he shouldn't of pulled that hard on an SS.

So even if he traps 110 thats still not going to pull away from a stock SS with a real driver. Ethier way good kill, I just suspect the guy was either taking it easy thinking you would not be a problem or he cant drive. Like was mentioned also, the faster the speed the more the SS would have a big advantage.

He may pull but not 4 cars unless camaro guy sucks or neon guy weighs 2300 pounds. Even then I have a hard time seeing that happening with 250 to the tire but as they say anything can happen on the street.........

LOL did you just say brake boost on a 1st gen stock srt turbo? hahaha, i had myself one of these, KILLED a c6 (base) and stis and what not... my car weighed 2500lbs with me in it, i had about 290-300 to the wheels at 21 psi (spike 30psi) stock turbo. I miss that old car, just came back up for sale in my area! i might go pick it up, i kept her sleeper looking too
[QUOTE=89gmcs15;15956905]now its gutted and has a srt-4 turbocharged 2.0 dohc (420a) in it completely gutted >2000 with me in it . runs with/car ahead of my bros old stage 2 2004 srt-4 on only 4 lbs boost (wastegate spring)QUOTE]
your 1st gen can only put 1 car on a stock srt?? wtf is wrong with it?
unfortunately, i know a lot about these pieces of ****, 2.0 and 2.4 have the same head, therefor a stock srt turbofold will bolt right up.. i wouldnt ever go much over 7-8 psi on stock dohc internals though
and yes... 3rd gear synchro is ******* horrible in any srt lol
lol like i said, ive beaten a stock base model c6, which we all know would lay a beating to a SS lol. although i did race him from a dig though and cut off around 190kmh
12.2 @ 111 mph in my gay neon at 16 psi.... you dont think itll pull from a piece of **** 5th gen? lol on the other hand, most 1st gens have a 180kmh limiter, unless you have the mopar/acr computer... ive had my neon up to about 260 with a 3.55 tranny and still had a couple hundred rpm to go...
sorry just had to get in on this... i miss my ****** neon!

In a previous statement, you said you have an srt-4 engine in your neon? a srt-4 engine is 2.4 dohc turbo not 2.0, so i am confused, you have an srt-4 turbo on a 2.0?
My srt-4 was probably beat on daily from 32k until I sold it at 78k and never had problem, other than the syncro issue that they have and the damn boost leak issues.

Idk if it was driver or what but it was atleast 4 cars..he couldve sucked or it couldve been an automatic..too many factors to guess..and teg is right..mustang dynos read lower..my car pulls hard in 3rd and 4th so really not that hard to believe..especially since I watched it in my rear view

Trap speed is everything lol. If you trap 105 and I trap 110 I'm gonna pull on you pretty good.

idk i paid 700 bucks for my dd 1998 dodge neon it was rolled on the highway before i bought it, they flipped it back over and it has been drivin ever since averagin over 40 mpg all day every day. pretty good car right there if ya ask me and every other working person these days in this economy. my first dodge neon (now the turbo gutted one) took me across the country and back while gettin the crap beat out of the engine without changin the oil for 18k miles all while havin the "famous" head gasket leak without missin a beat. i could keep goin if ya want.

yea if youre talking a 70mph maybe, and like you say it would be damn close at those speeds. but anything lower than that and youll pull enough on it to win by 120mph

^ i know , there are a few cool ones out there, just seems to be all the guys i run into with them are jerks, i dont really see why but hey there are shitty people in the world , they just drive 5th gens lol. i know buying a 5th gen makes you way better than a 4th gen guy but damn lol
i've known gary for about 7 years. he's in cap with me. he's a firefighter, emt, and just took over a local cap squadron. either one of these guys would give you the shirt off of his back if you needed it, without even so much as a second thought.

lol jk 5th gens are pretty gay though i think... but nothing, i repeat, NOTHING is gayer than a 1st gen turbod neon
#36
i kinda like the looks of the new camaros. the only thing i've seen on them i don't much like, are the tail lights, and on the zl1, i don't like those goofy cut outs outboard below the bumper.
#37
lol..ur right hendrix..getn in the boost in that lightweight lil neon does make me happy..puts a big smile on my face..I guessed 2700lbs because I have a full interior and alot of crap in the trunk..prolly closer to 2600 but alot lighter than the SS..I did brakeboost which gave me a small jump..that could have accounted for atleast one car length..keep in mind I kept up with a new boss from a roll and they would skullf*ck a new SS so it seems about right to me..Im running my lil dd in the quarter at the rock at the end of march..so we'll see what it traps and runs..Im guessing mid/low 12s.
#38
Haters...... Yea It does sound hard to believe your neon with the specs you mention beat the ss by 4 cars... Even if it was an auto on a roll that's a good distance. I would think you got 2 on him and he let off

i just called the guy that bought my neon from the other douchebag i sold it to.. going friday to pick her back up. thanks to this thread. cant let my first car ever, get away from me! shes sticking with me for life! 12 second car for 1500 bucks cash!
and btw, 1ltcap, you forgot to add, they are the best handling FWD car in the world to this day i believe (maybe that new regal gs beats it), but it is the only FWD car that can pull a full G stock from the factory on race slicks. they are great fun on the road course
