Suspension:

6/06 - The suspension is the exact same suspension that use to live under the ACR. Koni Yellow Shocks with Mopar X-Highrate Springs and Suspension Techniques Swaybars. It will remain the same unless I decide to go with full coil over shocks from K&W but I don't see me needing that kind of suspension for occasional drag racing, stoplight contests, autocrossing, and back road driving. by the time the "hot engine" gets installed the GT Neon will be a weekend toy and nothing more so the suspension doesn't need to be extreme just for playing around. Besides if the darn thing was any stiffer get a concussion every time I went down a bumpy road.

Brakes:

6/06 - Brakes are mostly stock but the Mastercraft PM-1 brake fluid I am using is for more aggressive driving and steel braided brake lines replace the OEM rubber ones which don't give you the best feeling when hitting the brakes. I see no need to go with any bigger brakes then the stockers and I also see no need to go with slotted and/or drilled rotors since I will never be using the brakes hard enough for them to completely heat soak and fade out to the point where the slotted/cross drilled rotors will be needed.
