I purchase the 2004 Chevy Cavalier LS Sport Coupe for $3700 totaled with 37k on it. I spent around $1300 in repairing sheet metal plastic repair metal glaze as so on. It is complete and all put together i just bought a set of enkei EV5 18'' wheels for it. Now i am looking to see what else the car has to offer i have heard that the motor has a lot of potential, just looking where to start and what parts are needed. Also i am looking to drop the car a few inches.

the eco is a beast, look into an intake, full headerback exhaust and header, engine mounts and then if ur feeling like it, go for cams. Every eco ive seen REALLLLLY opens up with cams and a good tune

and as far as dropping it goes, a good set of coilovers cant be beat, that or some tokico dspecs and good lowering springs, check the classifieds

no way ld9 turbo all the way

Also look for a cheep brake system as well. Really want a big brake kit but is too much $$$$$.

i think the neon rear disk brake conversion sticky is in the suspension forum, might wanna give it a read thru.
