Nice rotors. How much were they?

*1997 Plymouth Neon - Expresso DOHC, 5 speed, 2 door.
*Upgrades - Custom 3"Cold air intake, relocated battery (Trunk), liteGlow 7 Color LED's everywhere inside, custom sound system with two 12's and speakers.
*Future plans - PLANS HAVE CHANGED! Thinking of starting in the top end, Head build with 16's, maybe even 18's, all titanium valves, springs, etc. Already got a pretty good header, straight 2.25 pipe. Maybe 2.5" pipe soon with SRT4 exhaust.

I might do those rotors. I'm trying to get ahold of some 14" wheels. Most after-market 14" wheels are 4lug... ugh

Well I'm gonna go like 30mph and then like slam on the brakes to see how well it does.

It stops really well. It'll stop on a dime if I press it enough

Does it have ABS? I know the ABS has helped me out sometimes. Especially stopping on gravel, wet ground, and even from fast stops.

Usually it's the other guy's fault if I almost hit his bumper, but a couple of times it's been my lead foot.

My car has no muffler right now, so it ROARS. Kinda loud, I have to find a better muffler though, I put the Cherry Bomb turbo back on, and it's way too quiet for my taste.

Yeah, probably. I'm thinking of getting a Cherry Bomb Extreme instead. I might also have a 95 NYG ACR coupe. I'm so stoked.
