Brings back memories of when I owned my 05 SRT-4. I remember back in 07 till like 2010, you used to see SRT-4's everywhere. Now, not so much, let alone an SRT swapped 2G neon. Good luck with the whole process and I can't wait to see what you come out with....
I own another disrespected car (Cobalt SS) so I am fuuuullllly into your plan for doing this thing up again. I love it when these 'disrespected' cars get some love from the owners and are turned into works of art. It's much more satisfying to do up a car people trash on and make it worth drooling over than just buying something everyone thinks is cool and doing not much with it.
These builds mean the most to me. I love how you're continuing to build upon your project in your Father's memory. I'm devoting my JZX100 Chaser build to my father who past away January 14th, 2017.
I've had a picture of this car as a background on my phone back in the day and always say the pictures and was drooling over it so glad I seen this video, my first car was a 1998 neon sport 5 speed and had 4 others since then never has a srt 4 and this car made me realize and more confident that it don't have to be a srt4 to be awesome this car is the ultimate of individual tastes 👍
This video is my introduction to your channel. I'm slowly rebuilding my 1GN so seeing that someone else is still putting some love into their Neon is inspiring. Thanks for sharing and I'm looking forward to seeing how yours progresses.
A real car enthusiast!! Keep it up and hope to see your car finished soon!! Your Neon looks really clean and different. The color red on those wheels can stay. Now wonder about those 18 who disliked this video!! Wonder what they drive, or what they do for living!!
Good luck on your plans. I’m a big fan of the Neon, I owned a 1996 and loved it. I can’t wait to see the progress in the future. You’re thinking of doing exactly what I’ve always wanted to do, strip the car, refresh and reduild it with a better engine. Love it.
I've been watching a lot of srt4 vids lately because after 5 years of sitting I've decided to start working on mine again. I'm glad this showed up in my recommended vids because it should be interesting to see how your project comes together. Good luck with it, man.
I've owned 4 first gen neons and 6 srt4s..I've always wanted to see this model of the neon done the right way.Youve earned my sub based off this video alone.Long live the neons!!!!!
This Car Is The Reason I Found This Dope Channel! I have one I bought an 05 SXT SE as a daily and I ended up falling in love with it lol. I have Newer & Faster Cars but, Deon gives me that Analog Feeling when times were Simpler! My Goal is to make it an Upgraded OEM R/T!.. So For Your Loss BTW Man! Keep Up The Good Work!💪🏽
I'm late but I'm here. There is some guy here in Maryland that has an orange it is crazy and has so much power. I am sorry for the loss of your dad. I asked about a 2 years ago on my vlog channel did you have a car and it was this one. I forgot about it. Wheel color is freaking amazing!!
Yeah... in '03 I had a '99 Neon sport coupe. I had done the exhaust from the header back (pacesetter header) (Flowmaster cat-back). Cold air intake by AEM. 17 inch rims with slotted rotors. And new head and taillights. Had her for 8 years and (3) 420A engines. Damn good memories were made in my Neon.
Hope your vision comes true brother . I can’t wait to see it done the way you want it . I know your dad would be proud to see you continue building this car 🙏🏼
the think about this car is it doesny matter what money you put in it because you'll never sell it. it's a memory car. its a car you'll cherish forever. looks sick too
Excited to see where it goes! It's a .55 a/r bullseye housing actually. Keeps the 2.0 much more lively when you're not trying to squeeze every little bit of power on the big end.
Hey Erick! Thanks for the correction. When the 2.0L is out I’ll be selling the kit you created so hopefully it’ll go to a nice home and make another Neon owner very happy!
I've owned my 02 neon since 03 and put an srt4 motor and trans in it over the years. I'm planning to build mine 1 of these days as well... Good luck on the Build 👍🏽
Love the plans for the build. If you can't find a good SRT4 around, you could always find a PT Cruiser GT. You'll still need some doner parts from an SRT, but those motors are typically less abused.
@Green Bastard no such thing as a "nice" 4 cylinder " you get a 4 cylinder because you can't afford a bigger motor or the gas or the insurance. And yes it is a lightweight car so it would be awesome with the hellcat motor people have already swapped them into miatas and stuff
I like your concept, it was also great gaining a little insight into the story of the car and you as a person. I might do a rough render with your plans, hit you up somehow when it's done.
I can’t wait for these videos! I’ve owned 5 1g neons. I currently own a white ‘96 ACR coupe and a “rat rodded” ‘98 Highline sedan affectionately called the Sh*tbox. I just swapped a n/a 2.4 that’s bored .040 over, decked .010, Crane 10’s with a Mopar ecu into the Sh*tbox.
Let me tell you how quick I clicked this. 🤣 I remember seeing this thing at the hotel where everyone from 2GN was staying back in, what, 2010-2011? So excited to see this thing back out again.
One of my all time favorite neons. That front bumper with a mopar lip kit is the best. I honestly thought it was an srt4. Lol Looking forward to this. 👍
Love it glad to see you getting back into it. This video inspires me to get back in the building my 300zx let's just been sitting in my garage for the past 3 years
Dude. I remember this car, I met you at Carlisle years ago - had been on 2gn since ‘02. Still have mine as well, it’s been sitting nearly as long as yours. Sub’d and I can’t wait to see this back on the road!
We’ll see, this was supposed to be the year the car goes back on the road - watching you do yours may be the boot in the ass I need to actually do it! Would be cool to see some OG neons at Carlisle this year - the neon crowd there has been a sad shell of what it once was.
Hell yeah bro! Been watching you for a couple years. Always wondered what you were gonna do to this! My first fast car was a 2005 srt-4! I love those cars man
HALCYON it was stage 2! Bigger injectors, bigger front mount ic, full exhaust, agp wastegate, stage 2 ecu. Cold air intake, bc coils, and Rota wheels. It was a badass car man. I loved that car and miss it! They sound amazing! And it was orange blast. 🔥
Glad to see you're bringing it back! I remember seeing this on your Instagram/videos (might of been Krispys?) back in 2017 and always wondered if you'd start working on it again!
I'm so glad u said if Dodge came out with a neon in 2020 what would it look like for real cuz people hated this car so much and still do I was one of those guys but then for some reason after loving all the super, and hyper cars all those good looking sexy cars after a while u start to fall in love with the cars u thought were ugly growing up!! and the Dodge neon srt or r/t's are fuckin sexy they have ass appeal not mass appeal🤘💯🙏☝️this car is sexy no matter what I don give a flying fuck what anybody say or have bad to say about Dodge neons point blank .
You sir are one humble af human being. Stoked to see this come alive after seeing how you drive mini-vans and Kia's ;) Edit : ( Cough Cough, SEMA , Cough Vibrant )
Ive know about this neon for awhile and im in the same boat but you've done what im gonna do congratulations i love your basic neon witch is boss in this video i wanna get in touch with you bro bro damn with the haters say... Love the front end
i really like the '02 front end swap with the eye lids and lip. I had a 2001 Chrysler Neon R/T and the thing i remember most was the intake manifold "flaps" opening up around 5000rpm. An SRT-4 swap would fit right in there and are super easy and cheap to find spare engines for since the Turbo model PT Cruiser and PT Cruiser GT had the exact same engine. I've been thinking about swapping my 1998 Neon R/T coupe but i like the high revving 7800RPM intake sound of the 2.0L DOHC with the Mopar ECU and Iceman intake
So stoked to see this
thank you boss!!
I seem this neon on the Srt4 page
I own a Srt4 acr Edition and trust me
Now this days neons are breaking necks
Now that’s a neon YOU DONT see around most of the time HUSTLE HARD HALCYON
🤘
فعا
So refreshing to see something different
Can't wait to see the progress of this build!!
thank you danny
We’ve all been waiting halcyon, let her shine on 😋
❤
Brings back memories of when I owned my 05 SRT-4. I remember back in 07 till like 2010, you used to see SRT-4's everywhere. Now, not so much, let alone an SRT swapped 2G neon. Good luck with the whole process and I can't wait to see what you come out with....
yeah man! they're becoming hard to come across these days. seen a few with low miles still selling for over 20K!
I own another disrespected car (Cobalt SS) so I am fuuuullllly into your plan for doing this thing up again. I love it when these 'disrespected' cars get some love from the owners and are turned into works of art. It's much more satisfying to do up a car people trash on and make it worth drooling over than just buying something everyone thinks is cool and doing not much with it.
yea man can definitely relate! here to break down some barriers!
These builds mean the most to me. I love how you're continuing to build upon your project in your Father's memory. I'm devoting my JZX100 Chaser build to my father who past away January 14th, 2017.
thoughts with you man
I've seen this car b4! Had no idea it was yours! Also good to see the guy behind the camera! Keep it bro
I remember seeing this car on ig and all over the internet a looong time ago lol back when I had my red 2nd gen. Love the car man!
i think the last time i saw this thing was when Krispy first started modding legacy wagon and needed your garage
DJ'S Productions yep! that’s pretty much the last time the car drove.
HOLY SHIT , I REMEMBER THAT
I've had a picture of this car as a background on my phone back in the day and always say the pictures and was drooling over it so glad I seen this video, my first car was a 1998 neon sport 5 speed and had 4 others since then never has a srt 4 and this car made me realize and more confident that it don't have to be a srt4 to be awesome this car is the ultimate of individual tastes 👍

So cool to see the project of a guy who shares so many projects by others... this is awesome, Halcyon!
Good luck on your plans. I’m a big fan of the Neon, I owned a 1996 and loved it. I can’t wait to see the progress in the future. You’re thinking of doing exactly what I’ve always wanted to do, strip the car, refresh and reduild it with a better engine. Love it.
thanks dude! i had a 96 and 97 myself that i used for daily duties. would love to do up a 1gn someday as well.
Beautiful car bro
I remember on 2gn when you got this car, you've come a long way man. it's good to see
So glad to see this come back! Been one of my favorite neons for years now.
I've been watching a lot of srt4 vids lately because after 5 years of sitting I've decided to start working on mine again. I'm glad this showed up in my recommended vids because it should be interesting to see how your project comes together. Good luck with it, man.

Thank you!
Super excited for this. And this will 100% add a new dimension to the channel for those who are just coming along!

So excited to finally see you bring it back to life. Long time coming. I'll be watching every step of the way.

I love the look of your R/T, it clean and slick looking. I cant wait to see this project come together.
thank you!
This is really awesome, I just got my first car and it’s a 2002 Dodge Neon SXT and this video has really encouraged me to start modifying my car!
awesome! good luck with it!
I love my stone white acr neon
Makes me happy seen this cars more
Beautiful neon
I REMEMBER YOU ON NJTUNERS!!! I seen your car at the edgewater meet before
Throwback!!! Hell yea man
I'm so glad I found you on here I had your car when it was all red as my back ground on my phone in high school
Yeah... in '03 I had a '99 Neon sport coupe. I had done the exhaust from the header back (pacesetter header) (Flowmaster cat-back). Cold air intake by AEM. 17 inch rims with slotted rotors.

Badass build man! I have a big turbo srt 4 and I’m 17, they’re real fun cars. Good luck on the build man, I’ll be following
Awesome Neon! You have some big dreams, can't wait to see them come to life. BTW I think what you have done to the car this far is impressive already
Thanks very much!
Hope your vision comes true brother . I can’t wait to see it done the way you want it . I know your dad would be proud to see you continue building this car 🙏🏼
thank you CJ
HALCYON no prob hopefully I can meet you at Tuner Evo Philly 🙏🏼 keep up the work bro you are a true inspiration to a lot of us
One of the cleanest neon's iv seen
What are the specs on those works you had on the car? Trying to find a set of wheels for my 02 RT
the think about this car is it doesny matter what money you put in it because you'll never sell it. it's a memory car. its a car you'll cherish forever. looks sick too
Excited to see where it goes! It's a .55 a/r bullseye housing actually. Keeps the 2.0 much more lively when you're not trying to squeeze every little bit of power on the big end.
Hey Erick! Thanks for the correction. When the 2.0L is out I’ll be selling the kit you created so hopefully it’ll go to a nice home and make another Neon owner very happy!
@@HALCYONphoto Let whoever buys it know I'm willing to support them even as a secondary owner.
Erick Steinmaier absolutely! That’s service!
I’ve seen this thing on Instagram it’s sick
thanks!
I've owned my 02 neon since 03 and put an srt4 motor and trans in it over the years. I'm planning to build mine 1 of these days as well... Good luck on the Build 👍🏽
very nice! thank you!
sounds like you've got a lot of fun and hard work ahead of you. looking forward to some super good quality build videos!
thank you!
Really cool! Wish my 2004 Dodge Neon SXT look like that she's all rotted now still running!
Aye if she still runs that’s better than nothing!
@@HALCYONphoto absolutely brother and my condolences I'm sorry to hear about your father...
Love the plans for the build. If you can't find a good SRT4 around, you could always find a PT Cruiser GT. You'll still need some doner parts from an SRT, but those motors are typically less abused.
actually acquired myself a very nice SRT this past weekend :) new video with it soon!
Dodge needs to make another neon, and possibly make it a little bigger so they can fit a hellcat motor in it lol.
@Green Bastard no such thing as a "nice" 4 cylinder " you get a 4 cylinder because you can't afford a bigger motor or the gas or the insurance. And yes it is a lightweight car so it would be awesome with the hellcat motor people have already swapped them into miatas and stuff
@Green Bastard thats true I can respect that. But Ricky Bobby once said "if your not first your last" haha have a nice day buddy.
Car looks great man , can't wait to see it's next form. I own a SRT4 now that I'm working love seeing these cars get love in the scene
thank you! been my favorite platform forever!
@@HALCYONphoto I had a 1st gen slammed when they first came out. Definitely a favorite platform mine
I like your concept, it was also great gaining a little insight into the story of the car and you as a person. I might do a rough render with your plans, hit you up somehow when it's done.
awesome!! thanks!
Super stoked on this series man! I can’t wait to see the final outcome!

Wow! You definitely sound like an OG neons.org member 😂
HALCYON I was on there a little bit back in the day. Mostly a lurker lol.
cant wait to see where your car goes man! keep up the good work
Gavin Davis thanks dude! Plenty of updates in store!
Super excited for this series!!
A Dodge Neon...damn
got nothing else to do because midnight club is still cancelled
Let me tell you how quick I clicked this. 🤣 I remember seeing this thing at the hotel where everyone from 2GN was staying back in, what, 2010-2011? So excited to see this thing back out again.
ayyye, good times man
One of my all time favorite neons. That front bumper with a mopar lip kit is the best. I honestly thought it was an srt4. Lol Looking forward to this. 👍
thank you man!
Excited for the build man good luck
thanks ethan!
Daaaaammmn I remember seeing this car on 2gn forums wen I was in high school its dope to see it's still going
Love it glad to see you getting back into it. This video inspires me to get back in the building my 300zx let's just been sitting in my garage for the past 3 years
Thanks man! Definitely feels good to get started!! Even if it’s just small stuff for now!
Got to do vlogs now on this build man! Can't wait to see more of it myself!
Nothing but the best for your build bro 💯
thank you!
Dude. I remember this car, I met you at Carlisle years ago - had been on 2gn since ‘02. Still have mine as well, it’s been sitting nearly as long as yours. Sub’d and I can’t wait to see this back on the road!

Cannot wait for this series!!!!
Been a fan for years, your videos inspired me to go to school for cinematography, hopefully some day we can collab

Glad to see you're bringing it back! I remember seeing this on your Instagram/videos (might of been Krispys?) back in 2017 and always wondered if you'd start working on it again!

Loving the future plans! I’ll be looking forward to the build content!

Excited to see what you do with this man!

ugh! that 2gn front end 😍 honestly I thinknit looks better then the srt bumper
More updates on her soon!
M'y inspiration in 2012 keep it up the good work
You sir are one humble af human being. Stoked to see this come alive after seeing how you drive mini-vans and Kia's ;) Edit : ( Cough Cough, SEMA , Cough Vibrant )
i'll definitely give it a send
So excited for you Ant! Old girl is gonna rip!
Ive know about this neon for awhile and im in the same boat but you've done what im gonna do congratulations i love your basic neon witch is boss in this video i wanna get in touch with you bro bro damn with the haters say... Love the front end
cant wait until cinematic videos of the car come to show!
yesss! gonna have to have Krispy shoot it!
i really like the '02 front end swap with the eye lids and lip. I had a 2001 Chrysler Neon R/T and the thing i remember most was the intake manifold "flaps" opening up around 5000rpm. An SRT-4 swap would fit right in there and are super easy and cheap to find spare engines for since the Turbo model PT Cruiser and PT Cruiser GT had the exact same engine. I've been thinking about swapping my 1998 Neon R/T coupe but i like the high revving 7800RPM intake sound of the 2.0L DOHC with the Mopar ECU and Iceman intake
Sorry to hear about your dad man...we love you.💚
appreciate you ❤
Impressive build fam. 👍
Well I hit the subscribe button and bell icon cause I'm a huge fan of the srt neons so I'm here for the build
awesome! how'd you find the channel?
@@HALCYONphoto just scrolling through my recommendations and saw a somthing about a neon and had to see what it was all about
Cant wait to see more about your Neon.
Subscribed for the neon!
Can’t wait to see this!!!
Very excited.
ayee i recognize that username!
I love this car I've seen it on the srt4 owners group and it's just gorgeous
aye! thanks man!
He’ll yeah man love the neon!
I’ve got a 97 1gen and an 01 2gen
Hyped homie. Keep it up.🙏
so i've seen pictures of this car for years, i always catch myself looking at it, considering a Chrysler bumper for my White 05 ACR
Waiting to see more
Hell yeah...that's awesome man!!! Ever thought about removing the chrysler emblem? I think it would give it a more "shaved" and clean look...cheers!
would definitely like to do that! will have to think about how to execute that, as behind the emblem is a plastic molding of the shape of it.
I'm so excited!
It’s about time you showed us god dam
