    Of course, the sunroof mechanism is in the FSM, just as it is in any vehicle that has one available as a factory option. But does it document the fact that the vehicle is not available w/o one?

    Adjust your tire pressures. With the Spec Neon setup we run the Toyos at 35 psi front and 40-42 psi rear. The higher pressures in the rear help with rotation.

    That sounds about right actually. The spec weight for the DOHC is 2650, so that would put him at 2470. My car is at 2465 with a full tank of fuel and no ballast. I'm guessing most DOHCs would have...

    Shouldn't the Omni GLH be moved to ITB at the same time as the Shelby Charger? I can't think of any differences between the two vehicles that would justify separate classing.

    The Neon uses a 5x100 bolt pattern. Something around 35mm offset works well.

    Rota makes two different 15x7 wheels for the Neon, both are available from Modern Performance for under $500/set.
