I would, but they still want too much for the SRT4s vs. a PT GT. I'm really thinking about getting a second gen R/T. This will be for a daily driver so I don't need anything fancy.
Here is a question for everyone. Are there some stock height springs which are a higher rate than the stock springs for the second gen cars? I ordered up some Koni street struts and would like something slightly stiffer, but everything I see is at least a 1.5" drop.

If it ain't broke, fix it 'till it is!
Thanks for the suggestion guys. I'm now off to research SRT4 spring rates.
Looks like the SRT4 springs will drop the car about 1/2" and are 20lbs stronger. I think we might have a winner. Thanks for the suggestions.
Now to find a set. Does anyone know of a place which sells the stock springs?
Check facebook groups for partouts.

I put out a wanted thread for them. I'll let you know what I find.

I have a set of 2g R/T springs Id sell. They dont lower the car at all but are stiffer then stock. I do not know how much. SRT perches are only higher in the rear, front is the same from what I understand.
Thanks for the offer. I installed the struts last week and I actually like how it sits right now. Once I do the fronts I'll reevaluate how it sits and rides and let you know if I want something stiffer.
I need to do the brakes on my 1st gen Neon and I'm thinking that a swap to 11" brakes would be a great thing to do. I need to find a 91+ setup, but that shouldn't be too difficult. Does anyone know if the 24mm MC will bolt right on and function properly?
I just ordered up some Koni struts for my 95. Does anyone make a little stiffer spring which won't lower the car at all? That's the last thing this car needs.
I thought the SRT-4 perches were higher all around to accommodate the larger wheels?
Plus (and I could be wrong) that stock 2nd gen springs in a 1st gen would leave it sitting slightly *higher* due to the difference in weight. Anyone confirm?
If the two things I've said above are true, then a stock set of SRT-4 springs would be what you're looking for.

My 2002 R/T has 226k miles. I would love to find a base 2002 to swap everything over and not have a sunroof. That roof is heavy
