JPG'S Driving Passion

Juan P's Driving Passion

Welcome, this page is for the SOUL purpose of allowing people a glimpse into my psyche. Well, that and showing off my car!

This is the day after Ag and I got together. We drove in he pouring rain to a weekend shindig in Chilliwack. The first day I found out the stock rubber sucked in the rain!

Me, at the Grand Canyon

My other loyal steed

My car... My car is a 2000 Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth Neon. Dodge and Plymouth in the US, Chrysler in Canada. Canada? Yeah, That's where I live! Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada to be exact.

The car was purchased on August 2000. Out of several options, (Tiburon,Civic,Protege, Sentra)I chose this one maily because...I like the looks of it and it was a good deal. Although, sometimes I wish I could have waited for the R/T to come out.

Ag's first visible modification

I belive that the coolest way to travel is by car. You can go almost enywhere you want when you want. No schedules to keep just you, your car and the open road. I never knew I'd turn out to be such a car buff. I also never imagind the car's potential... that is, until I started driving it!

After a not too serious accident.(BTW if you're reading this...thanks for cutting me off!) I got new, better rubber for Ag. 'V'rated 205/55 series baby!! What a difference it made!

With the wider tires, shorter springs, cat-back exhaust and window tint...this 2K Ag is certainly different looking!

Here's Ag in the company of my best friend. It was February and I had just purchased a set of H&R springs for the car. At the time it already had a Cat-Back exhaust with Dynomax flow-thru muffler,the wider tires and tinted windows. Because the car was super low, it took cornered like it was on rails. However, it also made driving in Holecouver extremely painful for both Ag and pasengers alike. Needless to say, I removed the H&R's two weeks later and have been looking to replace them with Eibach ever since.

The cup? Its for reference (Bitching at H&R) that's more than the advertised 1.5"

Anyway, it's been one year and a bit and Ag and I are like one.We've been through a lot. Grocery shopping, hauling (not just ass), tour guiding, short trips, long trips and last but not least...Auto-X-ing! Yup, that too.
