No. u don't. plug your ears and be ready to break da sound barrier by redline.

it appears that the 2002 neon tranny bolts directly up to the eclipse motor. im going to switch out diff's and i should be ready to go.

Hmmm, well this is an interesting thread. What is the difference/advantage to a 2002 Neon tranny over the NVT350? I'm curious.

samething. The SOHC versions have a diff gear ratio. mostly taller. from 2000+ they have a ft.lb. rating thats 30 ft.lbs. higher.

its on the main page.

read up , its all here.

yeah, their gears are all taller. our t350's have a 3.94 final drive, vs the sohc neon 3.55. helps those high hp peeps from making slicks out of their tires through 1st and 2nd.

it doesn't appear that you have to swap bell housing. it looks identical except for where the shifter linkages are. the bracket for those will have to be swapped. ill see when it comes time to bolt it on.

Will the speedo now be off or is it referenced from something other than RPM?

Speedo will be correct. it's not generated off engine RPM, but by a gear on the diff. Changing any ratio before the diff will result in the correct reading off the diff as far as speed goes.

Yes, the 2002 will bolt right up, the 2G Neons use a T350 with a hydralic clutch setup just like we do. Might still need to use the 2GNT shift select levers.

mmm, I'll have to think about this for my future. Very interesting indeed.

wasted energy

ok.. well this is what we had to do.

I have a phatom grip in my differential, and the ring gear which the diff is bolted to doesn't fit in the neon tranny. so.. I had to take my diff off the eclipse ring gear, and bolt it onto the neon ring gear. worked like a charm.

check out my post in turbo disc about whp and a video.

the car definetly drives different. thats all i have to say right now about it.. ill make a video this weekend.

yeah, you have to use the Neon ring gear as that's part of the final drive ratio.

it's fucking awesome, isn't it?
