SRT4 Owners

[powersteeringless180sx]

I was at the gas station by my house tonight. As i was pumping my gas there's a guy w/ an SRT4 parked in front of the mini mart and my car just happens to be facing him. He pulls out and as he drives by my car to get out of the gas station he revs and starts giving me valve while i'm still pumping my gas. My theory is that anyone w/ an SRT4 is a douche. Do you guys agree w/ me on this one?

[mademedoit]

I don't really see srt4's anymore ... I think most of those cars broke down already and lost their warranty because of mods! Ha ha yea most of the drivers seamed like real douchebags too.

Most of them are, just dont call their cars Neons, they get butt-hurt over that.

QFT! Yup, the 2-3 I know have all broke and have been that way for a while. One was fully built, spun a bearing. The only one i see locally much is one that DD with 391whp. lolz.


SRT-4, the NEW DSM.

they'll always be neons to me lol... i didn't know they had reliability issues.... figure they are domestics and the owners think they're drag racing at every stop light. i could see those piece of shits breaking down all the time.

[hustlervibes]

Most of them just think they have the fastest car ever and then blow up while losing to someone.

The sad part is that most of the honda ricer kids (the ones who think slapping a I/H/E on a car will make it beat a corvette), bought these cars.

[jackjack]

i love when they rev at me going the opposite direction or in the middle of rush hour. thats HOT

[steve shadows]

yeah it's still a neon.

A FUCKING NEON

even if it has 650 whp , it's a NEON

[HWYKING]

yea i used to hate the honda ricer kids here in the valley with a passion, but it seems they have gotten cooler over the years and giving thumbs up, and now its these turds trying to rev at you from across the st, or blowing off or whatever. i dont care how much power they have...its still a neon.

[punxva]

they just love that the build boost at idle, and they blow off so easily... Also not that i condone street racing, but a few years back i was on the interstate and one tried to race, i kept up with him with a na KA with only an intake and exhaust. But those were the days when i was stupid, now i just laugh when i see them trying to race people

I have to call BS on this because I had an srt4 and often kept up with evos and STIs. I would gladly wager any amount you would like to that a bone stock srt4 would leave any 240 with an intake and exhaust.


I loved my srt4 and have seriously considered getting another as a daily driver. Those cars offered the best performance value period. I beat, at the drag strip, mustang gts, turbo eclipses, gtis at will, and several other cars. $21,000 for something that could legitimately dip into the 13s with a good driver and good conditions seems like a good deal to me.

ill have to agree with you. srt-4's will walk me from a roll. stock for stock.

from a dig, it's obviously a different story.

[exitspeed]

Not all. Some. One of my best friends had a Neon. He's not a douche. Well yea he is, but the Neon has nothing to do with it.

I also know a guy who AutoX's a neon who is an EXTREMELY awesome driver and down to Earth.

It's not that the SRT4 makes them a douche. It's more that a lot of douche bag ricers are drawn to the SRT4.

exactly. its like saying that every person that drives a 240 or AE86 is a drifter when i know more than a handful who drive them and have never drifted the cars. just like the cars and hooked them up. im pretty sure anyone who drives a modified import is stereotyped as a street racer or misfit when not all of us are. but..the majority of the peeps who drive the neons are clowns.

I agree.

VTA BOV is so 2002.

[HaNgTyMe]

srt4

srt4

[punxva]

yeah actually now that i think about it, we can't really say they all are, i mean i'm sure they think we are all drifters, and i'm sure there is some thread on another car's forum about us, so it's all perception and generalizations

[HWYKING]

maybe out where you guys are at there are some exceptions, but in my lil area? in all the years since that car has been out, there has only been one guy that i roadraced with, but he was an older kat. out here there is nothing but young highschoolers driving those, or cobalts and they think they either have more power than ferrari just cuz their car is loud. i can just guess how it will get once i start seeing the new srt4 out on the road.

[KiLLeR2001]

Most of the SRT-4 I see running around do stupid street racing shit. And lets not forget the high revs right by an upcoming stop sign just to flaunt the BOV sound. I get these guys all the time revving their engines up to my car as if I'm actually gonna stoop to that level. Ha. Funny.

I do the BOV sound. well not to flaunt. I live in BFE and theres no one ever around, but going down the highway i play the throttle so itll go off alot. It turns me on. I like it.

[SimpleS14]

I think most, not all fit that bill.

weren't the older Neon coupes good that auto-x/road racing?

The ACR Neons handled great! All the factory suspension stuff madea huge difference!


However....in general, Neons aren't bad little handling econo-boxes. My mom got one for free (some thing through work) and I thouroughly love beating the hell out of it...but it really does work well for a cheap little pile!

Yea they'll run for a long time. But ever little thing will break on'em. Like interior trim pieces, sunroofs, etc.

My other brothers Beater 96 Peon with 160,000 runs well

But yes, their transmissions are known to be their weakpoints. They are a typical sub 10,000 car...not expecting 2008 Maxima niceness out of them

[IStop4NoMan]

srt-4 owners live their lives one 1/4 mile at a time.

actually one was pretty cool. he was really surprised when my crappy looking 240 kept up with him. he gave me the nod of approval.

[LongGrain]

i know like 4 or 5 guys that have them, all of them are really cool. 2 of them are putting down ~600whp daily driven. pretty fuckin badass.

[low and slow]

Most are, yes. For the price tag, they are a really good deal, and if you have the patience to deal with the others who make the car look like shit (guilt by association FTL, haha), they are a great platform to work on.
