SRT-4 Beaters
 

Has anyone raced any stock or modded Srt's an what were some of the verdicts. I blew my head gasket last month race my cousins Srt-4. I was racing untuned(I know, I know) But I just put my kit on and change out a dizzy so it was advance way too much. Anyhoot, I felt like i was going to had him his walking papers and then lost power at about 110mph. I got my car fixed but now he has a T3/t04e and i wan't to know my chances

Re-read twice, post once...

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

judging by your set up you have a decent chance, i raced a "stage 2" srt-4 in my crx (turbo b16) and walked it no problem, but it was from a roll and those srt's have some serious torque, they had a dyno day at a local shop here a few days ago, stock motor srt-4 layed down like 370 hp/400tq on a t3/t4 thats a fast ------ neon....

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

i just raced a newer impreza i dont think it was a sti but i heard the bov he beat me by about 3 car lenghts in my 300zx

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

a regular wrx is piss ass poor slow as ----, and ---- sti's too, they're fast, but i'll ---- on 'em.... ;D

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

wrx = 15 flat lol

mid 14s with 7k tranny shatter launch

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

---- that id rather take a sti over a boosted civic anyday. even if the civic is running 50 psi.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

why?

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

well of you got to 110 mph you were racing way to lon g, it must have been much longer than 1/4 mile so after that I don't know how cars work, and thats not vin desil quarter mile , thats pat musi/real street racing quarter mile. and srt4 's run in tthe 13s factory 1/4 mile whihc is about average for a turboed honda

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

---- that :3

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I watched Daniel Trimnal's bone stock LS swap in a gutted 90 DX hatchcrap, on 13" beater tires, piss on an STi twice in a row, from a standstill @ traffic lights. Let's hear it for wrong wheel drive and 108 whp vs AWD drivetrain losses and HYPE.

WRXs are slow, faggot vehicles. I refuse to ride in them.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I have beaten all the srts4 I raced except fo oner,last night I was in frankfurt at the so called friday night fights. raced 2 srt4 beat up the stock one by about 15 cars, the other on is modified with boost turned up to 22 psi, my civic is at 17psi I took him out from a stop, but then he caught up with me and it was a neck to neck race, then we ran again from a roll at 40 mph. took him again in qaurter mile. but since the race was on a long stretch on the autobahn it was about a mile long. so cars with top end speed will win. he tracked me down and it was a neck finish again. so the modified srt4's are hard to beat on the autobahn.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

you should have givin up before you got to 110- i mean, did you really think you were gonna beat him? or were you thinking....at 120 i should be able to catch him...

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I beat a stock one from a stop. He put his boost controller on and ran 17psi (actually slowed him down) on a basically stock setup. He also had like 5 people total in his car, but I had a passenger also and two Si rear trailing arms in the hatch. Very close race but I came out on top when he put the boost controller on.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

No were neck and neck. He had to shift a lot quicker then me so I felt like I was going to get the upper hand when shifted to the next gear. We were not at a track we were on the highway. I beat my friend Stewart's Stage 2 SRT bad by like 2.5 car lenths from 0-90 or 100. He got a better start then my but by my 2nd I pulled him bad. He dyno'ed at 245hp and 275tq. The funny thing is my cousin only had Stage 1 and mods and dyno the same day and the on same dyno at 275hp and 292tq. My cousin could beat Stewart Stg2 all day long.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

and in the end their car is still a piece of ---- neon, goddam at PR last year i must have counted 15 of them.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

and how many Civcs-intergas-crx's did you count. Don't be a hater. I mean I don't like Neons either but if a car is fast It should matter if it a Boosted Kia. If fast and it's gotta be respected as so. Sort of like a Rattle snakes. You may not like them, but you need to realize they are a force to be reckoned with.

Your right Neons are not cool!!! Think of it like this: A Neon is to Lancers & Imprezas as Srt-4's are to Evos & STI's

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I raced one yesterday from 50 on pulled him in mid 4th gear :-)

and got it on video

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I saw a stock one and a stage 2 one run at our 1/8th mile track and they weren't running anything impressive. I wouldn't worry about it

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I would die to see that vid. BTW what's you set up cuz I have a EK coupe same color. Your car looks hot in you avitar

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

Well post that ---- up homey!! ;D

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

But who does on a 1/8 mile track. Especially if your a torque monster with no slicks.... ie An SRT or make money on the top end...ie Hondas
Only the 4wd or V'8 guy like 1/8mile

A 1/8 mile track is like a striptease. Just enough to get you hot and bothered. And have you want more

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I will as soon as I get some kind of video convertor

I need one of those dazzle capture devices so I can get it off this camera and onto my computer

we were literally side by side 2nd and 3rd but into 4th I pulled on him

good video

gonna head to best buy and look for a good deal on a capture device

anyone selling one? lol

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

modded srt4 are fast and I learned that last night. he said he was at 160mph whenwe started slowing down, so that means I was going about 155mph. he also spanked the ---- out of my friend supercharged mustang Gt.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

evertime i see sti i wanna piss on it and ------ roll it over it's owner. and i ------ hate people bragging on their pos subaru. and chicks around here are wanting those damn things like crazy, all of them ------ hating on my civic. :8

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

If you really want to piss an SRT-4 owner off just say "nice neon!" or "it's still a neon" or something to that effect.

They like to think that it's not a neon anymore now that it has a turbo.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

im editing te vid right now should have it hosted somewhere here shortly

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

like some people like to think its not a honda anymore cuz it has a turbo ? ;)

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

Like, You took the words right out of my mouth. I concure 100%

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

people buy srt4's cause they are quick from the factory, now that should tell you something. Not yo many honda's come factory turbo ::) just say" you bought yours, i built mine." :6

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

Okay. Srt's are not that bad of cars. By no way shape or form are they slow. Yeah they came from the factory running 14.0s. Yes its still a Neon but a rather faster neon. I drive one daily right now cause my civic is down. The car moves. And not many people have beaten this car. No Evo and def not STI......The car ran 13.1mph at like 105 or so on bald street tires before some of the things that are done to it now were done. Now the car is actually faster than that. When my friend first got the car he got beat by an ex coupe with a z6 motor and super 60 on 11psi. Off the top of my head thats the only race we ever lost. Any Evo that has stepped up has gotten beat and also STI's. Before the intake manifold and other things were done, the car made 260whp and 310lb ft torque @ 16ish psi untuned.Not saying that the car is unbeatable. Just saying don't sleep on it or them.

my .02 cents

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

I've NEVER heard anyone claim their Honda wasn't a Honda after putting a turbo on it. ??? Every SRT owner I've seen always claims their Neon isn't a Neon. That should tell you something. :P If I were that ashamed of my car to where I had to lie about what it is, I'd sell it. :P

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

i raced my friends srt on 22psi last night and he raped me lol...

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

i personally havent raced one yet, but they are kinda cool commin from the factory all done up... front mount stock (thats Kinda Nice). But i must say i seen a brod run one down the quarter and i wasn't very impressed.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

Yes that is right :y

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

i have a few vids i would like to share:

one with just exhaust

www.fourgasmmotorsports.com/srt4race1.wmv

modded one with intake, exhaust, wga at 17psi? who knows what else, he wouldn't tell. i hung good and think i had the edge but i was shifting slow due to a stock clutch. oh well

http://www.fourgasmmotorsports.com/srt4race2.wmv

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

Exhaust is a big allowence on the SRT4's their stock exhaust is very restrictive to comply with emission standards. Apparently it can help a lot, but I really don't know how much.

Wonder how long they last as far as the longevity of the car over time.

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

awesomeness

Re: SRT-4 Beaters
 

One of the local SRT-4 guys cut off his cats and ran 2.5" piping through a Dynomax Welded Ultraflow, let half the air out of his factory rubber, and installed a boost controller. 16-17 psi, he was stroking a lot of the Cobra + LS1 guys from a roll, and not doing too bad from a launch. Stock Cobra + LS1, but those are pretty strong cars.
