srt4?

This man speaks the truth. For instance, dodge actually sought out a specially bred race hamster from the rainforests of peru to allow maximum torque and horsepower at the same time.

Your civic envy is so green irish friend.

Wrong.
Everything about the SRT-4 was beefed up, trans, clutch, block, head, valves.

The trans was out of the V6 stratus coupe, a quaife LSD was installed, a beafy clutch, equal length axles, big hubs and rotors.
The block was reinforced (SRT and PT GT block) has extra ribs in it for strength, the exhaust valves are inconel. The head is the best flowing 4cyl head dodge/chysler has ever made in a production vehicle. Forged internals with oil squirters, etc etc, the list goes on.

Everything about that car is designed to handle the abuse and upgrades.
No matter what the SRT team(or SVT or whoever) puts into a vehicle, when retards start "tuning" or tuners push things over the limit (500hp on stock internals) things break.

Yeah, whatever. This happened to my son's barely over stock output srt4 after he had it for less than a week. I believe it caused over $9k damage. The dealship totally repaired his car because (I believe) he had it for such a short time. This is a rare occurance. But it's happening more as people mod their car. So keep thinking your srt4s are tough.

Sweet! Im sure you son was gingerly driving along at 55mph in the right lane and the clutch blew up right?

I will continue to "think" the SRT's are tough, because they are. Mine had what....a few hundred trips down the 1320 on the stock longblock and tranny/clutch axles. WITH SLICKS and not an issue. And I know many others have.

Again, with someone who doesnt know wrong from right behind the wheel, chances of failure go up Improper "tuning" or driving will cause failure in any vehicle.


Bummer about your sons car, im sure your v6 stang is indestructable eh?

Dollar per hp, the SRT4 is a VERY good bargain.

Yes, 2005 was the last year.

He got his totally rebuilt for free, so he came out good. But it's still slower than the 6er that has 110k on the clock.

[ACRucrazy]

The funny thing about neons is this..

You cant really brag that you beat one, i mean after all, its "still a neon"

But you really dont want to admit it when you lose it one either, because you just got beat by just a neon.

Those pics look like your son decided to shift from 4th to 3rd... you should probably be blowing that dealership for taking the hit on his fuckup...

It was with your TPS reports.

My bet is WOT 3-2.

That or some nice burn outs with the stock LCA bushings on that 2004 with a quaife.

No, that's not what happened. The clutch didn't let go. It was a malfunction associated with the flywheel. Read up about this situation before you start guessing.
