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?

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.

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.

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.

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.:down:

01-11-2008, 11:28 AM
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

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.

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.

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.

There are idiots in every group. I've run into a VW 1.8T on my way home from school twice, both times he sped pass me and let his bov go off right as he was window to hood. I swear it had to be the most annoying bov in the entireeee whole, stupidly high pitched and squeaky. Sounded like a duck was dying or something.
It's not even just lower end cars that do this either. The other night a brand new bmw 335 pulled up next to me, downshifts and stayed like that. He taps on the gas a few times to pull away and slow down. Eventually he floors it and takes off as i ignore him.
The bmw was more funny than anything, but geeeezzzz that vw bov made me wanna cut my fucking ears off.

Down here it seems to be that most of the SRT-4 owners think they have the fastest car on the block which you could relate to the Honda generation when it first got popular.
For every import car genre there are the douchebags that think they have the hottest shit even if it stock.

Most of the ones I know think they have the fastest car ever. I call them Neons all day long, cause that's what they are. Only 1 SRT4 I know, actually admits to that. The other just throw a shit storm over how it's not a Neon. Silly Neon owners.

i dont care if its an srt4, shit is still wack as fuck and i never look twice

all of the fags in town drive those goofy looking srt4s and they just put loud ass bovs on them.
ive never seen srt4 owners deny they have a neon, but ive never talked to one of those faggots
srt4s not being neons? thats a joke

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.

01-11-2008, 03:19 PM
yeah pretty much any neon i see on the freeway loves to get attention by letting off there bov's and i just look at them and laugh or i dont pay them any mind its pointless. But this goes with any other car as well. When i was driving my civic recently some clown in a s14 stock as hell 4 lug with an exhaust, tinted window, and a bought it at scion of whatever plate was revin the shit outta me. So i proceed he slows down and guns it to get close to me again as if to let off pressure of a blow off valve when it wasn't turboed lol. I just gave him a thumbs down and he rolled down his window and before he said anything i told him to be mature because if it was my s13 on the street i eat you for lunch and rolled up my window and laughed. Of course it wasnt over then. he proceeded with a burnout out and took off on the 10fwy heading east. As i looked he had a i love jdm sticker on his rear windshield....figures....

There was an SRT4 trying to provoke a race with me in glendale, of all places. Unsurprisingly, he got pulled over because he was revving, misfiring, peeling out all over the place, trying to get me to follow him.
Love it.
On the other hand, I've been in a 370whp SRT4 with suspension mods on mulholland (sp?) and I was a little surprised with its above-average handling.

Wow you guys are some hateful people. There's an older guy in the Clemson Sports Car Club that races a SRT-4 on road courses and places pretty well from what I understand. Probably better than anyone here could. Yes SRT-4s are neons, but what are 240SXs? Cars sold with truck engines that require a swap to be worth while?
Also, I hate to break it to you guys but there are just as many 240SX owners as SRT-4 owners that have the 15 year old "fastest car ever" mentality. :ugh:

You're an idiot who hasn't done enough reading. First off it's not a truck engine. The KA24 series engine was put into cars before it was placed into a truck. Also, adding boost to the KA makes it a lot more worthwhile than half the swaps available. Only reason too really go for a CA18 or SR20 is for the lightweight factor of both engines and usually lower mileage.
On Topic: I actually like SRT4s for what they offer: An amazing quick ride for very little money. They're quite reliable from what I've read and a couple srt4 owners. Plus the fact that some go for less than $10k nowadays is reason enough to consider one sometimes. The owners are what pretty much failed this car. So many jackass kids get these, get a slight taste of boost and boom! Instant retard! Hell, one of my friends has crashed his SRT4 several times already. Pure Jackass!

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.

1.) the neon ACR is widely recognized as a top competitor for entry level club racing
2.) the srt-4 is a lot of fun for not a lot of money (or, was, when new)
3.) whenever cheap speed shows up, the assholes are already there, and always will be. see:
-evo
-WRX
-srt4
-mustang
-f body
-supercharged ecotec shitboxes (cobalt, ion)
all of these cars can be found, somewhere, roaming in packs, all being driven by the same guy. he gels his hair back, he sprays on half a can of Axe before leaving his shanty apartment, he thinks R-Racing rubber floor mats from autozone are cool enough to warrant slapping the included matching decal on a window. his car payment is more than his rent, and sucks down more than half his income.
he is a tool.
but it's not the car's fault.

The worse part about what you said is that I've actually seen people put the wing, hood, rims, 'dual exhaust' and front bumper on a regular Neon and pretend its an SRT :keke:
I would love to see the RS make it's way over here, too. The Focus does indeed have it's roots from Europe, and it is held much higher over there than it is here (Google Image European Focus, the differences are amazing).
I had a buddy who went over to Greece a few years ago with his family and rented an RS, and said it was a beast and a half.

REAL cars have plexiglass/lexan windows. Plus, I'd much rather have a 4 door with power front and crank rears than a 2 door with power front and a barely usable rear seat. Honestly, how often do you see someone riding in the back of a SRT-4? You guys need to get off your high horses. :ughug:

The worse part about what you said is that I've actually seen people put the wing, hood, rims, 'dual exhaust' and front bumper on a regular Neon and pretend its an SRT :keke:
I would love to see the RS make it's way over here, too. The Focus does indeed have it's roots from Europe, and it is held much higher over there than it is here (Google Image European Focus, the differences are amazing).
I had a buddy who went over to Greece a few years ago with his family and rented an RS, and said it was a beast and a half.
You can import the 1994-1995 Escort RS Cosworth.

99.9% of srt-4 drivers think there car is the fastest car on the road..
gus if you are reading this... please.. bring them all!!! line them all up!:yum:
I wonder if the the SRT4 owners forums have a thread about S chassis owners? Iv'e never driven one but a couple of my co-workers own them. It's not a bad car and it is diff faster than a stock 240SX on a roll which I have witnessed. Every platform owners has shitbird usually I ignore them.

Next time you see the srt-4, just tell him to roll down his back windows! LOL
My freind raced a srt-4 in his Wrx Wagon, and when we passed him we rolled down are rear windows! rear windows FTW

Probably. There's a stereotype for every car culture.
240s: Drifters
F-Bodies: Mullets
Hondas: Ricers
Subarus: Anal Retentiveness
etc. etc....

What's the SRT-4 stereotype to sum it up in a few words according to most? Neon driver? Cocky fucks in denial? Cheap econobox? ^_^

My impression is that the srt4 = american made ff honda with a stock turbo. All they seem to do is challenge people to street races here in So Cal.

here again I don't believe you actually passed an srt4 during a race because I beat my friends lightly modified wrx 4 door times at the track. With you friends car being a wagon, and you being in it, I highly doubt you guys passed the srt4 in a race. The stigma that follows srt4s is because younger people could afford these cars and as we know young people tend to feel like they need to be flashy and show off. I was never challenged by a 240 to race but I would definitely have taken the challenge and won unless the 240 was boosted and built or swapped.

i don't really have a problem w/ the car itself except i think it's ugly and it's a neon. it's the people who own them. at least the people in socal. they're all kids too.
i got rev on by a civic today for a change. haha maybe it's the area i live in. other 240 owners just waive at me w/ the thumbs up or peace sign. i wonder is fellow srt owners do that or do they just rev each other too.... i'm betting they rev on each other to see who's valve is louder.

But what is the ACR Neon? STILL FASTER THAN MOST 240SXs!
An ACR neon would beat up a stock 240 on track
Just tell the srt4 driver that he drives a turbo NEON and that REAL cars have power windows in front AND back.
Real cars don't have movable rear windows ;)
Neons and srt4's have power windows up front and crank down windows in the back. Veird and ghey at teh same time
Not all are that way, but yes, very very odd!
a couple weeks ago i wound up next to him at a stoplight. i look over and roll my window down, he does the same. "NICE CAR!" i yell. he says thanks. "I LOVE MR2'S!" he frowns the deepest frown man has ever known. his cunt hasn't just been hurt. it has been irreparably damaged.
HAHAHAHAAH Perfect!!!

Deep down, I like SRT4's. Very fun and capable little cars. Good torque, decent handler, and a usuable car (trunk/4 seats)

hey any idea why dodge made teh srt4? i guess its kind of a hotrod aplication? thier answer to teh sport compact tuning craze?
A few sentra vspecs ive come accross are almost simular as to where they want to race you.. but hardly do i see those cars on the street... i cant recall seeing any of teh saturn ion redline or the chevy colbalt ss cars on the street, doesnt seem like a hot seller. vw drivers seem pretty chill, i also like those cars =p

ill have to agree with you. srt-4's will walk me from a roll. stock for stock.
bro, you drive an evo. stock for stock the srt4 should not beat you from a roll. do you have an 8 or 9?

I was never challenged by a 240 to race but I would definitely have taken the challenge and won unless the 240 was boosted and built or swapped.
it all depends on the mods between the srt4 and wagon. there isnt much weight difference between wagon and sedan. my buddys wagon runs mid 12s all day with bolt on mods. it all depends on how well the car is built and how good of a tune. goes both ways, even for the srt4, 240 or whatever car.
!Zar!
01-14-2008, 11:31 AM
srt4's still drive better than 240's.
Neon or not.
Now lets all go unbolt our exhaust so we can have open dp just like them.

u are sooo lucky i swear ! ! ! ! lol
btw srt owners yes some of them are like honda owners ...
however some of them mind there own business, and just like any other car if u build it right its fast ...
personally i think there fast cars for it being a 17k car new ... compared to a sti /evo almost 30k and they are bearly fast if that ... all stock ...
one good thing about them they are TQ'y like a motha fucker ... i mean put those lil neons on slicks and there outa there ... w/o slicks there horrible all that tq on a fwd is no good ...
would i ever buy one? probably not
is it a girl car? yeah maybe
but none the less with the right parts/tunning and slicks that is one fast car .... (jeff) with bolt ons stock turbo and stock internals make alot more than 287/317whp and alot more than 304lbs of tq .....:keke:

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.

so you are making my point for me, 70lbs more plus a passenger and well assume 175 pounds for the passenger, thats 245 lbs more and he's saying the wagon beat the srt4........i just don't believe it.

there's a guy around here with a bright orange lotus elise. he drives like a complete shithead and thinks he's awesome. while his car is cool, he's a douche.
a couple weeks ago i wound up next to him at a stoplight. i look over and roll my window down, he does the same. "NICE CAR!" i yell. he says thanks. "I LOVE MR2'S!" he frowns the deepest frown man has ever known. his cunt hasn't just been hurt. it has been irreparably damaged.
I couldn't stop laughing when I read this
I get a lot of scion TCs revving at me now, two years ago I couldn't be on the same street as an srt4 w/out them running me down and blowing off at my window.
last night was just at the movies with a date and this guy in a TC follows me stops with his exhaust at my window and revs the shit out of it at me, then drives away slowly goes around a building when he gets to the other side of the building he revs at me again. So TCs are the new srt4s at least for me. I just dont see them anymore.

The dude has I/H/E, 3 passengers, and he says "lets find some stupid honda and race him"
And of course he was revving at every honda he saw but thankfully none obliged, I felt kinda bad for him because he was dead serious with his whole I/H/E setup.
As for Neons, I kinda like em but they are kinda like the V8 mustang owners from my experience.
BTW What the fuck is a stage 3? Stage 3 clutch? thats the only time I ever hear a stage _ being used.

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?
in west palm durring highschool there used to be soo many of them we would call them SRT4metoo's
like you got a srt4? me tooo!
upgraded frontmount? me too!
stupid ass big wing? me too!
crack ass tunes blaring? me too!
