a race

[Marvin97]

14.2 -13.9 is pretty much par for the course in a stock srt4 with a good driver

 

[the5.ohh]

A caliber srt4 has 285 hp and 265 ft lbs of torque, I wouldn't do it. And thats what they make bone stock...

 

[the.greg]

^+1 Ive read numerous accounts online of them being under-rated by dodge, thats actually closer to whp ratings.

 

[the5.ohh]

^Thats even worse haha

 

[1997GT4.6]

LOL damn and why do we still drive these old turds?!?!?!

Don't do it unless your okay with hearing about it every day. You will get raped so hard with no lube lol.

 

[Tony]

i drive mine cause it's purdy. not fast, lol. tbh i was a little shocked when i first bought this (my first mustang) that it was'nt really that fast. so i started adding bolt ons all over the place, lol. was'nt till i installed 3.73's that i felt any real difference. but i will say it runs really nice. it's gotta little pep and sounds awesome. def a head turner...i like the sn's for those reasons.

 

[the5.ohh]

^This. I love having a unique car, only sn's by me is a destroyed 96-98 V6 and a 96-98 Cobra vert

after you lose the race, you could challenge him to a donut/burnout contest

 

[ttocs]

if you do loose you always have the ability to do the fly-by of course after he hits his breaks.

If you can't beat them, so some cool chit they can't do!!

 

[John Nich]

Well. Remember this. your car may be older, and slower, and weather not you win, or lose, or decide to race nor not.... it's still a mustang. and that's why you got the hotter Girl. ...(Probably).

 

[MustangChris]

^LOL so true.


"my man drives a neon" said no hot chick ever.

lmao

 

[whitey]

lol i love my neon but im not stupid and slap a turbo on it, run my mouth about it, and act like its fast or gunna be fast cuz its not lol

 

[ScottyDsntKnow]

Oh god I remember the SRT-4 Neon crowd when those things were still new... I seriously thought all the ricer stereotypes were just interwebz trolling until I met a few SRT-4 owners... yikes... there is also a reason you almost NEVER see one around anymore... As for the Caliber you will get assraped with a spiked war dildo with no lube if you race that thing in a stock SN unless he can't drive at all and you do it from a stop for a short distance.

And as for why we drive these things still... they look amazing, they are CHEAP to mod, parts are plentiful, dollar for dollar they go faster than just about anything out there and a built turbo 4.6 running the same boost these new age turbo guys run will make a metric shitton more power, be very reliable, sound better and RWD>FWD any day of the week and twice on Sunday. Funniest thing I ever read on the SRT-4 forum other than an idiot who did an oil change by running his motor with the filter off to get all the oil out because he couldn't get the drain plug off was that the SRT-4 Neon was a superior DRAG platform to a Mustang... yeah... ah memories.

 

[the5.ohh]

^Lmao. Totally agree with you on the fwd thing, I will always own a rwd car. I absolutley hate fwd.

 

[sn95jones]

i actually know he will

as much as i love mustangs, my old srt neon would spank a stock sn' ass, lolol. that's just cause it was factory turbo'd. now turbo a 4.6 and well...


i'd say the caliber is bout 260-300 horse. turbo'd 2.4L?

You're also comparing a turbo 4 cyl to a turbo 8 cyl. IMO Set of cams, gears, headers, intake, CAI, and a tune and you'd probably see a good race.

THe Caliber will clober you OP no doubt.

 

[HrdwoodGoat]

Go on the first honk....you'll be fine.

 

[sn95jones]

Go on the first honk....you'll be fine.

He'll still lose.

 

[HrdwoodGoat]

He'll still lose.

Yep.
