That SRT-4 can rape the STI, WRX, the RSX and even the 350Z on the 1/4 mile, outrageous performance for some American econo car.

yea it can if the guy in the srt-4 was the better driver, or if he modified it. if they all had same driver in it, the sti would definately beat it, while 350z should be slightly faster or about the same as the srt-4 depending on yr, and options. the 350z does the 1/4 in 14.1, from car and driver.

i Highly doubt that a 350z lost 2 a srt-4.... yes they are quick... yes it is a turbo charged mercedes engine...but in all the srt-4 has a special option which most people dont know about... only the people that buy them... the srt-4 has a optional stage 2 and stage 3 package for the engine... the stage 2 jumps the hp up 2 about 260 at the wheel and the stage 3 puts out 315 hp at the wheel... these options do not void the warrenty... yea of course it can murder a 350 with 315 hp... it does 0-60 in 4.5 with that much power... but in all its still your rental car neon with a beefed up motor... i dunno about u guys but i would perfer a 350 over a neon

Hmm .... STOCK SRT-4's have been seen running 13.8's., then again so has the z. Power to weight makes a difference. There is not stage 3 yet... 315 to wheels... lol not from the factory. Last I heard mopar had a stage 1 option . Cant remember what it included. That was not a dealer sold option. Thats aftermarket. Will a srt-4 beat an evo or sti from a roll? Driver depending its up in the air. From a dig.. haha.. it will see tail lights. Personally im glad Dodge has finally done something right. A neon with a beefed up engine.. DID you forget the fact that it has the best front wheel drive handling of probably ANY fwd car with that much power. It has the suspension to go with the power buddy. Yes its still an econobox. Then again so is your everday shitbox civic. I would aslo tak e 350z over a neon lol no doubt bout that. Still the fact remains.. that poor neon is still just that .. a neon.. Congrats on the kill though s4fanatic27.

yea i was stoked that we beat it, we reved on him at about 30 mph. so we started the race from a 30 mph start. at first he was winning then we pulled on him at about fifty mph. we couoldnt believe that pulled on the Z. I will never look at the NIssan Z the same.

One word DODGE, lets face it it is still a Neon I would rather look good in my Z than drive a Neon, how many times am I going to be running a 1/4 mile with a Neon.

I would like to see them on a road course though and see if they still can hang with a Z, I doubt it.

im sure it would come very close if not be right on par with your z. Sad to hear from a turbocharged fwd 4 door shiut box that costs 20k...... vs your 27-34k dollar car. I agree though. Its still a neon.

Re: Z looses in race

guys...try this before posting...research


the 2.4....mercedes engine???made by hyundai for mitsubishi????WTF.....this is how bad rumors are started

and do please give credit where credit is due...for the money the srt4 is the fastest car on the market

is it better than the Z...NO except for the 1/4 mile the z will dominate in all the other aspects but it also costs more
