Lancer Ralliart vs Dodge SRT-4?

[theclapp]

I am looking at buying a new car, those are my two choices. If anyone has ever compared the two, test drove the two, or just has really good reason to choose one over the other, please let me know why. Or just feel free to throw in your .02. Thanks

go for the SRT-4. the amount of money you save will be better in the long rung. you can apply that towards the SRT-4 and make it faster than the ralliart, plus, the SRT-4 is rated as a small compact I think, so insurance might be cheaper for it. dont quote me on that though, because I dont know for sure. plus, with the SRT-4, remove the baging, and people will think you just have a neon, and then you can laugh your ass off as you rip them a new one and leave them in the dust.

Yea I was wondering the same thing. I know the SRT-4 is faster, but it is cheaply made. I tested one and when i floored it the interior was all shaking and shizle. Ive decided to go with the lancer, quality seems more important. Aftermarket parts can make it just as fast as the
SRT-4 for just a little bit more. $$$

Really it can be made just as fast for a little bit more. Could you perhaps tell us how you plan to get from 162HP to the crank to 230HP to the wheels(~260 crank)

This 100HP cheap and reliable upgrade should be interesting.

Well i talked to some of the guys over at the mitsu dealer and as soon as i sell my protege they would make a deal for 17,500 vs the 21,000 for the SRT-4. Hmmmm.... that leaves you with $3500 to mod with. Ok fine... good point... I guess ill go kill myself now

That won't be near enough to get you to in the 13s with the Lancer. Also, the SRT-4 is not cheaply built.

No question, get the SRT-4!

[Speeddude123]

Yes sir. Hear that, listen to him. He is telling you what is right. Ok you can stop beating me now.... please

I'm not sure about the Lancer's engine because I drive a Nissan, but the engine under the SRT-4 is pushed to the max, anymore horses can blow it. With that in mind and for those who knows mroe about the Lancer engine, you may know if the Lancer engine can be pushed more than 240 or not. If you got the money, I think the Lancer can beat the SRT-4

[youngvr4]

who cares the srt-4 is very much faster than a lancer ralliart so add this and that and 5grand to run speeds of the srt-4, its already faster. and the srt-4 is only 2 grand more expensive than the lancer

and what the hell are you talking about "anymore horses can blow it" its been pushed way above its hp already. what in the hell are you babling about

Uninformed post of the day award.



The Srt4 engine has already been pushed upwards of 500Hp on stock internals. Herck there is even a company running and SRT4 upwards of 600HP also on stock internals at the boneville Salt Flats....and this is not for a misealy few seconds on a 1/4 mile, it for over two constant minutes under full load.

This is not to mention the factory staged upgrades.

Alright sorry about the misinfo, I apologize for it. I just heard it from some dealers.

[youngvr4]

i can apreciate a person who can admit there wrongs, respect points from me man . but for some goood advice, check up on your facts before you post them, it looks a lot better

[Neutrino]

yeah don't take it personal, but we had quite a few post of people bashing on the srt4 and it was a bit frustrating.

[Filthy Sanchez]

THese cars are both front drivers right? ........ah then never mind.

[Yellwaznboy]

Hey guys, I wasn't bashing on the SRT-4, I was just stating what I thought was true, but I was wrong so I apologize. But yeah I'll keep in mind to check up on the facts next time before I post.
