**I'm Slow** · 03-24-2005, 05:36 PM

I test drove a used SRT-4 today from a local dealer I must say ....that thing was a POS it was surging like crazy in second gear ......plus I could hardly get the thing into second gear since the synchros were so damaged.....I was not impressed at at all.......when the car was in boost at WOT....it felt much slower than my WRX....and I am dead ass

poor SRT, abused at a young age, screws it up for life, heh, naw, seriously drive one that wasnt owned by somebody who doesnt know how to drive a 5 speed

i agree. people are beating the shit out of these cars. they will become DSMs in another 7-8 years im almost SURE. if you beat on something and put it away wet, eventually you'll pay for it. drive a new one.

you know I don't get that. What exactly are you supposed to do w/ a sports car? drive it like a buick? Granted, the car should still be tip top shape down the road if it's worth its salt and wasn't driven incorrectly.

this is why you have to buy a brand new one. never buy a USED race car

I baby the shit out of my SRT. and I have no problems with it. THere's a reason that that car was at the dealership. It's fucked up.

ItsGinn · 03-26-2005, 05:22 PM

thats funny, its like one of those standard discussions, i remember when people on dsmtalk (ricer talk) used to talk about how shitty dsm transmissions were and shit like that yet on nabr, only real problems that any of us had was when the car actually made power.

I rebuilt the tranny in my dsm and drove it for 10k miles beating on it hard... but i beat it right

knowing how to drive a car while beating it, i think is the key.

Guy who baught my car had the car for 5k miles and destroyed all the syncros.

I just baught an SRT-4 and I can already tell like someone said, they are the next DSM

(btw way faster then a stock wrx)
