    This is your first car???? No wonder all of us get a bad rep. Please, do us a favor, and roll the bitch like we are all waiting for. That way I can buy the parts off of it really cheap like the Jew I am, and then I won't have to worry about yet ANOTHER fuck head with an SRT-4....

    See??? Even you agree

    He's 19, and this is his first car??? I have a feeling his right foot will get a little heavy at times, and he'll go into a turn at Mach Jesus and the shitty suspension on the car to begin with will cause it to "Wag" the rear end, thus he will over-correct, and roll the car. Although the wing will probably survive....

    Sounds like more trouble then its worth for a first car. Sell it to my brother for the cheap and let him worry about all those nasty issues.

    well first of all just because i'm young doesnt mean i can't drive a car. my uncle has a 800hp+ Supra and if i drove that no problem i'm pretty sure i'm capable of driving a little srt4. i was just wondering if there were some people who have srt's and know how to work on them who aren't assholes and can give advice on how to fix the problems. not rant about stupid shit when they know nothing about me. and i'm not selling my car. i'll get my car fixed one way or the other with or without help.

    Try SRTforums.com and go to the Off-Topic area and tell them what you said here. They'll be more than glad to help.

    Just bring it by my shop and ill take care of you. I know srt-4 like the back of my hand. ive done several swaps/builds for customers.

    here are some pictures of a str4 that came in on a tow truck cause the customer thought his throw out bearing was bad.

    lmfao... yea buddy deff not the throwout bearing lol






    we ended up convincing the customer to do :

    new oil pump
    new water pump
    new rear main
    new timing belt
    new tensioner
    oil pan gasket
    new head gasket
    new act clutch kit
    new act flywheel


    damn i love income tax time lol
