[shr0olvl]

Can someone give me the specs of the 2003 and 2004 SRT4, I want to know what is the difference and which one is faster, thanks !

2003
215 bhp @ 5200 rpm
245 lb-ft @ 3200 rpm
Michelin Pilot Sport tires
No LSD

2004
230 bhp @ 5300 rpm
250 lb-ft @ 2200-4400 rpm
BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDW tires
Limited slip diff is standard; sunroof is optional

Both should top out at 148 mph, being electronically limited. Although C&D's '03 hit 153 mph (drag limited).

Performance times are essentially the same, and with '03 SRT-4 horsepower being vastly underrated, it appears there's not a lot between them. Figures are:

'03
C&D
0-60: 5.6
0-100: 13.8
0-130: 26.2
1/4 mile: 14.2 @ 102 mph
70-0: 165'
Skidpad: 0.84g

R&T
0-60: 5.6
0-100: 13.9
1/4 mile: 14.2 @ 101.5
60-0: 122'
Skidpad: 0.84g
700-ft Slalom: 64.8

Motor Trend
0-60: 5.4
1/4 mile: 13.9 @ 101.9
60-0: 112'
Skidpad: 0.86g
600-ft Slalom: 66.6


'04
C&D*
0-60: 5.3
0-100: 13.4
0-130: 24.8
1/4 mile: 13.9 @ 103
70-0: 169'
Skidpad: 0.86g

R&T**
0-60: 5.7
1/4 mile: 14.3 @ 100.9
60-0: 120;
Skidpad: 0.83g
Slalom: 64.9

MT
0-60: 5.5
1/4 mile: 13.99 @ 102.72
60-0: 112'
Skidpad: 0.85g
Slalom: 68.3


*C&D's '04 was 101 lbs heavier than their '03; partly due to the LSD and the sunroof in the '04.

**R&T's '04 was tested out at the high desert track in Willow Springs; unlike the others, they don't compensate for conditions.

Can you get the 2003 or 2004 in automatic, or can you just only get them in mannual

[F1_Master]

Don't know. All I know is that R&T perferred the '04 SRT4 over my car. (Ok, not my car, but the same model I own)
THey liked it better than the Ion Redline.

[Ferrari Tifosi]

The big differences are basically the adding of a limited slip differential and a new hp rating which fits what the engine has been producing all along.

[shr0olvl]

Ok, i got the info i need, but id like to know if you cud get it in automatic ?

[Coventrysucks]

Did you considered looking at the Dodge website?
It would appear that the only transmission is a 5 speed manual.
