Yes the SRT-4 is quick, especially compared to 90% of the vehicles being sold today. It's kind of spoiled me tho, I bought it while I was planning my ZE swap, and driving the mx-3 after it's nowhere near as fast :( , it just doesn't have the same kick in the a-- the turbo provides or the 250 ft lbs of torque.

Granted I haven't sprayed on the ZE yet so it should be close perhaps faster with the juice, depending on how hard i hit it.

There's things I really like about the mazda tho, it out-handle's the SRT-4 any day of the week, and I love the clutch I got in the mx-3. The SRT-4's clutch is way to mushy same goes for the suspension, of course it's all stock still....I do love the LSD tho, if you just nudge the wheel while doing a burnout it literally fires you in that direction, it's kinda scary when your not expecting it, but oh so useful on hard corners :D

I have to go Turbo on the ZE now... theres no doubt about it.

EDIT: Sorry for the thread jacking! :shock:
