They weigh in at around 1100kg's

And apparently the Satria GTi runs the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO Engine... hrmm Interesting.

Can you say 4G63 joel? :)

If I'm not mistaken the Proton in question is powered by Mitsubishi's finest, the 2.0L turbo engine as found in the EVO Lancer range & the Aussie VR4 Galant. Or I could be totally wrong?

RevsPerMin,

The lil' Proton looks really nice, inside & out (especially in the eng' bay!) You'll have to bring it out on a cruise.

Edit: Looks like you just beat me to it Joel :D The 4G93 is the 1.8L turbo as found in the Aussie Lancer GSR (later model) The 4G63 is the big gun of the 2! RevsPerMin's Proton is running the latter (& then some!)

hrmm Well..

If i ever happen to pull up next to one I wont be laughing at the Proton I tell you.

Instead I will be having that nervous feeling in your stomach that makes you pulse speed up a little thinking.. damn.. this bastard is going to nail me.. :)

Yep Can't beat a 32,33,34 GTR sitting there with its pumped guards, wide tyres and mean stance. :)

I've always thought those Proton's were basically a Hyundai type car.

Definately a sleeper. Give Gen III Commodores a fright.

Guest sir_GTR

Umm Aaron, the GTR belongs to your bro? :)

Meet my friends; in custumes, we have the two Matts (bugalugs the Spidey of course), Joel's in the back ground while infront is the all beautiful Driftspec (white undies) :love: Gunson and Jaffa were in ballet class next door (not in video) :lol:

Thought I'd put out an invite to some friends:

The Aussie LS1(Commodore) Forum lads.

They have a cruise organised for the 30th too! (They meet on West Tce @ Shell) So why not join together? They're a great bunch of blokes, one of my bosses is amongst them :)

There are a few of these boys with some big power! (265rwkw GTS) so it'll be a good night hopefully.

Oh yeah, "JAFFA" has cruised with these guys before too!

John (Munro), if you're reading this, how about bringing the R33 out for a play? Please!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :uh-huh: Failing that the 34 will do fine mate.

I wont be there.. :)

Car is off the road until I can get a new Tensioner.. (Monday)

I Replaced Cam Belt now the damn tension is as loud as hell.

I think the belt is slightly to tight also which probably isn't helping at all.

:D

    • @Dose Pipe Sutututu I would argue that >300rwkW inevitably comes only with a raised boost threshold that makes it more likely to get beaten by the family SUV with a 95 speed auto transmission and TD torque. Ditto the traction problems when it finally does come on boost. I used to love my stock turbo. A little flex of the ankle and it made a sweet little whistle and you had torque immediately. It wasn't fast fast, but it was more likely to win the "squirt to make the gap" type races that actually matter for a street car. I think >300 rwkW requires more capacity than an RB25 can offer (again, for street driving). I have enough experience with driving 2JZs in that space to know that they are much easier to pedal around in than a 25. I keep thinking Greg did the right thing putting a V8 is his car. I can't see myself not having a turbo - but I'd really like a big engine torque curve.
    • This is kinda how I see it also. Could drill down then into sub tags. 
    • Let's be honest here @GTSBoy 250kW in a GTS-t would easily get walked by my a family SUV these days. 300kW is the sweet spot, fast enough to keep up with the modern German cars (not from a stand still), fun enough and the motor still can be stock/unopened. Realistically, 400kW is a good number. It's enough to give you cold sweats, still be very street able in terms of the power band (provided you're not an idiot and go single scroll and delete VCT) and only needs a very basic rebuild (or stock if you have a NEO motor). Anything more, it starts to be stupid.
    • Deals off now apparently https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-13/honda-and-nissan-say-merger-talks-called-off/104934438 Hopefully Nissan closes up soon and the family X-Trail becomes a classic too!
    • The west where I live is swarming with birds, not wrong they are bloody loud. In the meantime, do a DIY killswitch - $5 worth of things from jaycar, easy as too. The west is copping it with car theft lately, especially the big shopping centres.
