proton satria is basically a mirage.
with a bit of suspension work and a chip they will corner like they are on rails and go accelerate pretty hard, but i reckon the FTO would win.
(mate had one... proton not fto, but unfortunately he sold his before i bought my fto

)

* COULD * be a good run, won't beat it unless you have a sh*tty launch

They run Mitsi engines (that's why it's very easy to transplant early GSR/VR4/Evo engines into them (gearbox on opposite side)

They got rave reviews when released, and Hot 4's magazine went all <fuckin> with them, that was enough to put me off heh

Seriously though, they can be made to handle cos they have a very good chassis

BTW, his engine SHOULD be a 4G93, not 100% sure though. Your MIVEC (cant remember if you have one of them) will eat it, non-MIVEC GR may have issues

Lol not you harry. She is referring to dryheart. He is on his L's... Fucks me why he is talking about drag racing

And yea, I'm very intrigued about this manual/tiptronic situation...

Buy Satria if you plan to change to an evo plant. Otherwise, its really a no brainer to choose the FTO, and im referring to MIVEC version only.

the proton should win. unless you have afew mods
when i had my 9runs at wsid, my mates proton was running 16.1-16.5's and his got a totally stock proton, fairly close to my fto gpvr but i beat him 3/3

do you think before you type? because it doesn't seem like it..

and obviously your mates don't know sh*t about cars if they judge its performance by how many L's the engine is.. n00bs
