ACTIVE DRIVING AND HIGH QUALITY
•For 4A9-engine, the aluminium die-cast cylinder
block has been installed for weight reduction of
the vehicle.
•For 4G1-engine, turbo-charger model has been
introduced to increase output and torque,
enhancing sporty image.
•Sporty driving has been ensured by the
"GETRAG" 5-speed manual transmission (floor
shift).
•The suspension has been tuned to improve cor-
nering and stability at high speed.
Version-R>
•A strut tower bar has been adopted to improve
the body rigidity.
•Electric power steering system has been
improved and EPS-ECU has been additionally
equipped with the return control logic, resulting in
superior steering wheel return control and better
steering feel equal to or better than that for other
models with hydraulic power steering.

BRAKE BOOSTER
9-inch brake booster has been installed. The brake
booster employs a variable amplification ratio mech

anism that varies amplifications ratios so that even
small pedal force can provide great breaking force.
PARKING BRAKE
The parking brake is of a mechanical rear-wheel act-
ing type, and its operation utilises a parking brake
lever.
