    My 4WD has drums in the rear... if the information earlier in this thread is correct then the US LX model and Canadian GT model have rear discs. Is this incorrect?

      Only the USDM LX and the CDN GT have rear discs, the USDM 4WD is just a DX with 4WD

        the US spec LX has the "hard suspension"... just like the GT... ask anyone who has seen the passenger door jam sticker and they will tell you that... the US LX has exactly the same engine, transmission, brakes, AND suspension as the GT... and the US LX and GT has the same brakes as the 4WD as well as the GT-X..... the GT has the same bumpers as the OTHER 1st gens, what's different is the red pinstriping decal added onto it... EXACT same part number... ONLY the door moldings are different... whoopty... the 93 "GT" is just a special edition with the different headlights and seat trim... again, who cares.... the interior? different seats, that's nice... that's the only thing really worth mentioning.... the seat belts? the canadian DX/SE/LX didn't have them? who cares whether the car came with AC or not

        NONE of the **** that's different between the GT/canadian cars versus the US LX has ANY ****ing thing to do with what the car REALLY is and it's performance.... drive both cars back to back, and they perform the same... the might not FEEL the same to the driver/passengers, but who gives a ****..... get rid of all that luxury bull**** and the eye candy, and it's the same ****ing car.... NONE of that **** is important

        where did I say no cars in canada had automatic seat belts? were you refering to this post? English > you if that is the case.... I'm not going to even waste my time telling you where you failed SEE SIG


        now stfu, people are tired of your superiority complex bull****

        Listen up bitch. Just because I'm right about something that makes you look inept for once, you have to fly off the handle and whine like a 9 year old. I never once attacked you directly, but you get all rattled and bent out of shape because I recognized that GTs ARE special cars. Get over it man, YOU ARE the one with the superiority complex...all actin like you're the only one who knows anything about Protegés.

        I stand by the fact that there is MUCH more difference between the Canadian GT and the US LX than the Japanese GT. GTs were built in Japan for Canada only. Get over it.

          The USDM LX and the Canadian GT are more alike then the USDM LX and DX are... why is this such a big deal? The USDM LX and the CDN GT are pretty much the same car... same motor, tranny, suspension, brakes, etc.... can anybody argue with that logic?

            WTF? Are you 100% sure about this???? This shouldn't be. 4WD have 4 wheel disc.

              Hardly. The 4WD is a whole other beast. It does have DX-like options though. (Or lack thereof.)

                Your post is so vague it's true.

                It's when people start getting into things more in-depth and spouting mis-information...that's when it's a problem.

                  Hummm, you should read the spec sheet that I posted , power is not the same and I'm pretty positive the Canadian GT did not have ABS

                  Might have been doing some selective reading there

                    Where did you post this spec sheet?

                    You are correct, GT doesn't have ABS.

                    What's this about power ratings?

                        That was a nice document.

                        However, it has no bearing on the CDN GT or any North American Protege for that matter.

                        Where did you get it?
