- Ultimate Guide Sin+LinKam for Inspira -
------------------------------------------------

Common FAQ
1. What is the difference between Inspira and Lancer?
It is basically the same car with different front and rear bumper. Lancer is build in Japan Mitsubishi while Inspira obviously build by proton.

2. I heard from [INSERT WHOMEVER NAME] that Inspira parts are mostly local, is that true ?
Absolutely wrong, these people do not know about manufacturing process, or they just butthurt (sorry) that Inspira is way cheaper than Lancer.
Why i said so? To build the mold for each panel cost a lot. and i mean a lot! proton are mearly selling 30 units per months (maybe slightly more), there is no logic sense to build the mold themselves and lose more money. All the Metal penal are all shipped from mitsubishi and assemble here.

3. What are the localize parts ?
mostly internal plastics, (A,B,C pillars), absorbers and springs. front and rear bumper obviously. Complex plastic molds are still from mitsubishi, example, dashboard (However the trim are from proton)

4. What about engine and transmission , i heard from [INSERT WHOMEVER NAME] its a campro
The deal between proton and mitsubishi is drive train and body was to be remain. Infact the engine ship in as fully assemble from Japan. Yes, because the number of units are low and to build engine you need to properly train the technician with all the proper tools. For instance, your engine have 4 piston, but each piston is different in size (slightly for manufacturing tolorence),

All the engines are from Mitsubishi There are :

1. 4B10 - 1.8L
2. 4B11 - 2.0L

Transmission are from Jatco (CVT) exactly same as the lancer, infact it is better than the first batch lancer which comes without the cooler.
The manual version are from aisin exactly same as the lancer manual (not available in our market)
Common Issue
1. dashboard glovebox rattling. (inherit from lancer, most fixes are DIY)
2. dashboard rattling . (inherit from lancer, GLUE it)
3. seatbelt area rattling .. also inherit from lancer, normally put some sponge inside
4. door panel interior rattling, it is cost by the lock/unlock cable hitting against the door panel - this is proton good work, they didnt insulate properly, DIY to fix.
