No one here tried to do any photoshop on Persona??

Would love to see Persona with bodykits + sport rims

...Disc brake does make a big difference...it release heat faster, unlike spongy rear drum brake..

Pakai jerlah asal boleh jalan

Really not sure why the M Line is without rear disc brake. With the disc it will be the best choice (w/o ABS EBD etc). Maybe P1 want people to buy the H Line but why only limited stock for H-Line

they wanted to cut down the cost i guess.. even nissan latio 1.6 and 1.8 uses rear drum brakes as well...

Latio 1.8 use rear drum brake? 1.8? Are u sure?

even umw wish 2.0 also use drum brake la

Even those big trucks also use drum brake.

Erm...so nothing weird heh.

As mentioned many times, front brakes are more important because power is transfered to the front wheels, and for front wheel drive, power distribution is all on the front. Rear brakes are just to assist e-braking, that's all.

Rear brake disc performance is more significant if it was rear wheel drive or all-wheel-drive vehicle.

its a gen2,,,, hehe ok ok

I saw a persona on the road today.

Well on first sight I recognise it as a persona. Although the front is like Gen2, somehow you still recognise is a persona.

Quote of the day :

Friend complain when see persona : Proton no creativity la, Neo,Gen2 and Persona front light all look roughly the same

Reply from another friend : Err, then those BMW and Mercedez their front also look the same wat, why never complain?

*quiet*

think this way la...
wira is sedan, satria is hatchback
pesona is sedan, gen2 is hatchback

just that tis time, the launch is terbalik... gen2 hactch first then followed by sedan.

good point is that a lot of stuff are shared with gen2. i think those aftermarket eagle eyes for gen2 shud fit pesona

ya..true true, front contribute 70-90% braking...
but 10-30%(depends on car model) of braking force still apply on rear wheel when u step on the brake pedal..

In fact, most of the modern vehicle is advance now, u cannot tell the difference on normal driving what's t difference btw rear drum n rear disc!
the most significant difference...try this---> do a handbraking U-turn..90/180/360 degree ...pull the e-brake hard to lock rear wheel..easier to lock t wheel on Rear drum car..Dunno why??

for enthusiast driving n Look, i still prefer t rear disc..the brake pad on rotor clamp at the disc..
Imagine you have big rims, eg: 17" and super tiny rear drum..Not nice..

lol that guy really got pwned!

I gotta agree with you this. I seen cars with nice rims on low profile tyre then when i go to the back, i see drum, spoil the look.

Agree. Some people just want rear disc brakes so it will look good with their rims. Since the Waja, all Proton 1.6L and above cars come with rear disc brake. Too bad the M-Line don't have it.

The BL is with CD player only can it be change to a MP3 player?

Black persona looks good..

But i felt rear disc brakes on an non ABS car has an limitation that once all the 4 disc brakes were locked u are as good as dead. That why at least the rear drum brakes will be ur last defence as drum brakes wont lock in even of emergency braking and the front disc brakes were locked.
Correct me if i am wrong.

haha, yes ... disc brake looks much nicer, in fact if wanna improve braking power alone, good brake hose and good brake pad is more then enough ...
