New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

**mazdamazda** · August 13th, 2007 05:34 PM

Kumander didn't like the low front seats of the Strada... she said that it might be uncomfortable during long (or even our daily) trips.

Although there is enough legroom when you stretch out, the normal sitting position (with your legs & thighs adjacent) is kind of awkward and reminds me of the jump seats of old AUVs.

I guess that killed my dream of a Strada 3.2L 4x4.

Sorry sa pics umuusok kase yung Mitsu na Area...

Is this different from the 2.5 version? (3.2L tires)

Speedlab
871 Quezon Ave. Quezon City
Tel. 3764648 / 3764651

They carry the brand UniChip. 20 to 25% gain in Hp they claim. Installation will only take less than 10 min. No cutting of wires simply tapping it to the ECU, it comes with a harness so its basically plug and play. Saw the actual thing, its quite big. I inquired two months ago it was around 50K, a bit too expensive so if anybody knows other shops who are also selling chip upgrades, kindly post thanks! Also seriously considering..

Boosted, let me know if you decide to have a go with it.

Yep, 3.2L have wider tires.. 265 as to the 245 of the 2.5L. It also comes with LSD.

Now this is my dream Strada! Black 3.2L 4M41.

I saw a black 4x4 Strada at Rizal Ave. Ext. (Grace Park Area) filling up at Shell.

The Strada aims for a carlike seating position. That's why the seats are low in contrast to your typical truck or truck-based SUV where you feel like you are sitting on a dining room chair.

I like the sitting on a dining room chair better.

yep, me too... I dont like driving low, like in a car.... Hope they could offer a feature similar to the Captiva. You can adjust the height of the front seats.
