What's your Satsuma like, and how do you drive it?

[DieselMerc]

What the title says. What did you make of your Satsuma? What upgrades did you do to it? How many kms do you have on the odometer? And how do you drive it? Do you push it to the limits, or do you drive like a grandma? I'm really curious.

I'll start: my Satsuma is basically a hybrid of stock, GT and custom. The engine isn't far from stock - only upgrades are the twin carburetors and racing radiator. Stock AFR tune, stock valve clearance, advanced spark timing, longest diff ratio. It actually has good fuel economy and it's fast enough to not be slow. On the outside, it has the Pohjanmaa paintjob, foglights, front spoiler, rear ducktail spoiler, and louvers. Wheels are the stock steelies, with standart tires and hubcaps. Last but not least, it has the CD player and the subwoofers. It currently has 5230km on the clock. I love it.

And I try to drive realistically. I never push it, I upshift before 5000rpm, and go the speed limit on the highway. But I go 80-90 km/h on the dirt roads. Also I never crash.

i go bit crazy with my car. currently it has around 500 km on clock or some value close to that and i drive it pretty heavly. car got CD Player and subwoofer and is also painted black with red spoilers. for the engine it is almost stock GT engine except for the racing clutch disc thing(i forgot the name lol) and has aftermarket exhaust. the tires are stock tho for time being. i also go over the limit on highways (like 160+ km/h) but will always slow down before sharp turn and before police checkpoint, i also like to upshift at 6500rpm. on dirt roads however, i like to keep the car's rpm between 3000 and 4000 and also i often scratch/crash my car on dirt road. rn i am planning to tune the gear ration and to got for racing carburetor with nitro for dragracing

I drive it like a grandma lol, just to the sewage plant and to get groceries. It's light blue and has a yellow right fender. It's bone stock. I have about 300km on the odometer.

Mostly stock except twin carbs, racing rad, rally suspension, AFR gauge and “extra gauges”. Been switching between rally tires and normal cheapie street tires, but mainly stick with rally and keep the streets for when I need inspection. Though I still haven’t attempted the rally. I’m honestly kind of scared haha. I push my car here and there but I’m always too worried about wrecking it and spending tons of time and $ to fix it.

Well I play with mods so;
4x4, its a mod, I use it for traction.
GT Turbocharger, part of Donnatechs turbo mods.
ECU(Sometimes), part of Donnatechs ECU mod.
Dual Carb, I don't really like the race carb.
Racing Radiator, it needs coolness.
I actually use the stock flywheel, I don't like how the clutch behaves without it.
I'll say it drives well, and its really fast, I often hit 200+ kmh but I normally don't because it feels like I'll die.

I go 100-120 KMH on dirt roads. It has twin carbs, racing exhaust, CD player, no subwoofers. Front spoiler and small bootlid spoiler, both black. Rusty silver paintjob, GT rims with stock tires. Pre-facelift mod combined with it. Racing radiator as well, RPM gauge. Antennas for the nice look. Only spent about 20 hours in the save so probably not a lot of KMS. I don't know how to link a screenshot but its on my profile, the most recent screenshot.

Mine is basically similiar in terms of parts. That would be twin carb with racing radiator. It's factory pure white with rust. I don't like wooden interior so you won't find gt parts including others except gt grille. Depends on the mood but i keep that because in my opinion it looks better. No body kit or fiberglass hood because it's ugly. I only trust my devil tune so i do that myself. With shortest gear ratio which fulfills my requirements. Carpet and mats must be there so i only keep rollcage when i need it for rally, stock seats are the way. Tires are either standard or gobras but i tend to go with gobras as they have better drifting grip. Wheels are aftermarket though because i need negative offset there. CD player with subwoofers is also a must have because driving is boring without a good music.

i tend to a more road legal whilist keeping performance high on the list, racing radiator, twin carbs and gommer gobra tires with maximum speed gear ratio, and absolutely blastin bill wurtz music whilist crashing into a gigantic beer truck in the middle of a storm

i'm waiting for my upgrades (shop catalogue in the garage ) and my car is fully stock but when i'm on the freeway i go full throtle

Ah I forgot to mention I had the center console GT and GT steering wheel. I still don't have the subwoofers until I can find a way to bypass that distortion filter.

I like, driving in dirt roads like Penna 60-70 km/h and in the hgway 100-130 km/h, and yeah, I like the trim in the car with the sport steering wheel, GT Console, CD player + Subwofers , with the rims that cost 1895 mk and the Gommer Gobra tires, RPM cauge, Twin Carb with the exhaust sistem stock, only it haves the Racing Flywheel, racing radiator, the vented hood, the bumpers mod from "ejonafres" and for last the GT paint job.

It was completely stock, but recently I have installed the double carb along with stock muffler delete and racing radiator. Felt that much better that I have ordered and installed racing pipe & muffler and steel headers, today I still have to get the engine out and install that racing flywheel.

other than that its stock rims with stock tires, I'm going for Satsuma GT before Rally Satsuma so I have the GT rims ready with gommer cobra, soon I will take the car to fleetari to paint it

You can just take off the inspection cover, drive gear and the clutch assembly to get access to the flywheel. You don't need to remove the gearbox.

a pure stock engine, with an upgraded radiator and basic wheels. love how the basic car looks

Yes thats what I tought but after I unbolted the old flywheel it doesnt want to come out, but yesterday night in my bed I remembered that there might be a last bolt at the very center so im trying that right now!

EDIT : So there wasn't any center bolt but I found the right place to look to get it out thanks!
