Smart ForFour / Colt CZT

[44brabus]

Does anybody exactly know which parts of both models are equal?
My Mercedes dealer told me, many Colt owners buy their parts from Mercees, because they are almost have the price from those of Mitsubishi.
I am looking for a differencial, like hat from Ralliart or cusco, anyone have got tehm built in the colt?
Maybe you are interested in original Brabus wheels, 7x17, fits on Colt. I have 4 to sell.

Well, the only member that's close enough to fit a LSD onto a RColt, is tingtw. Expect him to give a feedback soonish. But if For4's using the same gearbox, then you are right about the Ralliart/Cusco LSD.

Any pics of the original brabus wheels??

[44brabus]

here they are - original pic.
they have stock finish - polished with silver painting and coating finish

Does the Ralliart Colt have ESP ?
The Forfour got it, could this be a problem in combination with LSD?

[Steve-B]

damm they are pretty cool for standard rims. Do you have a side on pic of the whole car with front and back rim showing ?
what things does the brabus come with that might work on our cars, what interior like, dash, suspension etc etc ?
might have some parts if made by merc that are better than the colt.

Yes, Ralliart Colt has both Active Stability Control & Active Traction Control. I believe CZT has them too....???

As for if its a problem in combine with a LSD.....i might let it up to tingtw to answer you as he knows about those lsd alot more than we do.

Mine ist called SMART FORFOUR BRABUS EXCLUSIVE, has full options:
Brabus ( in comp. to normal Forfour )
- Engine
- upgraded Brakes
- suspension ( think springs from Eibach, shocks from Bilstein )
- exhaust
- Brabus leather seats
- Brabus carpets and other applications ( handbrake, Shiftknob, etc.)
- very nice steering wheel

full DVD Navigation Comand ( same as in C or E class from Mercedes ) with Bluetooth interface, Light package, comfort package, glass sunroof to open, seatheating, 6 airbags, andsoon.

First owner was Smart Factory, was a VIP-car- one year old, and they told me it was the car which drove Mika Hakkinnen ( Formula 1 driver ) here in Germany. But I don´t believe it really, but maybe, who knows.
Price was 32.500 Euros.
It goes 240 km/h on the speedometer, consumption is between 6 - 28 (full speed on the "autobahn" ) liters on 100 kilometers
Here are same pics, the trade pic shows the car in front with stock rims, the rear one with optional Brabus rims.

28L/100km??? I wouldn't think a turbocharged 1.5L can drink that much?? What's the highest speed achieveable by the Brabus 44?

So, you bought your brabus 44 with 32.5k euro??? That's almost the price range of a Mitsubishi Evo 9...... In australia, a normal 44 would cost around 25K AUD and a Brabus is easily double of that money. Envy you :D Its such a high class performance hatch.

By the way, the interior dash looks very good....although the seats are abit weak :p I believe a CZT's seat can hold a person better than that one :p

[44brabus]

32,5 K Euros was newprice, I got it for 18 k Euros.
The 28 liters were at night at full speed ( 240 on the speedo ) on the highway, normal is 8-9 liters.
Yes, the seats are definitely on the confortable side, Recaros would be better choice.
But i like it, looking into the faces of the Audi, Merc and BMW drivers, when passing them on the highway.
Within all the big cars here, the 44 Brabus is a kind of a surprising bomb.
And understatement and tolerance because of the unknown power in times of CO2 and poluton discussion here.

Yes, is amazing how this modern engine uses gasoline. My Colt can drink as less as 4.8 L/100Km, only short distance, very boring!

Normal driving in about a month was very low: Just 7.3 L/100Km.

But.... Someone drove 100Km and needed 26 Liters !!!!, yes, 26.4 L/100Km in a real 100Km trip. We can divide by 5 gas use depending on throttle and type of road. Have to say that trip was from sea level to 500 m high and speed was certainly not slow, but if racing could had gone much faster!

I imagine that over 40 liters/100 is not impossible on curvy roads, uphill, braking hard with a super-fast driving, like when racing a rally.

In 2004, the Colt Plus was launched in Japan. This was essentially a longer version of the standard Colt. In the same year the Colt was also launched in Europe, with models ranging from 1.1 MPI, 1.3 MPI, 1.5 MPI and 1.5T in petrol. The perfomance specification 1.5T was based on the 4G15 block, with a Turbo and Intercooler to aid power (147 hp @ 6000RPM / 155 lb.ft @ 3500RPM). MIVEC variable valve timing was also used to increase the output, upping the power dramatically from the 109 hp 1.5 MPI. The same performance engine was also used to power the latter released CZC cabrio model Colt (2005), with the more petrol-friendly 1.5 MPI also being made available.

The Smart forfour also shared the '03 specification chassis, with Brabus releasing a performance version of the forfour in '04 using the same engine as used in the 2004 European cz-T, but squeezing 30 extra HP out of the same 4G15.
