1
Barely two months after New South Wales police took delivery of a small fleet of Subaru WRXs,
بعد شهرين بالكاد من تسلّم شرطة نيو ساوث ويلز أسطولاً صغيراً من سيارات Subaru WRXs،
2
Sydney's high-speed criminals have found a getaway car which will overtake them.
لقد وجد مجرمو سيدني السريعون سيارة هروب ستتجاوزهم.
3
The new preferred ram-raid weapon is Mitsubishi's 3000 GT Sports Coupe,
4
which is so fast police have been told not to bother chasing it.
5
In December of 1999, a special task force was created to combat the rise of robberies in New South Wales,
6
the oldest and most populous state in Australia.
7
were accustomed to small and nimble hot hatches being used in ram raids.
8
But criminals found a new, more powerful and even faster car to challenge authorities.
9
And it was Mitsubishi's premier sports coupe.
10
When Mitsubishi's engineers started to design the 3000 GT, they had one intention in mind.
11
To build a world beater.
12
It had active aerodynamics, four-wheeled steering, electronically controlled suspension, all-wheel drive,
13
and a twin turbocharged engine that gave it as much thrust as a Super Turbo or Skyline GTR of its era.
14
But it lacked one important piece of technology, a security system.
15
And once criminals figured it out, it began to terrorize the greater Sydney area for nights on end.
16
It was a very obscure car to Australian authorities, but to the rest of the world, it was arguably the most badass 90s Japanese car of all time.
17
This is the story of the Mitsubishi GTO, also known as the 3000 GT VR4, and also known as its drunk American cousin,
18
the Dodge Stealth RT Turbo.
19
This all started with a program by Mitsubishi Motor Company to dump absurd amounts of money into research
20
and development to combat the big giants at the time, Nissan and Toyota.
21
It was called the High Speed Research Program and this bred concept cars
22
that were supposed to be what the future should look like in Japan.
23
And they were pretty spicy.
24
The first HSR in 1987 gave birth to the dual rear
25
cam variant of the Ford G63T to be later used in the Gallant VR4
26
and also 9 different generations of Mitsubishi Lancer Evo.
27
The HSR2 in 1989 actually added two more cylinders
28
and one extra turbo and then it had a top speed of 350 kmph.
29
The engine powering it was called the 6G72.
30
The HSR2's 6G72 differed from the naturally aspirated version with the addition of oil squirters to cool the lower compression dish pistons,
31
better flowing intake and exhaust port design,
32
and two Mitsubishi Heavy Industries TD-04 turbochargers that produced a modest 0.6 bar of boost after intercooling.
33
The HSR didn't put an emphasis on this power plant, in fact you couldn't even see it.
34
Its real evolution over the first HSR was active aerodynamics.
35
It's obvious the HSR2 was never meant to be a production car, but what if you wrapped it in a very sleek,
36
grand touring, Chrysler co-inspired design and sell it to the masses?
37
Well then you get the HSX concept.
38
The HSX wasn't even a concept in the traditional sense.
39
It was the production car 99% ready to hit the road.
40
The 6G72 Turbo V6 was detuned to 300 horsepower.
41
The rear wing was redesigned and before production, the HSX name was dropped for one that would piss off the likes of Enzo Ferrari and Pontiac.
42
It was called the GTO.
43
In the United States and in Europe, it was called the 3000 GT.
44
And Dodge had their own, it was called Jack Daniels, with turbos.
45
The new all-wheel drive Stealth RT Twin Turbo.
46
Excuse me, the Dodge Stealth.
47
This technological marvel was the most advanced sports car out of Japan at the time.
48
Viscous real-time four-wheel drive and four-wheel steering similar to Hi-Kiss on the R32 Skyline GTR.
49
acceleration to 100 kilometers an hour was faster than the Honda NSX.
50
And at 80 kilometers an hour the front air dam lowers 80 millimeters eliminating turbulence under the car
51
and the rear spoiler angle is increased by 14 degrees to create negative lift which is what we know as downforce.
52
And all that technology was condensed into a sleek grand touring package that undercut its contemporaries in price.
53
The price is always an important factor.
54
For example, I like to mix 93 octane fuel
55
and E85 to make an E30 blend because my vehicle is making more boost than factory and it's cheaper than race fuel.
56
Now, 93 octane is still pretty expensive, but since I use the upside app, I can make a little cash back every time I fill up the tank.
57
No matter if it's gas, groceries, or dining out, Upside lets you earn cash back where it matters most, the things that you buy every single day.
58
Just open the app, claim an offer, pay with your card like normal, and earn cash back that's yours with no minimums or gimmicks.
59
Upside has given back $1 billion to its users.
60
And if you want to find out how much you can earn, download the free Upside app
61
and use promo code 337 speed to get an extra 25 cents back for every gallon on your first tank of gas.
62
That's an extra 25 cents back for every gallon on your first tank of gas using promo code 337 speed.
63
The GTO slash 3000 GT VR4 should have been an obvious choice if you were cross-shopping Japanese sports cars at the time.
64
Well, it had a slight little issue.
65
It was heavy, weighing in at 1720 kilograms or 3,800 pounds, which in comparison to the weight of the Skyline GT-R,
66
it was an absolute tank.
67
When pushed to its limits in the corners, the transverse V6 all-wheel drive configuration
68
showed its weakness with plenty of understeer as the weight distribution was nearly 60% over the front axle.
69
Now just to clarify, the Nissan GT-R R32 did have 60% of its weight over the front axle
70
and 40% over the rear axle.
71
But the difference here is a Tesla ETS all-wheel drive.
72
It can transfer up to 100% of the torque all the
73
way to the rear axle to give you oversteer to make it fun to drive.
74
Over its production cycle from the original Series 1 to the Series 2 and Series 3, it slowly shed those high-tech features like electronic suspension,
75
active aerodynamics, and active exhaust flaps in an effort to save weight.
76
The pop-up headlights were replaced with projector beams, and the engine was fortified with more boost and 4-bolt main caps.
77
And the price kept creeping up as well.
78
Now Mitsubishi did offer a superleggera-esque version of the GTO in Japan.
79
It was called the GTO MR. MR stood for Mitsubishi Racing.
80
The MR was lighter thanks to deleting all the tech except the all-wheel drive system,
81
and it was famously quicker than the R33 GTR in a straight line. Where is it?
82
Where is it?
83
Toe!
84
GTO!
85
The GTO MR and N1 were mere blips in the JDM world, overshadowed by its little brother, the Lancer Evolution.
86
In its last year of production in the United States, only 274 3000 GTVR4s were imported to the US.
87
In the United Kingdom, only 125 were allowed to be imported per year, and everywhere they appeared a trend began to follow.
88
They got stolen like a lot.
89
The 3000 GT has a Japanese security system which basically relies on people being honest.
90
There's certainly not a challenge to steal.
91
At the 1994 British International Motor Show two 3000 GT VR4s
92
that were on display by Mitsubishi motors were stolen from the exhibition center.
93
One of the 3000 GTs was found in a lockup garage.
94
Other would go on a high-speed chase with West Midlands police to eventually crash
95
and the thieves escaped on foot before police arrived.
96
I guarantee you somebody at Mitsubishi got fired for this.
97
You're fired.
98
These 3000 GTs from its beginning all the way till 1999 didn't They didn't have immobilizers.
99
They just had a passive security system.
100
So if you armed the security system and somebody either opened the hood, the trunk, or the doors,
101
it would alarm, but you can still break the ignition interlock and still start it and drive away.
102
Like, what is the point?
103
The NRMA, which is the largest automotive insurance company in Australia at the time,
104
gave the Mitsubishi 3000 GT security system a 7 out of 100.
105
Even common cars like the The Ford Falcons and Holden Commodores scored more than 80 out of 100,
106
which quantified how subpar Japanese car security systems really were even though they were high-level performers.
107
This exploit would become a headache for New South Wales police
108
over a two-week stretch from late November to early December of 1999,
109
where four Mitsubishi 3000 GT VR4s were stolen in Sydney's inner west.
110
Now, two months prior, New South Wales police already deployed Subaru WRXs to combat the ram raids of the time.
111
But these WRXs were full of police equipment
112
and they were only automatics to abide with the occupational safety regulations of the time.
113
So basically, you had slush box WRXs that were four
114
or five hundred pounds overweight with extra people and equipment inside going after the 3000 GT VR4.
115
You can't make this up.
116
The Mitsubishis were so fast that chases would become a real danger to the public, so pursuing officers were told not to even bother chasing them.
117
Eventually the four 3000GTs that terrorized New South Wales for two weeks just disappeared.
118
Nobody knows if they eventually were stripped of parts or ended up in a junkyard somewhere, and I did a lot of digging.
119
It was like Gotham City back in the 90s in Australia.
120
I'm just gonna say it like that.
121
The 3000 GT VR4 story doesn't stop here.
122
It actually was successful in the US market when compared to the Mark IV Super Turbo and the FDRX7, only behind the 300ZX, making them much more common
123
and decently affordable on the used market during the tuner craze of the 2000s.
124
The 6G72 was stout in the Series 2 and 3 cars
125
and could withstand 550 to 600 horsepower before needing to upgrade the rotating assembly.
126
The 2JZ was the obvious king during this era, but you were going to pay double
127
or triple just to experience it thanks to the Fast and the Furious exploding in the market.
128
But even with all the shortcomings, it was a force to be reckoned with from a dig race, since it could put all the power down.
129
Today they are just starting to crest the six figure mark for perfect example last model year cars.
130
Something the Skylines and Supras have been doing for what seems like a decade at this point.
131
But nonetheless, I don't think there's a JDM Big 3, the Supra, the Skyline, the RX-7.
132
I think there's a Fantastic Four, and the Mitsubishi that goes by many names is one of them.
133
Thank you.

ماذا ستتعلم
في هذا الفيديو، ستكتسب مهارات تحدث هامة تساعدك في تحسين لغتك الإنجليزية. بدءًا من التعرف على كيفية استخدام السيارات كوصف للتكنولوجيا، وصولًا إلى كيفية مناقشة الأحداث التاريخية. ستتعلم:
- كيفية استخدام المفردات المتعلقة بالتكنولوجيا والسرعة في المحادثات.
- كيفية التعبير عن الإحساس بالخطر والتوتر في المحادثات اليومية.
- كيفية ربط الأفكار والأحداث لجعل المحادثة أكثر سلاسة.
استمع لهذه الأصوات
استمع جيدًا إلى الصوتيات والتواصل في الحوار، ستلاحظ بعض الميزات اللغوية المفيدة مثل:
- اللغة المتصلة: تحدث المتحدث بسرعة مما يجعل الكلمات تندمج مما يسهل فهمه.
- الارتباط: كيفية ربط الكلمات ببعضها دون توقف، مما يجعل المحادثة أكثر سلاسة.
- الاختصارات: كيف يتم تقصير الكلمات في سرعة الكلام، مثل تحويل "you are" إلى "you're".
تحدث كالأصليين
لتحسين نطقك ومهاراتك في الحديث، يمكنك استخدام تقنية طريقة التظليل في الإنجليزية. إليك بعض النصائح:
- حاول تقليد إيقاع المتحدث ونبرة صوته. هذا سيساعدك في تحسين قدرتك على التحدث بشكل طبيعي.
- ركز على الإجهاد في الكلمات. على سبيل المثال، في الجملة "it was a very obscure car"، يجب أن تركز على كلمة "obscure" لإظهار الأهمية.
- قم بممارسة shadow speech عن طريق تكرار ما يقوله المتحدث مباشرة، مما يعزز قدرتك على التفكير السريع باللغة الإنجليزية.
باستخدام هذه المهارات والتقنيات، ستتمكن من تحسين مستوى حديثك ومهاراتك اللغوية بشكل عام. تذكر أن الممارسة تجعل المحادثة أكثر سلاسة، لذا لا تتردد في استخدام shadowspeaks في تمارينك اليومية.
القواعد في هذا الفيديو
أكثر التراكيب التي يستخدمها المتحدث، مع العبارات نفسها من الفيديو:
| التركيب | في الفيديو |
|---|---|
| المبني للمجهول be + اسم المفعول — التركيز على ما يحدث لا على من يفعله | have been told · was created · were accustomed |
| جمل الوصل who / which + جملة — معلومة إضافية عن شخص أو شيء | car which will · one that would · lift which is |
| المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن | have found · have been told · has given |
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
