when you want to put your car on my GTECH and get some real figures. i would like to know for sure what the light wieght SR3 can do. As for Top speed, well my waja does 210kph so those guys in car 6,8 and 9 better make sure their R3 does 211kph and more. If not, move over, standard 1.6cc single cam, one of a few hundred thousand build, with no motorsport touch or tinkering will be passing their ass. hehehehe… I love my waja more than my GTi, especially on christmas night when I whacked a Nissan GTR on a bend at the ampang elevated highway. Thats another story though.

When you want to test your car with the Gtech let me know. Drop me a mail and we can hook up one weekend (not this as I am took tied up with other stuff) at bangsar.

cheers man

eric

Thanks for posting. I do like the Gen.2 I have to say. But like every other model in their stable, they need to sort out the quality issues that plague the handsome car. Like the plastics. And electricals.

Oh btw, keep your eyes peeled for an R3 version of the Gen.2 at the end of the year. Lightweight, 500 units exclusive, highly tuned Campro, 17″ wheels, carbon fibre bits. :) In other words, Yums!

Eric,

Yes, we shall make a date to test the GTech Pro. Apparently a few GTi owners have clocked sub-7 seconds in stock trim. I question the accuracy of the device now, but still would like to try it out.

Cheers guys!

I am glad to find another car lover! I am also changing to a new car. Proton Gen2. Whilst i wish i can have a SR3, family and financial commitments overruled.heh.

Having used a satria before, I can say you are right about the powerwindow. The best way is to buy a lubricant for it. I used to buy them at brothers at about rm2-3 ringgit previously.Forgot the name. It was about 4 years back.

Anyway, nice to have visited your blog. Be sure that i will come back! :)
