Yes you will lose G-Force feeling but due to the bodyweight you will feel more stable on highway. Of course you need to change PV6 stock absorber.

dis case is like comparing satria evo with wira evo also..hehehehe. samething happen when i'm driving wira evo few years back.

power to weight ratio is the most common issue..but with multi-link suspension on perdana, u will feel more comfort then driving wira..dats the fact. perdana also already equiped with front n rear anti-roll. just change to adjustable..setel! will give more on stability n rigidity.

for me the choice between the 2 depends on which stage in life ure in hehe

u want more comfort now, better noise insulation, need bigger car etc. etc. then yea y not go for the perdana

if u still wanna rempit, couldnt care less about the above, then no point going from a 980kg -1336 kg car (curb weight from wiki), 1/3rd in weight increase is no joke

braking/nimbleness/accelerating etc. etc. will be 'dampened' for sure

of course u can upgrade the perdana's handling/braking etc. etc. to compensate, but imagine what u can come up with if u put that same amount of money into ur wira lol

Just my 2 sen

Cheers!

thanks for the comments guys...my fren just told me that using 16 inch wheels might help to for the feel of the gforce...is it true?i cannot test my fren car with evo engine inside as his car now on the repair for overheated...

Trust me when you ride Perdana you never want to use 16" rim. Yes it help a bit.

well. ppl only change down to 16" if wanna go sprint test.
if wira evo beat perdana evo, not strange la.
everyone also know the fact that perdana is heavier.

but if u think u wanna get somemore comfort, get perdana.
u lose a little g-force but get comfort.
alaa.. u are not always wanna go rempit rite...

I personally think perdana will have a better stability, as wira's chassis is too light to handle that much of horsepower & torque by evo engine.. once pick up, the car will seems to loss a bit traction compared to perdana.. this is what i felt driving my own perdana evo.. :)

Hey people,

I did some research on modifying cams-just some questions as this cannot be found in websites.

1. If we do change our camshafts to Racing or Hi cam, will it make the idling moody? This will of course encourage high FC right?

2. If we use semi racing instead of racing will the idling be more stable instead of going up and down?

3. I read that changing the camshafts only improves mid torque(sometimes) and high torque(most of the time) I wonder what can I do to...
