Well, the thing about R3 parts is that it's very obvious that it's from an R3. Any car spotted with such parts other than SR3...better watch out! :ph34r:

Yeah I have already ordered speacially design R3 baseball bats for all R3 owners....

If you see a dogy Satira with R3 parts take the bat out and WHACK Kau the fellow's car.... :ph34r: [/b][/quote]
Make it a Carbon Fibre bat!

Dudes, actually R3 parts like the gear knob, spoiler, cam cover, exhaust system, brakes can be had legally and new if you know where to get it.....

Yah but you can't get the R3 chasis. You have to suffer with standard Satria chasis if you change everything to R3 parts

Yes that's true... it may look like an SR3 but it isn't really an SR3. And I seriously doubt they will sell any of the cosmetic stuff with R3 badging to the public. The performance bits yes.

wah lau..finally, a tuned car from our local car manufacturer..pretty cool, yeah, it seems like the car got "presence"..pity it doesn't come with the carbon fibre front bonnet..it'll be around 5 kgs lighter ( idea : buy la 1 high quality carbon bonnet and fit to your R3s..lighter weight? )

i am once a sceptic to local cars ( u know lah..buttons falling off, window not sliding properly bla bla bla... ) but now, with this R3, i'm thinking twice already..

pity they didn't come out with diff - looking front bumper..should have made it look more menacing than this..

now i'm seriously thinking of buying this car ( as long as my old man approves la, since i want to borrow his bank statements.. how much ler this car left? Is the counter on proton - edar correct? ) but 1 question lingers : how to do a simple but nice sound system? Maybe an active subwoofer ( like the new Blaupunkt one, tested by NST's Sunday car pullout, fitted to their Gen2 test car? ), a touchscreen HU ( plus DVD player one ) and an amp..how?

how's the front camber? more aggresive than GTI? fuel consumption how? how's the car's feel?

anyway how long did it took for u guys to get the car after confirmed booking?

It's a standard GTi 1.8 DOHC engine, 4G93P...which is pretty much an NA Lancer GSR engine.
