bro, i suggest u start from n/a since ur budget is limited, of course depent wat car u wan, but 10k no much choice, just go for our "good" national car lo... but i suggest with Mitsubishi engine but not proton, afraid will getting more problem with those engine like mine, i m a newbie too but direct going into powerful turbo way(having a powerful mivec turbo before), but realize that it eat more money then n/a so going back to the basic n/a way

i really miss the tuebo power but wat can do? reality is cruel, no money no car mod

one good suggestion for u ,proton wira with 4g91, good fuel consumption and yet more powerful then stock, learn the basic mod 1st and then got budget and experience u can BOT and play turbo lo, just remember to BOT and tune it right

.... that is just my sense
