hahaha. torque wise, it's plentiful. but power wise at the top end, not much. need 5th gear. hahahaLet me rephrase, power loss in the torque converter........lol

Agreed. Torque converter would consume much of the torque. Anyhow, quite sure I’ll be satisfied with the power delivery. The current autobox should strike a balance for daily drive and occasional spirited driving.Let me rephrase, power loss in the torque converter........lol
Top speed wont be too much of a factor for me i guess. It’s unlikely that I can drive above 180 most of the time anyway. IMO, i dont think it’s considerably safe/ideal to drive above 180 at malaysia roads with a wira chassis c97 despite that upgrades such as (1) autofoam done, (2) complete chassis bars, (3) bc racing v1 threaded coilovers, (4) enkei tuning rims with ps4 rubber, (5) stiff rings, and (6) reviving all suspension bushings *this is some car handling upgrades I’ve done*hahaha. torque wise, it's plentiful. but power wise at the top end, not much. need 5th gear. hahaha
LOL. My highway cruising speed is 140kmh. I think it mostly depends on the driver.Top speed wont be too much of a factor for me i guess.

Drive gentle, be gentle. Engine old jor. I’m getting old too. A little excitement when wanted is good enough hahahah
To me it all depends on the engine and chassis. We tend to find the 'sweet spot' where the engine felt effortless (most of the time in peak torque rpm range) and the noise is not bleeding our ears and the car is not all over the place.LOL. My highway cruising speed is 140kmh. I think it mostly depends on the driver.
Owning my VR for like 19 years, I did until speed cut three times only. First time when engine newly transplanted, was wondering why car lost power.....lol Second time actual test going to airport customs and then on the way back, that time LCCT not open yet, that road not much people use. My ex colleague even gave me a speed cut defender which I did not install......hahhahaLOL. My highway cruising speed is 140kmh. I think it mostly depends on the driver.
my peak torque is at 4600rpm and my peak power is 6000 rpm (damn ridiculous for an autobox). so yeah, most of the time i will maintain driving at peak torque between 4000-4600 rpm. u always know where the sweet spot is when cruising.To me it all depends on the engine and chassis.

However some just tend to mash the pedal regardless what vehicle they drive.
i still havent reach 240kmh on my stock speedometer. hahahahahaOwning my VR for like 19 years, I did until speed cut three times only.

Is 7.7kg consider light for 16 inch rims? HmmmmJust got my rims today Enkei Tuning SC33 16’ for rm1780. Four piece of rubber 205/50/16 ps4 at 1550 incl steel air cap, alignment, etc.
Cant wait!
now you are the "answer" for my own question.Just got my rims today Enkei Tuning SC33 16’ for rm1780. Four piece of rubber 205/50/16 ps4 at 1550 incl steel air cap, alignment, etc.

C97 chassis here too. No problem as long you gain the speed gradually and not launching from every stop. I have all your setup except stiff ring and foaming.Top speed wont be too much of a factor for me i guess. It’s unlikely that I can drive above 180 most of the time anyway.

Consider OK since u have snail.Is 7.7kg consider light for 16 inch rims? Hmmmm
Peak torque nicer to drive....lolmy peak torque is at 4600rpm and my peak power is 6000 rpm (damn ridiculous for an autobox). so yeah, most of the time i will maintain driving at peak torque between 4000-4600 rpm. u always know where the sweet spot is when cruising.

Told you before, come down change, then we can go makan some more......lolnow you are the "answer" for my own question.
PS4 quite cheap compare in Penang. Here 205/50/16 cost rm430/pcs.
KL price cheaper actually. Make me think go KL for rubber. lol...
You should try autofoaming. Felt miles apart for the chassis. Stiff ring, helps abit but not too distinctive imo. I’ll probably be cruising around 130-150 since the meaty torque band is between 3 to 4.5k rpm.C97 chassis here too. No problem as long you gain the speed gradually and not launching from every stop. I have all your setup except stiff ring and foaming.
I drive manual gb lah btw. Car can hit 180 occasionally. Since is my daily drive, no way i going to push it everyday.
