[QUOTE="riggy, post: 201141, member: 5465"] actually prozac, you could have actually opted for the putra. I am hearing that the putra is actually the most stable among the wira, putra satria series of cars. Its due to the extra rigidity owing to the 2door + boot (compared to 2 extra doors in the wira and compared to the large hole .ie tailgate opening in the satrias) The boot also helps with high speed stability. You'd be able to see satrias going down the straight at full throttle wobbling slightly while the wiras and putras seem more planted. Hatchbacks have this inherent problem with the air not going around the end too smoothly. And sometimes, having a tail seems to enable a driver to judge better when its gonna swing out. The proton races (not the PROTON motorsport ones but the usual ones) at pasir gudang is an even better example. Do you know that you're allowed to run a ported head for the GTIs but not for the 1.8wira and putra? the reson being if with the same setup, the putras and wiras will beat the living heck out of the GTIs due to superior handling. Somehow, the organisers want the field to 'recognise' the 'superiority of the GTI (but its down to the extra power). whereas, its otherwise. I think that proton should have come up with a putra GTI R3. it has a coupe styled body, I think image wise, this is much better. Or they themselves believe too much in the 'GTI' moniker that it has to be on a hatchback. (or actually, they had tons of satria bodyshells lying around to be made compared to the putra in 1999.)

6pots Brembo with bad results.
I just recently upgraded my BBK.
It's Brembo 6pots from used Porsche installed on to a VW Jetta.
The BBK comes with SSBH that good enough already.
The looks on it is just great but I'm not really satisfied with it...
