R3-Satria (gti)

[handsome_lala]

prozac, Great Review!!

"My only qualm is that the direction of the steering wheel can change suddenly over certain bumps, making you hold on to it for dear life at speeds in excess of 150km/h (on Malaysian roads, anyway)" quote from prozac

haha thats why I say there are pro and cons of great feedback from the steering :rolleyes:


Looking forward to meeting you guys on thursday night TTDI pasar....

 

[handsome_lala]

This quote cought my attention!!

"But please give your loved ones earplugs for Xmas. Lest they damage their hearing as your high-pitched Mintex pads annouces your arrival" (thumbs up)

Hahaha never thought of it this way..... instead of ah beng exhaust, R3 has squelling brakess to announce its arrival !!! :D LOL

 

[ninja_iga]

Malay dude driving, REAL deal, not a wanna-be

"But please give your loved ones earplugs for Xmas. Lest they damage their hearing as your high-pitched Mintex pads annouces your arrival"

Hahaha.. the bane of race pads/brakes.. If you ever do Penang I'll let you hear my Wilwoods squeal.. Definitely gives the WRC experience ;)

 

[Crash]

Haha. Yes that's true. Don't want to be known as the squealer though.

IIsaw, what is your take on fitting in a two-pot for the SR3?

 

[bangau]

I only got to drive it for a few hours. I agree that the brakes are good, brake feel is in fact great. I hope they will allow me to drive one in the track.

 

[faisal]

Bangau,

Buy one and you can drive it all you want .. heh heh.

 

[bangau]

I shall refrain myself from answering that question. hahaha. No la..not in the market for a hot hatch. But for serious drivers, they should seriously consider the R3.

What happened? Let's have a look at your car at the TT later.

 

[bangau]

I am sure they can replace that under warranty claims.

 

[handsome_lala]

Guys,

Macan nak hujan over here in TTDI...We need a backup plan if it really rains over here..... :unsure:

Any Ideas??

[prozac]

Backup plan:

We still TT in TTDI, but at Restoran Ali Baba (just down the road past Roti John). There's a lot of parking there.

 

[handsome_lala]

great suggestion....

Back up Plan: Ali Baba
Location: Behind Menara IBM
Time : 9pm

What FR on the mamak session yesterday?
Who turn up? Who FFK?

 

[racingcarrera]

I just read Prozac’s review on the car. Have to comment that it was very well written.
Handsome_lala, kindly let me test drive your R3 so that I can affirm prozac’s review.

 

[Crash]
