O.O"....ur shopping list so loooooong.... but izzit worth to renew a 10yrs+ proton car like tis? very exp neh... >.< although it will bcome as good as new....but it still an old car wo.... if really upgrade like tis... next time wanna sell it very rugi wo.... btw...i'm still a student...no money for such upgrade....haha...
Well , to be honest I disagreed with you . Why need to change to a newer ride when the car is still in tip top condition & beside that , Wira over 10yrs old ain't got any good trade in value ,lioa . It's better to treat it as a toy car ,....mod here & there . That's where the fun begin. Get the all mods correct & you'll definetly get the kick out of it . Belum rasa belum tahu , sudah rasa lagi mau . If can afford get another new ride but yet still keep the Wira for play play .
PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! IT'LL GET YOU THE BEST WHEN TIME IS RIGHT AND SO WILL BE THE PRICE

Wira 1.5M's claimed top speed is 172kmh, but i have done 180kmh on my 175/70R13 tyres before.
Wira 1.5 & 1.6 have different engine setup, and 1.6 have a better stable system than 1.5, as can see from the ARB. Wira 1.5 does not have rear ARB, cornering still lose out to 1.6. If I am not wrong, Wira 1.6 front ARB is slightly bigger by 1mm than the 1.5 one.
Well, I can add: A well maintained 1.5 Wira can smoke a 1.3 Myvi when going through truck road. Moreover Myvi CG is higher than Wira, so they also dare not to run fast too....
Under the skin, the Wira 1.5 and 1.6 are vastly different. Suspension, brakes, drivetrain and all.

totally correct....
the spring rate and stock absorber damping force also a bit different....
about handling...pls check sagged spring and leaking absorber....
about speed performance...myvi 1.3 acceleration was quite good to compare with wira/satria 1.6 autobox.....
but if u maintain the engine and GB well..replace atf oil on time,then surely after 165km/h would smoke myvi easily...(*because that was the limit of stock myvi speed)

true... i owned myvi before... on straight ok lar 160+-km/h... but in bumpy / twisty road don't even think of it to full speed... exit hiway i only dare around 60km/h MAX SPEED lol.... rasa macam nak terbalik... may be bcoz high seat position... dunno about others....
