No, seriously, my foot is very light.. tongue.gif
I only tap enuf amount of petrol to get my car moving, and constantly i try to get the rpm between 1.5-2.5k at speeds of 40-80.. Very rarely I floor the accelerator...Living in penang mar..jam everywhere tongue.gif

I check the records of service, engine has been flushed, so i think nonit to flush this coming oil change. Planning to add those 'fuel treatment' or 'Carb Cleaner' additives to clear the carb and stuff.

BUt this wira is only 3 gears lor... Anyone here using the same model?

Yup, I saw a white Satria in Jenjarom today.
Really stupid. The ground clearance is only about 3 inches.
Both side bottom of the car 'kemek', most probably hit by bumps.
You can't see the top part of the tyre, cos it's hidden inside the wheel house.

I think that fella got no money to change sport spring, so he took the stock one & cut it short.
