Hi there car's sifu,

I plan to buy 2nd hand weekend car just to drive around town or layan corner around selangor, and maybe long drive to melaka/ipoh from kl. weekend car must have good hp and torque maybe close to 200bhp , i search carlist and finalize the candidate. Volkswagen Golf Gti (mk5) , Proton Satria Gti , and civic type r (hatchback) , all under rm50k, and year also the same 2000-2005, which car should i get?


Tldr best hatchback power 200hp under 50k

200hp kinda exaggerated just fast will do.

inalize the list and and advantages

1) VW golf gti mk5 -all wheel drive - dual clutch gb - powerful engine (2004-2005)

2) proton satria gti / neo - install turbo kits - good handling and good power to weight ratio. (2000-2005)

3)toyota altezza 3sge beams - stock already powerful - rear wheel drive - look good ( 2002-2004)

4) suzuki swift sport - nimble and agile - not to old - ( 2013-2014)

Volkswagen Golf Gti (mk5)
- sort of meets the criterias, within budget pretty decent everywhere else

satria gti
- this is sort of out of place no? might as well consider a modified neo.... (only an option if you know how to view modified cars)

civic type-r
- let me be frank, you will find it VERY difficult to find an ep3-r for this money.

alternatives
celica
- around the same age, offers decent performance (to be clear, the top end 2zz manuals are decent, rest are silly in my opinion )
- keep in mind, many adds listed on mudah are alot higher than what they tend to go for... (just saying)
- make sure to test life when you go for a test drive. and dont miss shift and the car is actually very reliable.

rx8
- also a nice car
- rotaries interesting but can be expensive

Ya golf gti mk5 is on my top list , i think spare part is kinda rare right, for satri gti i think 1.8 engine is sufficient right, im thinking of upgrading its suspension and tyre + paint since the price is quite low to other and budget is viable for upgrade. Celicas i dont know about it much, i know its 1.8 engine (around 180bhp) but trannny mostly auto kinda rare to find manual. Rx-8 is out of my list, fuel makan monster ( from what u heard,)and just dont like the look.

the golf is alot more powerful and is in the upper limits of your budget range while nowadays i have actually seen a few satria gti's (real gti's mind you, with the uprated chassis) change hands for significantly less than 20k.... which imo, is pretty decent and as you have said, leaves you alot for maintanance and upgrades. Parts are not really that difficult to find if you ask me...

if i were you, would take a look at celicas as well.... maybe the mrs even (tho body parts/trim are more difficult) cause its a lightweight mid engined rwd car.

**just so you know (im quite sure you already know) cars this old, are cash only if you dont take into account personal loans.

170hp... well give n it has a turbo, and how easy it is to actually gain power on fi cars, ill just believe you BUT pose a counter question.... 170hp for how long? tranny can tahan? turbo seals? turbo itself? ohc?

unless everything else it uprated to withstand the same levels..... this might not be a great idea.

Needs tuning to get 180+ HP.

How reliable is the DCT gearbox, and how much must be set aside for gearbox repair?

1)golf, has a wetclutch, so its more reliable then the typical ds's you are used to seeing.... do note however there are a few weak points with the engine itself...... so prepare some cash before getting one, just in case.

2)mrs is newer than some cars in your list, not sure what you are on about..... (note that im suggesting the mrs not mr2!!, these are diferent models)

3)if you are to go with a turbo-ed cps... i would suggest you forget about it and just get a pre-converted 4g63t/4g93t neo instead..... (do research and talk to ppl that have done it first b4 thinking about these modified cars.... )
compared to a bolt on cps... these are the pros: its actually built to deal with the turbo's output, the cps wasnt designed to take boost, wear and limits are diferent. tuning and parts can be less complicated cause at the end of the day, its a 4g. cons: a converted car needs to be checked throughly, why is the owner selling it? is it failing? is it built cheaply? did they do it right? what parts did they use? fc will be garbage.... 4g63t's are known to be very very powerful engines but they drink fuel like its free if you stay on boost often.

4)forget the r34.... any r34 you can find for 50-60k isn worth even considering

5)someone suggested the altezza? thats actually a good idea... manual with the 3sge (not the autos or lexus models with the 6 potter)

Do buy honda or satria gti if you have a really good workshop to build it. Enuff said. Those type r (b18cr@k20ar) is a good engine but have to deal with a good build. And those 4g series, yeah. Also know how to build it. Go with newer cars if u dont want to spend so much money on repair maintanence etc. Just my 2 cent. And from experience and otai advices.

Honda b@k series and 4g series is easy to repair but hard to build to get a decent hp.

a proper evo comes with a properly designed chassis for the engine AND 4wd.. the fwd setup on the neo will never achieve what the 4wd platform is capable of.

just keep in mind, evo7's more than 50k... lol even (real) evo 5's and 6's cost around that or more.

all fake information ...

if u find this car in mudah. would be top spec, which is fake (top spec don't use half cluster).
2. this car ain't TFSI engine.
3. 2002 black interior, interior n year make different.
this is what i can tell they lie, base on their ad.
i kena few time by them, they can even lie when we there, they can show me VW FSI engine, they tell me that is TSI engine, on grant it just miss type ... what a joker.

btw if u having chances to view this car, ask for grant, see owner before (name on grant), is that ang mo.

ts, you see, this is someone who knows what he is looking at..... this is why you need to know everything about the car you want to get.

the older satrias well.... problem with them is they are now very old. Many owners lepas tangan cause they have already 'played' with the cars and theres possibly too much work that needs doing. The newer satria neos with these evo engines, well they are not too badlah, chassis is pretty decent + the power to boot (one could even say too much for a 2wd to handle)

Hi there car's sifu,

I plan to buy 2nd hand weekend car just to drive around town or layan corner around selangor, and maybe long drive to melaka/ipoh from kl. weekend car must have good hp and torque maybe close to 200bhp , i search carlist and finalize the candidate. Volkswagen Golf Gti (mk5) , Proton Satria Gti , and civic type r (hatchback) , all under rm50k, and year also the same 2000-2005, which car should i get?
Tldr best  hatchback power 200hp under 50k

200hp kinda exaggerated just fast will do.

Finalize the list and problems:

1) VW golf gti mk5 - engine issue need to lookout, gearbox second

2) proton satria gti / neo - converted engine 4g93 / 4g63t - turbo car need special workshop / good mechanic

3)toyota altezza 3sge beams - workshop with good mechanic
*
Out of your list above, the Altezza 6 speed manual should be the best choice. If later you got more budget, can turbocharge it or swap 1JZ turbo in it!

Other choice to consider maybe:
- Subaru Impreza WRX V8, can only get non STI for that budget but still pretty fast too.
- Accord Euro R CL1, pretty rare car.
- Mitsubishi Galant VR4, very old and rare car but still bloody fast.
- Suzuki Swift Sport ZC32S (from 2012 onwards). I know this is far below 200hp (only 136hp) but it's also a very light car at just slightly over 1 ton weight plus got 6 speed manual, so it's quite a zippy car. If you want it faster then can also install some turbo/supercharger kit which are available for this car. I mention this car coz you also put Satria GTI there.

Correct, Mark X 2.5 std power is around 200-212HP only, so not that fast considering it needs to haul 1.5-1.6 ton of weight.

Wow thanks for the infos, well altezza seem to be the best bet amng all the other candidate. Swift sport got good review by topgear and fifthgear show right. The year is an advantage among all, since just a few year old. Okay will look into it. Thanks man.

If you plan to go for Satria GTI. I suggest you go for Satria R3.
Own 1 before, the chasis is much better and lighter. It is damn fun to drive and easy to maintain. Regrets to sell it, should have keep it as weekend car.

This one on mudah seem very well maintain and mods from official R3.

well they are well known but i dont wana comment on their packages... they are hefty cause they have to a certain extent proven that their kit does produce around what they offer you... reliability is a whole different question. for neos, an alternative which i do feel is actually decent and is kinda special are the supercharged units... one or 2 companies like proreka offer kits for em

the altezza is a very nice car, worthy of contending in this list....

guest is right, if the satrias are listed here, the swift s too deserves to be listed. The only advantage of owning a satria here is the abundance of replacement bits littered wherever you look. (hunting for spare parts can get tiring)

Honda eg or ek with k20 or b18 engine.

Fwd. You won't crash. Can learn alot of driving skill. And have fun on touge road. Maintainence cheap..

If newer ride. Swift sport. But it's only 135hp. Tuning parts can be expensive too..but so is the same for Honda....

Turbo satria all. Don't la. It's hard to drive and..mitsubishi performance engine isn't that reliable also. .. Not to mention, Satria/wira chassis if cruise over 200kmh.wont feel safe.

if you are gona avoid the mitsu's (especially the terbalik ones) for reliability issues, you might was well forget the b series hondas.... k series, yeah those are like the terbaliks, generally more reliable cause its basically a newer engine. and let me be very frank, an eg/ek at 200km/h doesn't exactly fill you with the sense of safety either.

Yup, all reviews said the SS is a very fun car to drive. With the SS you get a much younger car and therefore should be less hassle to repair, plus you can still get loan! smile.gif It's a sleeper car as well since not many will expect it to be quite as sporty. Install a turbo/supercharger kit then it will be a giant killer! laugh.gif

Finalize the list and and advantages

1) VW golf gti mk5 -all wheel drive - dual clutch gb - powerful engine (2004-2005)

2) proton satria gti / neo - install turbo kits - good handling and good power to weight ratio. (2000-2005)

3)toyota altezza 3sge beams  - stock already powerful - rear wheel drive - look good ( 2002-2004)

4) suzuki swift sport - nimble and agile - not to old - ( 2013-2014)

there must be some give..... you cannot have - low cost, low maintenance, frugal, fast,great handling - all in one package...

would like to know whats your definition of 'fast' and what kind of cars have you tested? If you are able to give an example of what you are expecting, might be better...

not the point im trying to make friend.... but i know that these volvos, their replacement parts cast a pretty penny compared to the other cars in his list.

Its not about takut service, its about how much you pay to service it, VS what it offer's ts. This car isnt that fast in a straight line nor is it great round the bends. (well, will admit top end is pretty decent)

the older gen1 shares bits with the waja (and wiras) but the gen 2 does not. i do assume we are talking about the gen 2 here, the gen 1 is quite abit older......


** i stand corrected........ you did mention t4 so you are talking about the older 1st gens.
been assuming you were suggesting the gen2 those are expensive. gen1's i dont know if those are 'cheap' to jaga....

So do you want to practice drifting or just enjoy touge spirited driving? If want to practice drifting then must use RWD car so the Altezza is the best choice. If you just want to enjoy touge without drifting then FWD cars like the SS can do and will be easier for beginners.

tezza>cefiro... (i assume you mean the later models not the a31)... the 2.0 cefiro's are underpowered while the larger ones are petrolholics. Also, rwd vs fwd..... if you have the budget, the altezza is basically a better car

i think you might be talking about the older a31's.... those you can sumbat a rb26.... the ones i mentioned had transverse engines, not so many options out there. Then again... you can plonk in a 2jz into the altezza if one is silly enough.

Lexus IS250 : Internal luxury with sporty feel. 210 hp v6. same as the above, the cheapest is250 is around the price of an e7
E36 : add on nice body kits, engine convert to m5 (half cut can be find). only a handful of e36 S54 transplants, also roadtax/maintanance will utterly kill

For e36, dont have to do engine tranplant, get a overbore (hiop, hartge, ac) kit, from 325 to 3.0,3.1 or 3.2, that will be perfect ride that come with comfort n power, can easily kautim stock 63t or vr4 in rolling start .... Top speed dont even need to mention .....

I drive this car since 2012. Coming to 80k mileage now. The torque is addictive. Now even better with Euro5 diesel. A few mods can be done to spice things up. Some easy and quick, some more complicated. Join the user group at Ford Owners Club Malaysia (FOCM) Facebook.

Hardly any issues at all. I know people doing over 250k mileage already. Still running good.

There is a good workshop in Subang that specializes in Ford. It helps going to the right people for a fix.

there are a few reasons for that lowish pricetag... first of which is... its nolonger loanable. Not as easy to sell anymore.
iirc, no 200hp, the most powerful variant of the mark1 had less than 170 at crank so even less at the wheels

anyway, something written by @zenix a while back

Even current newer B38 3 cylinder units have inherent big problem. The earlier year units have problems related to the crankshaft bearings and BMW silently issued TSB.

Those getting this car try to get assurance the engine is manufactured post 2016 to be on the safe side.

Are these >10 year old Conti cars a viable prospect to maintain? They could be money pits and instead of weekend rides they could be weekend workshop visits. Reminds me of my foolish friend along time ago who thought buying an old Alfa Romeo for weekend rides was a good idea. The car spend more time in the workshop than on the road. In his one year of ownership he only managed to drive the car for 4-5 months. He had to let go of the car at basically junk price because he could no longer afford to repair it and his finances was shot to pieces.

Just a cautionary tale.

If you want to drive a 200HP car there is a new car option and it doesn't cost RM200K or more. In fact it is only RM131K OTR w/o insurance.

You have peace of mind with 5 years warranty and 3 years/50,000 km free service. Best of all it can be used as a daily car so you don't need to maintain 2 cars with double road tax, insurance and parking space.

Ya, RM131K is far from RM50K but consider that you can trade in your present ride and factor in RM10K a year maintenance for the next 5 years for the second hand weekend car plus whatever amount for your present ride and it begins to make sense.

But the security and peace of mind is priceless. Instead of driving in fear of the next breakdown and the effect on your pocket you drive in peace and sleep soundly at night.

What wonderful car is this? I'll give you a hint. It carries a slanting H. biggrin.gif

Honda eg or ek with k20 or b18 engine.

Fwd. You won't crash. Can learn alot of driving skill. And have fun on touge road. Maintainence cheap..

If newer ride. Swift sport. But it's only 135hp. Tuning parts can be expensive too..but so is the same for Honda....

Turbo satria all. Don't la. It's hard to drive and..mitsubishi performance engine isn't that reliable also. .. Not to mention, Satria/wira chassis if cruise over 200kmh.wont feel safe.

You have got to be kidding me, the mitsubishi performance engine isn't reliable? Other than the VTECs. 4G engines are one of the most resilient workhorses. Their rally experience is not for naught bro. flex.gif

I'd skew towards the Mk5 GTi. That's speaking from my driving experience with it. Love the DSG. On top of that, it carries the luxury of a Conti. Don't expect it to be on par with the newer contis. To be fair, it's a 10 year old car but it will still put a wide big smile on your face when u floor it.

Btw, I saw some comments from other forumers regarding the gearbox. The Mk5 comes with the 6-speed wet transmission, not the problematic 7-speed dry version.

Keep aside plenty of cash for maintenance though...

for me i think suv is the most suitable car in malaysia, since you know the road is quite terrible, more holes, uneven road and so on. sedan and hatchback really need to take care a bit more than suv since it's lower body. if you can afford better stick to suv less headache in term of stretching, bumper, incident hit & run, etc. you just consider which one should fine for you coz i own lot of experience and cars too so i could tell which one is better choice. anyway enjoy your ride~ icon_rolleyes.gif

haha diferent ppl suka dif kind of thing..... some just like that low down driving position. In hind sight, while its certainly an experience, it becomes a chore after a while.... Example, there are some corners which become really difficult to deal with when idiots decide to park by the road shoulder or if there's a stupidly placed bush there because you unfortunately cannot look through the windows of other cars or bushes. Other annoying things include not being to look through the car infront of you to anticipate traffic. Things like that.
