Satria GTi or Neo R3 RS?

[bikerz]

If you would given a choice, which one to choose?

1) RM35k Stock standard Satria GTi

or

2) RM58k Stock standard Satria Neo R3 (145hp edition)

In term of performance which one is more superior?

 

[4gbanger]

i vote gti.. if got gti r3, i choose gti r3..

 

[DanzEterna]

ive own a SGTI before, its a damn fun car....
my vote goes with 4gbanger. if have the funds go for satria R3

 

[KenDiriwan]

Def, old GTi rock.

The Original Satria GTI is still my favourite. It's everything you want in a GTI. Like 4banger said, if you can get the R3, you should.

 

[ixeo]

35k is too much to pay. And get a R3 LEV.

 

[4gbanger]

wait, how come 58k can get the 145hp neo meh???

 

[AlucarD]

GTi of course!!

 

[peeche]

wait, how come 58k can get the 145hp neo meh???

i vote for SGTi.! 1st model one.. using Mitsu wiring and ECU.

 

[VTEC LoVeR]

GTI R3 is always in my list...

 

[4gbanger]

especially no speed cut and lighten version of R3... slurpp...

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

gti r3 black!

 

[4gbanger]

only the satria gti r3 i can call FULLY LOADED...

 

[spec-c]

ummm correct me if im wrong but i tot the 145hp version is 80k wor...

I'm the 1st person here to suggest Satria Neo R3 (145hp)...because its newer..
It's 1.6L got higher power than 1.8L Satria GTi...and similar in torque..
That 4G93 engine should be older thus losing more power since then...

For end-to-end performance surely the Satria GTi will be better..its lighter..and simpler..

I won't trade a little bit of performance for a lot of safety, tech and reliability.

oh, wait..that 145hp is the Lotus Racing edition...definitely a must have!
I suspect its the not-lotus-racing edition with extra R3 modification..so, its not stock then..

 

[4gbanger]

bro, i think u r comparing neo r3 with satria gti non r3. i know 4g93 already approximately 160bhp stock.. but with additional of R3 parts like camshaft, remapped ecu, full exhaust system, upgraded disc brake n racing pads, lighten body, etc.. gti r3 would be a lot faster than neo r3 lotus. but im not saying neo r3 lotus is not fast, its just a tuned car with alot of dead weight..

ummm correct me if im wrong but i tot the 145hp version is 80k wor...

of coz 2nd hand la bro.. its no more on production

well i consider this as stock..

Personally I like the 1800cc torque. This baby is getting old already, probably you need to solve the rusting issue. For 35k to get a gti is abit overprice, and its hard to get those MMC model with good condition.

For Neo R3, I would say it is abit of lacking power:hmmmm:... But in terms of handling, it is sweet.

i thought the black roof version only have 135hp..sorry my mistake..that one is the 2008 black Neo R3..

yes, the 2011 red 'black roof' Neo R3 have 145hp..

but, the Satria GTi have 167nm torque..
Neo R3 have 168nm...so its similar..

Yup power figures for both are similar. no 160 hp nonsense at stock, in fact sadly, many have been dyno'ed at far less :-(
Neo has a much stiffer chassis, but a higher centre of gravity from my experience, or at least it feels like that!
GTI vs NEO power and torque are similar, but the main question is at what rpm those figures come in (torque and hp curves) and the useable powerband within normal driving ranges. Also, the time taken to reach those peak figures.
Nowadays seems like there are more parts for the neo versus the gti for hop ups anyway :-)
