when you want to race or smoke the other car, remember - safety come first. we dont want to see any accident cause by it...

For top speed,
Do not to belive the spedometer.Its depends on your tyre and rims size.
Normally i heard and read on this forum,many can achieve the average 160km,but i think the actually spedd only 150-155km/h.I think the manufacturer not re-set the meter according to the tyre size what we use in Malaysia market. Evil or Very Mad

I had test my car pass the speedcather near the Sprint highway,many times coz x puas hati Evil or Very Mad

.If my meter show 80km/h,in the electronic board show "70km/h" only.except if i drove my Kancil it can give the accurate according to our meter.

Some more, some of the meter either car,motorcycle-when u reach a certain speed e.g.>120km/h that meter can consider "ringan"..

if im not mistake,if standard wira 1.5 with our standard accent,w/o any mod-for top speed just let them go lah..coz i had try many times 1.3 wira can achieve 170km/h (only with open pod air filter)& standard rims.

Sometimes race with other car is depending on the driver as well. Some driver might have a good car but they not dare to drive fast. Dun think that our car can race a Honda Civic for eg. thats no way for us to do that.

If you dun believe try a test drive on that car then you will know the difference. I manage to drive over many car in highway including 1.8cc and 2.0cc but i dun think is my car which fast.

but our Accent is way better than many 1.5cc car. modify your perfomance is just for your interest and not to race la.

Mine is a Accent 2003 Manual. No problem running at 185 km/h on North South Highway. For 1.5cc car, I'm quite happy with the performance. I've tailed lot of modified local cars on LDP, smart tunnel, and most of the highway. Couldn't overun but manage to follow tight or overtake them during cornering. However I've been smoked by a Cefiro 3.0 and BMW 3 series at 180 km/h. No way to even follow them.

However I found that the pick up isn't really good. Really wish I could have 1.8cc and 16V engine under the hood.
