Malaysia’s rear-wheel drive king and R3’s top man Tengku Djan takes the awesomely hot Civic Type R FD2R for a special testing. Does front-wheel driven FD2R have what it takes to excite a RWD enthusiast? Check out the whole story at Zerotohundred.com.

RM2.70/litre (or for those of us who run on V-Power - that’s a whopping RM3.15/litre!) for petrol? For an oil-producing country, we’re 2 times more expensive than UAE, which goes for RM1.19/litre. What’s the world coming to? What’s Malaysia coming to?

Look at the chart below:

What’s a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 that produces 473 horsepower and 588Nm of torque doing running with a speed limiter?

The techie boys at RACE can now lay claim as the first tuner to install the HKS VAC (Velocity Advanced Computer) speed cut for the GT-R R35/VR38DETT. The HKS VAC eliminates the stock speed limiter which limits road driving to a pedestrian 180km/h.

It has not been the smoothest of journeys for the 25-man strong Proton Motorsports Division, what the general public fondly knows as R3 (Race Rally Research). Battling red tape and budget constraints since its inception, attributed much to its umbilical cord attached to the Proton mothership, R3 has been rather silent from the scene much through 2006. The successful R3 Time Attack Series (formerly known as Street ShootOut - SSO), which saw the birth of the ‘Short Course Special’ SSO cars - SSO Satria and Putra, sputtered a horrible death, much to the disappointment of the grassroots motorsports fraternity. The very series that not only helped build R3 brand visibility and presence, and inspire the spawning of the first ever retail limited edition R3 vehicle - the track-special Satria R3. Dead.
