anyone actually know the weight difference of 4agte vs 3sgte ?? if not mistaken it's not even equal to 1 adult :unsure: so like this will have a lot of difference in chassis balance ah ?? not too sure also just asking .. hahahhah

not sure, but last time i help my family transport some bricks (for garden beautifying purpose), 30 brick only, and the car feel different when cornering..

i'm not going fast at all.. if really go fast dunno what will happen :P no wonder MRS don have any boot at the rear

i was told by a sifoo who has done lots and lots of transplants and mods ... hehehehehe ... cannot say who laa .. that 3SGE engine from SXE10 is about maybe 12kg heavier than 4AGE 20v ... :P

i dont think 12kg makes that much difference laaa ... or does it ??? :P

replace with ultra-light CF hood to make up for the weight gained..

same weight, plus lower center of gravity or something?? :ph34r:

the engine hood is above the engine... you use a heavier engine, but a lighter hood.. its like shifting the weight down already.. doesn't that do any good in lowering the central of gravity?? :unsure: [/b][/quote] ooohh ... u talking about the weight of the hood aahh ??? ok ok .. i tot the weight and location of the engine ... hahahahaaha ... i suppose yes laa .. overall centre of gravity would have been lowered slightly ... :P
