Extreme Tuning from China: Brilliance Coupe with a Twinturbo V6

This is a really unique car for those who really have passion and knowledgeable enough to be able distinguish what is required in a sports coupe.

I am still keeping one , in Guangdong, China.

in fact,this is proud to be the first “sports” car ever built in China in this new era of Chinese auto industry in this decade. whereas the Geely meirenbao is just a joke!

to be fair, bear in mind that this is not a super car, so it should not be compare with Porsche, Ferrari,lambo.
yet it is a coupe which can deliver “sporty” feel and handling on road,my normal cruising speed is below 140km. still comfortably driving at 160km-180km on highway S43.
Drawback –I ve did a bit of research and discovered that the ZF gear box in standard version can not substain over 200hp engine output power , and even the newer gearbox which they are manufacturing in their Namjing plant for the 1.8 turbo can only substain up to 240hp. !
besides, there is likely to end up”burning” your Clutch with increased power.
you need to improve the brake as well, even the 330mm disc is too small for a 280hp engine. the standard caliper has only 2 piston!

my objection in swaping into a bigger engine may need carefull reconsideration.

What I have done to my car is :
1)a tower bar.
2)adjustable suspension.
3)a set of 18″ wheels and low profile tire.

4)a most unique Electronic Gearshift device for my manuel gearbox ,which I do not have to step on the clutch in changing gear, thus giving me all the joy of a manuel with the comfort of a semi automatic.

although extra “cage” is integrated in the chasis and doors,this car became a bit too heavy, so do not expect the 4G93 engine can be a rocket on traffic lights, but it is reasonably efficient on 3rd-4th gear in city as well as highway driving.

this car deserve respect as the pioneer in joint venture design and engineering , which points the direction , motivates and speed up the car mfg industry industry in history.

If comparing to the Korean Coupe, this car is Muscle and mandom, whereas the korean became sexy and juicy.

you will got lots of curious enquiry on “what is this car?” in gas station if you clean up all the ugly badges on the body.

This car is also a “head turner” on road because it is rare! for years to come , it will be some one of a kind “pink rabbit”

This car is not for everyone but exclusive for those who have experienced quite a lot of more expensive sports cars, and who knows what to look for in the pleasure of driving.
