hi guys, just to ask sumthing about K&N drop in for myvi, some say it helps a little in acceleration, but some still stick with stock filter and think that aftermarket filters are not necessary. I'm currently wondering whether should i change it to K&N to get a little more juice from my myvi, hope u guys could give me some advise?about de-cat.....does it really improves as well?how about the noise after de-cat?still like normal?
*
my recommendation is to use the stock filter change every 10k or 15k, preferably p2 filter cos theres a bit of diff in the filter material if u use the aftermarket compatible filters. 10k or 15k depends on how dusty are the places u drive thru

QUOTE(cheeann @ Jun 19 2009, 12:17 AM)
yes,it did~
cuz i had increase ur camber setting which normally  aunty / uncle drive sure wear inside shoulder a bit but for u still wearing outside shoulder instead,so tat's how i know u've been taking sum corners+ if u notice ur front tires got a bit chipped on d outer shoulder like 'mouse bite'? ?    smile.gif

oic.. can feel ma wink.gif the parada spec2 i had, always have this prob no matter how hard i pump em up..always wear edges
so if wanna main performance tyre.. highly recommend pp2.. keep under the bed for a few months also never lose pressure much biggrin.gif

Plan to buy Myvi for my GF to drive to work. Prefer 1.3 Auto used car. Don't feel worth to spend RM 40k+ on Myvi.
What year should I look and price that is reasonable?
Is there a lot of problems?

Aiyah bro..
now oni u want ar...
I sold my 2006 auto 1.3 fullspec (premium) for 32500.. tiptop cond and scratchless paintwork (although got stonechips laugh.gif)

most of the 2005/06 ones seem to have better finishings...i think.. which are also the ones using the fat sparkplug (NGK BKR6EY11) reputed to be better engine than the newer 07/08 ones? In my case (2006) model very reliable, never breakdown...even stock battery also still running perfectly

Only problem with the myvi is tat the freaking disc brake warping problem..
claim hundred of times also same problem
MY theory is that the ventilated disc is too thin (if it was solid old school disc it wud not warp).. to be ventilated - it warps under normal use.
So.. if u wanna solve it for good get a solid disc from other car with the same dimensions (size, thickness and PCD100) to replace the stock disc.. then i wud say ta-dah, prob solved for good.

Oh... That is quite a nice price .. I've seen a lot at RM 35k ~ RM 40k but don't know how to choose.. Never buy local car before..

Any problem other than the disc brake?

If Myvi fail to impress me.. Maybe collect more cash for Vios / swift ..

Thanks .. smile.gif

If that's the case, get Myvi. Maintain stock condition. Service on time (extra 1k or 2k also can).
U should have more money to spend at the end of the day. smile.gif
But don't hape for comfort ride from Myvi. It's impossible to get it.

Good luck

Yup, once the disc brake problem is solved then the car is excellent to drive. Cheap and can be easily maintained.
