anyone still keep their stock RIM after changed to sport RIM? (15'' stock RIM)

last time i was thinking to keep the stock RIM,
scare not afford for good tires in future,
so can downgrade back to 15'' anytime tongue.gif  biggrin.gif

Not worth keeping it, wasting space...new 15" rims is around RM800 only. Besides, price 195/60/15 is not as cheap as 195/50/15.

If I change my rims, is it possible to make my car high enough so that it doesn't scrape the front bumper when going up a ramp or speed bumps?  hmm.gif

Wanna change to what size?

In MT case, the weird thing is when you depressed the throttle and pressed the clutch, the rpm will jump up a bit, and you can also drive without even pressing the pedal without it stalled even in 5th gear (as long as you don't pressed the brake).

this rpm jump up wont be solve wan la... its the characteristic of the ECU + DBW combo... lol
its just a matter of how high the rpm will jump only... mine jumped to 3.5k before and stay there for 10secs before too
LoL

unplug the battery connector is easier ma... lol
u damage the fuse connector how?
laugh.gif
reset ECU and remap ECU is different ah...
*
DBW will create some lag. Thus, you can feel during accelerating and decelerating.

actually by right DBW is supposedly to be faster/more accurate (whatever that means) then cable...
its the calibration from the manufacturer that is causing the lag...

Electronic control will always have some lags compared to mechanical. But it is easier to 'set/calibrate' as it is in form of 'software/programming'.

Carbon fibre sticker is the trend nowadays and the qulity is also very good. Some people stick it on the entire hood. thumbup.gif

That bonnet insulator/damper you can use 3m double sided to stick it back.

stick ah .. lol ... bad experience will double sided tape la bro lol ...

just wondering is that thing important ah?

how much to stick the carbon fiber sticker ?
*
Actually, bodykit such as skirting (PU) are also attach using 3m tape. To make it stronger, you can use '302' glue (the container looks like eye-mo) from hardware shop and put a few drop to the tape. This stuff is really strong. But please be careful not to stick your hand.

Carbon fibre sticker can just diy. Use heat-gun or hair dryer to 'bend; it into shape. Lighter can also be used.

rm100-rm150 for DIY. its black and foam type... i think called insulfex. it comes with adhesive at the back. just peel and stick on.  but you will need to have 2 thickness. 10mm and 6mm ones. stick the 10mm on the 'patches' and then the 6mm ones on the entire engine hood. tats the best and maximum sound shield. smile.gif

actually, i would think the black piece is there to protect the engine from splashing water and some heat coming onto the engine cover only...
*
I don't think insuflex can withstand the high temperature of the engine bay as its used for sound dampening. That OEM insulator is also fire resistance.

My friend offered me his unichip since he quit modding after an accident... donno wanna take it or not. Previously used in his gen2.

I will try asking him to 'loan' it to me to test 1st.. Why la no bonus this year doh.gif But opening CPS at 4.2k imo is not necessary unless the cam is higher (high cam req high rpm to be optimal).

one more thing. anyone know any promotion for gen2 cps?

p/s : what color is nice ha? i think i like the metal grey one.

haha... stop poisoning newbies with MT la.. although i'm a MT user myself.. its really nice. btw, i removed the stopper below the accelarator.. can spin wheels during cornering too... hehe...

i have no comments abt unichip. i heard tat chipping or retune maps are only after you maxed out ur engine specs...
*
Yeah, piggyback supposed to be installed at the end of upgrading project to save cost on tuning. But since there's not much upgrading and aftermarket part for CPS and I already done most of the minor mod, maybe I could give it a try.

haha. smile.gif good mods smile.gif anyway myth lcp, do you think worth the money? i heard it worsen the car's top speed.

anyway, wad other mods you looking forward to?


Added on October 29, 2009, 10:49 pm

yea. still got power. but of cz not as effective as the shifting gear in manual.
*
Actually I got it 2nd hand, so cheaper than new one. Compared to exhaust and intake mod, I suggest do the exhaust/intake 1st. No problem with top speed but got problem with wheel spin when turning at junction and dragging at traffic light.

*
Maybe could go for LCP (or complete pulleys set when they finish RnD brows.gif , saw ur post at automotive garage). Or go for better spark plugs and cables. But between these two, I would suggest LCP.

haha. wad do you mean by complete pulleys set? I keep reading a lot of pros and cons of LCP. STRESSING! haha.

Good acceleration but then the car itself so light adi. scare when cornering can even fly adi. xD
*
The only cons of LCP I experienced is that you will loose momentum faster when decelerates (depressing the throttles). But this can be easily overcome by improvising throttle control, depressed the pedal a little and not complexly lift up your feet.
