I read from other forums, they said it's not good to use 100% coolant, got a ratio coolant+water, so I don't understand regarding the ratio thingy. But mostly about flushing the radiator coolant. icon_question.gif

Firstly welcome to the club...you are most welcome and encourage to learn n share here..espcially regards to our precious ride..

In order to reduce the bodyroll.. I personally suggest u to install the front top stabilizer bar and also install the anti roll bar (is installed underneath on the rear).. This will cost u around 500rm for both (including installation) UltraRacing brand for sure.. U do ur home work as well about these bars..

Ive installed 3 bars on my car..(rear lower + arb + front top stabilizer bar) I do feel the difference after the installation.. More confident while cornering.. laugh.gif

Which part of flushing that ur not clear? If u look underneath of the car..at the radiator part there like this one white tap like plug.. To drain the coolant just open that part.. And at the same time run water thru the top part..and internally run water on the reserve tank as well.. After few mins start the engine as well and keep running water .. ( water will leak on the bottom part as well) this is to drain away the rusty water from the tank and radiator..

After clean water drains out turn off engine and close back the drain tap which is under neath the radiator..


Fill up coolant directly to the radiator 3/4 full and balance goes to the reserve tank..and add normal tap water to the radiator until it overflows..and also don't fill the reserve tank full..just follow the marking..(normally 3/4 full)..

That's only what I can share based on my exp.. Correct me if I am wrong

bro, flushing means release radiator water.. normally workshop will know how to do it.
advisable to replace water/coolant at every service interval & it's not costly.. below rm30 - toyota coolant

as for bodyroll, agree tht viva's terrible. i've installed rear anti roll bar & it helps. not necessary must be UR brand.. any brand will do as long as there's something holding both the rear lower arms..
