what is the size of the 15' rims that can use with viva elite without havinng to modified ANYTHING?

15'x6 will fit nicely or too big?

guys my mileage now is 6600km. i have yet to do my 6k scheduled service. is that OK coz i need to travel to melaka tomorrow and back to shah alam again. ill service somewhere next week. will it damage my engine?

i met an accident. i banged into a taxi. it's totally my fault and i asked him not to make a report and i will pay for every single damage and i did. thank god. such a gentleman he is. i forgot to ask for his name. but he's a nice chinese chap. ok nvm..

what i wana ask is..how much is a brand new pair for viva elite front headlamp?

and say if my car is damaged until the radiator there bengkok a bit. after all the repair at 'body shop', will the car stability remains the same? the engine compartment seems OK. everything is OK.

again, im sorry to that taxi driver. it's totally my fault.

happy owner of elite EZi here . i hvnt drive elite EZ but i think it will be just about the same. the differences may come in cosmetics (i guess). different side mirrors, got spoiler, etc2.

hey guys, i just want to do some comparisons between 5'/5.5'/ width of the rim.

so, for a start, what is the width for the stock viva elite EZI rim eh? 5'?

thanx for the help

hey there bro, i noticed you're using 15x6jj. did you change your suspension setup (eg : sports absorber, harder spring)?

because i've got 15x6.5jj from my uncle and i'm not sure i can use it with stock suspension setup for viva elite ezi.

i see. did you change the springs only? how about if we keep the stock absorbers and match them with sport springs?

nice. what is the size of that rim and tyres?

hello guys, do any of you know the price for aftermarket extractor for 1.0 viva elite auto transmission? i want to replace mine after it was damaged by the accident before.

yo guys, the brake of elite ezi feels spongy to my liking and i want to change the brake pad.

any brand (if got seller at LYN even better) to recommend me?

haha. nevermind. thanx btw bro! oh, i just purchased bendix metalking titanium brake pad and tomorrow gona install at perodua SC during my 30k service. i'll update the feedback.

yeap, i bought bendix MKT. hehe


well, i havnt use long enough to give any comment. but yes, it does have screeching noises when braking especially when we brake during jam or during slow speed . that's normal for these kind of pads i guess. any sifoo?

i see. will keep an eye on that for the next 2 weeks. well, one of the reason i changed the brake pad is because i'm commuting almost 120km a day through highway. sometimes high speed (viva only, not that high speed la) driving when there's no car on the road

BTW, has any of you guys install water temp gauge? i know our engine doesnt need to have that meter, but it should be good to have one i think

not as high as i would do if i drive a persona, that's for sure la, my car is just a viva lor . hehe.

for engine oil. so far, i only use what perodua sc gave me when i went there for scheduled services. never bother before , i'll keep an eye on that when i go for my service appointment later at 4pm.

i've done
-change to 3-1 extractor (removed the stock one that came with cat con, so now i don't use cat con)
-cheapo muffler (too noisy, will change in future)
-bendix mkt.

i think, the next possible thing to do is per your suggestion, spark plug and grounding cable+VS i guess then. as for spark plug, that can wait i guess. i'll go for the latter 2 first.

ps : i'm super noob in this stuff BTW -,-'.

oh, happy chinese new year to all viva drivers! drive safe balik kampung!

i see. well, i'm scouting the price for spark plug right now. denso iridium is it?
oh, yes i'm going for the VS+GC from erictioh as well. cheaper than those branded and from the feedbacks that he got, i think it's worth a try for me .

BTW, here's my feedback using bendix MTK for 3 days. the brake is great. no vibration and the grip is good. oh, i can feel my ABS is working extra time to prevent my front wheels from locking up because of using stock 14' tyres from perodua that is almost 50% worn out. LOL =,=. my suggestion to those who are going for the aftermarket brake pad/brake system, change your tyres to the better one first. or else you won't be ultilizing the brake perfomance as it should

i won't recommend you to do that. BUT, to answer your question, yes. AFAIK there's an option to insert tube into the tyres for the case like you. my suggestion if you want to do it, put that tyre on the rear, at least when it does go 'kaboom' again you can still control your car .

ps: my grandfather is using this option for his old saga, but of course he use it as spare tyre la

i remove the cat con(viva cat con is built on the extractor, so i changed to aftermarket 3-1 extractor) and use cap ayam straight muffler but keeping the stock bullet for now. result = can feel the 'lightness' when reving but of course tooo noisy

about the FC, i've yet to measure it but so far so good.

air filter,spark plug = all stock for now.

hurm. i never did a complete and thorough test. partly because i'm lazy and partly because i only refuled RM30 each time the warning light (blinking) appeared. but, from my rough calculation my car can only get 13.7km. and so far i'm satisfied with it

indeed! but for my elite 1.0 auto, each bar can be as good as 71km and as bad as 50km per bar (floor to the metal 150 on clear PLUS highway in the middle of morning during weekend balik kampung. LOL)

the GC doesn't give any effect does it for you? hurm...i'm thinking to install both of them too

BTW guys, have any of you installed the 2nd layer of tint (those cheap one perhaps) after the original layer that came with the package when we bought the car from perodua? is it advisable to do so(other than the JPJ doens't allow to pass certain limit, is there any other reason)?

the original tint that the sale assistant gave me right now isn't dark enough and i'm thinking to apply the 2nd layer for all windows EXCEPT front windscreen and the rear windscreen. the RM160-RM180 packages at the Automotive garage sales do look tempting for me tho

niceee...looks like there're a lot more viva drivers aiming for 15'. me too, i think i'll go for the 15x6.5jj perhaps

anyway, update on my current FC

RM50 for 400KM of journey using Petronas Ron 95

so, that will be roughly around 15km/L. hurm..not really a nice figure, but i'm satisfied with it since with the upgraded exhaust setup(Rojak+StraightFlow), i always rev the engine a bit higher
