Bro alvinz... i kinda read up da posts dat i missed & found out that ur extractor n cat con change liow congrads on ur upgrade rclxms.gif . Just wanna ask how is ur consumption and power after change and is ur extractor from the zenden brand?
*
yea change liao brows.gif ....
extractor not from zenden, only the bullet is by zenden ...
zenden's extractor is chromed RM230 if i din rmb wrong ... becoz i don wan chrome so i took the gulvernized steel, dunno how to spell .. haha ...
overall, i feel the car lighter than usual, very good on the low to mid range rpm ... only down part is when u rev high around 3.5k above u will hear the extractor bassy sound ...
FC i still not very sure, after changing i have been travelling ... now settled down liao so i will start monitor 100% city drive and let u all know .. don think have much difference gua .. haha
anyway, thanks .. when u gonna do urs? .. lolx laugh.gif

QUOTE(masao343 @ Aug 10 2009, 04:20 PM)
oh my, even with your petrol tank problem, you're already having the same FC as mine, so i think yours can only be better than mine now. i feel terrible. time to do 1-3-5 shifts damnit! but that means i cant heavy feet on the gas also liao...nvm i test n see big diff or not...

eh killer can get 15km/L ? full highway si bo (without toilet breaks)?
jealous lei.... i seldom do highway now.
*
halt! stop the assumptions ....
i think b4 petrol tank leaks, it has no problem le .. coz i dont notice any petrol smell and also petrol leakage .. i think that time i pump too much petrol then due to pressure imbalance and also the faulty hose then it leaks out ...
but still i doubt the FC will improve much coz now i see its almost the same sweat.gif ...
no idea woh, u gotta ask him lo ... if i am not wrong he mention around 50/50 highway and city ... not sure ... hmm.gif

guys, is it possible to adjust the clutch pedal or not? the problem with mine is, lots of freeplay, but real clutch function is only a small area.
lemme illustrate, maybe easier to explain:

[attachmentid=1129119]
lets say x is the full distance the clutch pedal travels
but my Hiro, the x is the only zone that the clutch FEELS like it is working.
example after change gear, if i start to release the clutch a bit, the gear wont engage.
it is only if i release more of the clutch reach the y zone then the gear engages.
and next is the problem! right after the y zone (which if u notice, very small area only) the clutch engages FULLY.
so the car often jolts to the front coz the gear fully engaged suddenly.
i need to do very delicate clutch control to prevent the jolt. but i think it is also not normal
never felt like tis with other cars. so can tis be fixed, guys? thanks
eh if u like to enjoy audio in car, then better dun touch your exhaust - wait your ICE have to compete with your exhaust sound  sweat.gif
*
yes it is possible ... u can call the mech to adjust ...
i did that adjustment b4 on my mom's car .. =) ... can even make it bounce bounce brows.gif ... tongue.gif

yea lo ..complete sound system 1st .... woofer bass + extractor bass + muffler bass = flex.gif monster bruce.gif powerrr ... laugh.gif

everytime i brake, got keek keek sound, then the pedal will vibrate 1. Is it no more brake? anyone know what is the problem?
*
maybe brake pad wearing off ... or maybe just too much dust ...
this is normal problem lo, my ride also got the high pitch sound, when do tire rotation the workshop help me clean the dust then no sound liao ... now start coming again ...

QUOTE(masao343 @ Aug 11 2009, 11:22 AM)
guys, i got lots to learn about tyres and rims.
for example, what is the importance of the rim's width?

1. example, some 6.5" and some 7"... for wira, if we wanna fit 195 tyres, then 6.5" or 7" both also can or what?

2. for wira, if i have 15" rims, and wish to put in 195/205 tyres, what is the profile i could use? eg. 195/55 those numbers. how thick can we fit into the wira without problem of scraping the wheel arc?

FYI my wira stock springs and shocks. normal height, but sometimes i carry full load on car, so i need some extra freeplay space, cannot install too thick (tebal) tyres, right?

3. the offset, what offset can fit into a wira?
for nicer looks (negative offset?) to get the wheels to be further from car body (macam mini cooper), what kinda offset? or must use spacer?

sorry about the noob questions, i need to learn from u all. thanks
*
hmm.gif not very sure also woh ...
our wira can fit 6.5 and 7 without any problems, using normal abs and spring i don think will have any problem lo ...
195/50 or 55 also is up to u one ...
others i tak tau liao .. laugh.gif
