Reporting in!

09' Toyota Vios G spec

been looking for LC 195/55 recently, got no stock everywhere
btw, heard tat LC not good in wet road, xm1 is better, izit ? btw, cant find xm1 195/55

mcryan, ur ques like repeating n never ends

is the HU of vios E able to play mp3 files that are stored in dvd?

i was googling web for this issue and found out this dude's page
http://www.mudah.my/Toyota-vios-08-E-spec-...-HU-5334180.htm
so just wanna confirm...
sigh why toyota dun give HU wif AUX port???

ooo...but it just looks the same with my HU...
CD capacity so small ...always need to change disc

Yup, never compromise on tyre quality coz u will use it for at least 2 years n ur life is depending on ur tyre choices as well. Never go for china made tyres for now.

all i heard is PS3 will be out around March i duno where did he get the stock...
mind to PM me the place??? if is in Klang valley maybe i can visit his as i need to change my SEG also...

Basic range for some brand....

Michelin - PS2 is Max Performance Category, PP2 is Ultra High Performance, Primacy LC is Luxury Comfort, XM1 is Entry Level... (XM1 not available in 195/55 R15)

Yokohama - Advan AD08 Max Performance Category, S Drive Ultra High Performance, ES501/C Drive is Luxury Comfort, A drive is Entry Level... (all available for 195/55 R15)

Toyo - R888 is Max Performance Category, T1R is Ultra High Performance, DRB is Ultra High Performance (but it's performance is slightly lower than T1R, Teo Plus is Entry Level... (Teo Plus not available in 195/55 R15)

well PS2 can say is Mex Performance while AD08 is Extreme so does KU36... but for extreme tires the wet is not that good... PS2 is good in wet but PS3 is about 30% more better than PS2 in wet... thats y i wanna try it as it smell so good when you say it is good in wet...

compare to Ultra High Performance tire like S Drive, PP2, V12, T1R, RE001... PP2 stand out on the wet performance, while others cannot get really close to it... V12 is quite but not that close as PP2 i can drive 140km/h in NSE while raining like heavily but V12 i felt some small hydroplaning effect already at 110km/h

i emphasize more on wet driving coz that is very dangerous, it is no use when you drive fast at dry and slow during wet... second is the comfort and noise... then again if you choose directional tires it tends to make more noise... just like the V12 (i just swap over to my SEG)... so i'm eager to try non-directional tires that give you ample of grip and perform well in wet...
I'm going to Hin Leong at Jln Kapar mostly... might go to another shop in PJ Seapark also...
haven decide yet...

bro for Alignment and Balancing u look for bro CheeAnn... his side is famous for that... contact him for booking if not need to wait oh... my fren waited for about 3 hours just for rotation, balancing and alignment...

bro in wet condition... not dry... try it with raining heavily... usual tire will give you some hydroplaning effect... well if you are not that sensitive enough to feel tat dangerous phenomenal then i got nothing to say so... but u should not compare a new tire with a 50% wear off tire... PP2 50% wear already still give you the grip that u want in wet... Hankook V12 i can say good in wet but the hydroplaning resistance is still not as good as PP2 even GSD-3 is not that good but it is very close... but in the wet corners those directional tires stand out to be better... of course PP2 is not far behind... in TireRack they tested the twin siblings of PP2, PE2 with Yokohama S Drive, Bridgestone RE760 Sport (RE001 twins); well it beats S Drive and RE076 in overall performance, especially in wet where Michelin old skool thread also give ppl great surprises...

well they are quite good comparable with some of the directional tires... if you want really good grip then u need to look for Goodyear GSD-3 that is max tire if not mistaken with the size of 195/55 R15... it give you good G's in the corner no matter wet or dry... of course u need to bare with the noise it created and also the lost of comfort also...
ur screen is hit by a stone, from the car in front lo... my Vios has the same crack also although it is not growing...

yea this saturday can have a TT near PJ Seapark??? if like that i change my tire there lo...

then fix a place lo... 11am where???
Mostly i'll be changing my tires at a shop just behind the Sunrise Roasted Duck...

So sad I wont be able to join, still my car not been delivered. you guys proceed and let me know the details etc. cheers.

PS3 is to beat RE001?

hi guys, want to ask, normally vios comes with what default tyres?

Guys, need some help here. I have Vios 08 G type and has been fiddling with the multi info display that supposed to show km/l and distance to go with the amount fuel left.
but I only get Odo, Trip A and Trip B whereas in the manual book it says that we can display the additional info like I've mentioned above

Or does the feature to display km/l and distance to go exclusive only to S type? Hm..

Anybody here supercharge 1NZFE before? I'm thinking of getting another manual J and supercharge it. Esp this new one because it has DbW.
p/s: then my house would have 3 Vios dugong.   Haha.

+1... same as bro vios2002 said... prepare for some cash to do this mod...

i would like to apologize to Bro Travis and Vios2002, I'm sorry for the FFK...
just now i need to go to other place coz my fren give me a call in the morning and he need my help... my tire installation is done within 30 minutes  after i arrive as there is not much customer there...

again I'm sorry for the FFK... but would like to Organise for a TT for our fellow members here on next Friday around 8pm at PJ SS3 Syed Bistro... anyone???
