Anyone knows the proper way of breaking in the engine for Honda cars? Some says after 1st service, hard rev it and speed it. Some defend saying that to do that before 1st service. Sifus?

That was my previous car which was total loss already.. Now can't put HID's as police will stop u straight away compared to last time..
Actually planning to mod into Audi type of LED headlight, but scared will void warranty. Any idea?

i've driven NHC... comparing to my VTEC 08... NHC is like struggling in the 1st and 2nd gear... low end torque quite poor and the engine really loud for some reason... torque picks up only after 3rd gear... what amazes me is the highway cruising at 120km/h, rpm is round 2k only... respect sweat.gif

That's why a lot of my friends driving the NHC starts with D3 gear (S Spec) and switch to ''D'' around 50km/h. Comments?

yup NHC good highway cruiser, at 120km/h my rpm 2.5k la.
120km/h i think is the best speed to cruise coz at 140km/h rpm hit 3k and engine start to scream.

btw for s spec owner info, the goodyear gt3 tyres not really good. might skid if u push slightly hard when cornering although the car body roll was at minimal.
if can pls trade in while ur car mileage still under 1k, or pump pressure 200-205kpa to ur tyres.

Pump all 4 tyre 200-205kpa?

My old 4G just changed into Continental tyre today. RM165 nett. Heard that the noise friction can be reduced. Planned to trade in the goodyear gt3 tyer and change in continental to my NHC as well. Anyone can show the performance chart of both tyre?

if u want to upgrade goodyear gt3 to continental cc1 not worth it coz u need to top $$$ for slightly better grip only as cc1 just normal family car tyres. last time i survey gt3 trade in only worth 70-80 per piece.
better to upgrade to michelin XM1(very durable, grip good) or bridgestone pp2(very good grip). premacy lc looks good but no size.
as very limited choice for 185/55or65/15 tyres.

btw any s spec NHC upgrade to 195 size but still using stock rims ??

do you mind stating the price for XM1 and PP2? CC1 is around RM165/piece right? Did I get ''chopped'', mate? Planned to get rid of the stock tyres as soon as my car arrive. And want to get the side ''CITY plated ''doorstep.

Guessed to be on the safe side, will do all the ''CITY plated'' mod after a year.

My SA is pissed me off toady. Tomorrow is the day I'm suppose to go choose my number at JPJ. Just now she called saying that it's better for me to choose next month as the car might delay for another month. vmad.gif vmad.gif vmad.gif mad.gif mad.gif
USJ Service Centre is getting worst and worst. Even aunty who don't know anything can be a SA. And I'm serious when I asked her about CVT GB etc. She couldn't even answer properly.

Hearing so many people with problems on their NHC really scares me. Hopefully everything will be fine on my side. *cross fingers*
What engine problem the 3S encountered?

Polish Metal Metallic. Without modulu kit. planned to tint the front 30% and the side and rear 50%. But dunno if vKool got that type of tinting and good tolerance of ultraviolet a not. Don't want it to get hot easily.

There's no direct link from the net where I can see the product status (ie: ultraviolet etc)?

Btw, anyone know the procedure for choosing the number? Everyone gets to choose it at the same time, or everyone take a number and take turn? Anyone mind stating the procedure.

Urgent enquiry.

I just heard from my SA saying that vKool elite is a specific model, meaning I cannot choose the tinting % visibility of it. Is it true? I thought vKool Elite still can choose %? THANKS!

Got the car today. At first both the power mirror can't be adjusted via the electrical remote. Got a bit frustrated at first, but the problem was solved. A loosen socket.

Asked my SA regarding the coating, but to no avail. Why is the communication of notice not transferred properly. I think I should personally file a complain to Honda Malaysia. It's already a bit rusting sad.gif

Very nice ride there. Love the chinese word in front of the bumper. Unique.

Well, Honda Malaysia replied asking for more details

1) Purchaser's full name
2) Car reg. no.
3) Car model
4) Purchasing dealer
5) Preferred service centre
6) Has this been reported to your purchasing dealer?

So those that still haven't get your problems solved, do use it as your references.

Editted: thinking to change the original number plate font to something smaller. Any advice where? BestFeel only?
