but if u total up your entire cost + your existing wira, i think not a big difference.
and for that u get a real evo chassis, not just the engine and brakes.
i read the real evo has s tronger chassis, they have more welding points to keep the chassis together.
our proton chassis, i think even weaker than a stock lancer (and Lancer cant even compare to EVO)

pai sei... i tok too much nonsense, only second to sifu Oly
go for 15" in my opinion. because 16" size, the rubbers are expensive
if u wan 16" might as well jump directly to 17", cheaper tyres

anyone got the image on a stock Wira's dyno results?
curious to see at which point before power drop.

oh thanks. no wonder i usually feel my torquey powerband so narrow la.
usually i shift right after 3.5k because i thought the power is all the way downwards after that.
perhaps my exhaust mod changed that slightly (moving it upwards?) but i can still feel the drop, so i upshift.
when i pull to 5k is usually when i hantam the pedal, so dont really pay attention to engine feedback (going for the loud sound only )
later when i drive will pay attention to what u have said, and see how is the powerband like. thanks!

clutch + gas nice to play
helps with jump starts at traffic lights and also at each gear change.
if u can control the clutch right before wheelspin, you'd get the max traction from ur tyres
but my engine cant wheelspin except for 1st gear only
anyway, maintaining the engine rpm at gear shifts alone is worth driving a MT
(but i understand la, in traffic jam no fun)

yours 4G92 wor... surely different
but thanks for showing me.
so probably for 4G15 (mine), the power also drops after 5.5k lor? can assume like that or not ah?

means for a stock engine, torque should be going downwards after 5k la?
i'll try to "feel" it later on when i drive. thanks so much for sharing the chart and ur experience.
btw, i was googling for dyno charts, then found one where the dyno an EVO with different engine oils.
turns out mobil1 is the best for torque and power.

TGIF!

i remember reading somewhere, for VTEC engines... while it CAN use lower octane fuel, it is NOT the RECOMMENDED octane for the engine.

for our engines, i wonder if there is also a recommended octane to use? perhaps its RON96

this kind of spare tyres, what are the pros n cons ah?

when u say cant use for long, do u mean
- cannot use for long distance? or
- cannot keep this tyre in the car boot for long time?
looking at the picture, these tyres need pump air or not?
seller say pcd100 with 15" size... tempted la.
coz its lightweight rite?

thanks guys. seems like gain a little in weight reduction, but the cons are so overwhelming! will give this item a pass...

actually hor, my spare tire is still the stock metal rims, 13" with high profile stock tyres. and the worst part is, it is a re-threaded tyre. i'm using it coz i dont have any other tyres as spares. currently using different tyre sizes liao. what about u guys?

first, max says cheean is GHEY, then... alvin keep asking cheean to go genting with him
very suspicious lei.... hohoho

DIY fix radiator fan? better dun play play with this.
mine last time also like that, suka-suka the fan will stop, engine temp goes up.
then if the fan works again, the temp goes down. actually the fan motor dying.
better fix/change it asap just in case. else if engine overheat... jialat...

can la, i using one side signal light imitation. cheap cheap.
but the colour is different compared to my Bosch ones nvm la, signal only, seldom both sides turn ON same time also.

those from Melaka, there's this road in front of Maktab Perempuan there.
the entire stretch of road, if u goes slightly above 60kph u can hear your tyre starting to lose grip

why change wiring ah? pls tell more details, interested.

all budak kaya playing with good rubbers

eh dont play play with kancil ok...
i never drive kancil turbo before, but should be damn powerful.
coz the chassis is very lightweight. last time i test charade turbo from friend, so i know the feeling.
lightweight chassis + powerful engine = very fun to drive car

yalor, lightweight cars feels very responsive, and thus they are really fun to drive.
actually heck, even a stock Kelisa is fun to drive. Those of u driven one before will know what i mean.
the power to weight ratio is good. if only Kelisa was released the same time as Kenari, i would have bought one.
love the design too.

DIY fix fan not hard, but if the motor needs replace, better just replace than trying to fix it lor.
last time mine, intermittent function (kejap ada, kejap takda) dangerous la.

Maktab Perempuan is near Semabok area (i think)
its near the crossroad at the store called "KeluargaKu" there.
here's the place http://ms.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institut_Perg...erempuan_Melayu

not the speed limit. coz i thk the speed limit follows city area limit.
but i mean even if u speed, u can feel ur tyres losing grip. but that road looks dry n normal, dunno why still less traction.
(or maybe its my tires? ) but only happen at this stretch of road.... haunted?

its luck la, depends which cap ayam also. some are better, some are worse than others.
anyway, wiper is a pakai-dan-buang item (wear n tear item) so after few months, throw away n get new ones.
just try lor

guys, can i spray normal paint (for metals) on the exhaust extractor?
what will happen?
