Bro, did you use glue to stick one end of the sharkfin? My sharkfin start to 'stim' already... One small end start to come up.

Glued already (several days ago) at the front tip of the sharkfin. Looks ok as of now.

-how about the FC (2.0)
-any problem encountered?
-where 2 service? Klang

-hows the ride? > Speechless..
-any prob? > Nope..just a minor rattling sound on the backseat & dashboard
-how about the FC (2.0) > FC (City)= averagely 9-11L/100km & depending on your right foot also. Highway (at 110km/h) = 6.5L/100km
-any problem encountered? > Nothing
-where 2 service? Klang > Kindly surf Nazakia website..got many in Klang Valley

go read few pages back. don't want to comments further and don't want to be blame if anything happen in the future.
do your own research before commit anything in mod.

Yupp..install it at your own risk. But we already enjoyed it at our own risk also..right bro? hehe thumbup.gif

u better now keep your ears to the engine cause its lean out the air/fuel mixture so u can get pinging very easily uphill especially if you are using ron95.
1.6 maybe ok but u have to keep an ear on 2.0 as your setup is leaner than 1.6. don't say i didnt advise ok bro.... hehehehe
*
I will do just that wink.gif Anyway..TQ for your useful advise bro. If i heard pinging (i wish u could help me to trace it using your sensitive & trained ears), maybe i'll try to tune it (the TAB) a bit lower first. If still pinging..just cabut & lelong aje whistling.gif

Did u mean whistling sound? My 2.0 got this minor whistling sound coming from the driver side mirror's hinge when driving above 90km/h (heard it when the window is down). But i just ignore it coz most of the time it was unheard coz i close the window wink.gif

But I didn't open any window,... It's exactly like I opened a lil down window, oh! how do I control d acc everytime I on it? Should I on by pressing auto or just the ac button cuz if press auto it auto changes to air flow from outside ,.... Sorry I ask stupid things but a real noob to drive such highend car.... Hahaha
*
Press AC will do. Just need to manually set other preferred settings first (outdoor/recirculate & flow mode) for once. So i left only the fan speed to be controlled automatically by the system. For me, i just press AC to on & press OFF to off the aircond after that.

hello peeps, just wanna ask how's the FC for the 2.0 unit? so far any major problems with the car?

asking coz i'm interested in getting one...

my current pitch would be either the E grade city or the 2.0 forte...not sure if this is the right place to ask but i'm just trying my luck...

btw, how's the service centers doing as in, do they really 'layan' ur problems are there's the tidak apa attitude? thx peeps
*
If u prefer bigger car + extra useful features + extra safety, go for the 2.0 Forte. If u concern more on the FC, City will give u better FC figures. But dont take my words wrongly, Forte 2.0 also offers good FC especially on highway drive which i personally clocked an average of 6.1-6.7L/100km with the average speed of 110km/h. Not to mention the extra 'kick' that i have under the hood if i need it for overtaking or whatsoever. For a 100% town driving, a figure of 9-11L/100km can be achieved depending on how bad the traffic is. The FC is comparable to most other 2.0 car in the same segment i must say.

For service centres, i've gone to 3 different Nazakia SCs as of now, so far so good & i have to say that the bill for the scheduled maintenance for Forte are lower than the City (even for the Forte 2.0), not to say the Civic which is costlier.

So, at the end of the day, it is up to u to decide based on your priorities in getting a car. It is your money & your pleasure anyway. Buy the one that u need/like, not the one that others like..wish u happy choosing bro nod.gif

Sorry for late reply.
Woo..big bonus mehh. Can belanja me drinks? hehe...
For Forte SX, i'm the first to install it last time. For EX, u can refer to bro KFC. Here's the link

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1490690/+880

As Desmond (KL Auto) said last week, he got several units of HU (improved version) in his stock, but unfortunately he still unable to get the original HU panel (front fascia) for SX as of last week. Anyway, kindly contact Desmond for any updated info on this. But for EX, he still has 1 panel left to grab. So for EX bros, siapa cepat dia dapat wink.gif bro prominen?? racun bro..racun..hehe

This is AWESOME!

Bro Iz, how much do u spend for these?
*
It should cost u not more than RM3k with the upgraded TV antenna. Kindly contact Desmond (KL Auto) to fetch the exact quotation. Mine without the upgraded TV antenna, so the price is slightly lower (TV signal reception also lower whistling.gif ). But TV is not my main concern anyway..GPS, integrated reverse camera & bluetooth phone connectivity are more useful for me..not to say it looks nice & neat in the dash thumbup.gif
