persona rulez, my rear bumper kena kissed by saga LMST, surprisingly my bracket and clip came out, not broken, maybe can fix them without changing the whole bumper. the LMST on the other hand, the left eyes like kena tumbuk, what a significant blow to it. i guess LMST got it's famous nickname 'milo tin car' without no special reasons...
Zeng, put this as testimonial to tell ppl that persona rulez the street by toughness. mine as example.
my dad until now still whining, 2 week car already so many damage, but i dont feel anything, bumper damage is negligible damage, nothing happened to the engine and main body can d. i already expected this when i buy car

Wah lao, u're seriously not taking accidents as part & parcel of owning a car, are u? Man, u might be able to ignore bumper damage but without removing the bumper u won't be able to see if there's any damage done to the metal body. Unfixed body bents/damages could lead to degradation of the integrity of the steel when it rusts. Bumper might be negligible, but please dont ignore it when the car body is involved.

Are u still in Penang?

Added on January 15, 2011, 12:22 amLet's talk about driving experience, guys...

What kind of experience do u guys love most when driving our beloved Personas? Like.. What can be done to enhance the driving passion, the environment, the mood in the car... Etc..

For me, personally.. I love to play trance tracks, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Edward Maya, etc etc, while driving on a long dark stretch of road with very little road lights & traffic.. Darn, damn emo sia... 

The same spoiler will definitely be screw on type lo..

Went to STY exhaust, 3rd mile Kuching to survey the headers GOT POISONED BIG TIME and ended up getting one. I have two choices. One, was to get the older design which is 4-2-1 also but the way the primaries meet up with the secondaries are in different config than the newer version whereby cylinder 1 and 4 shares the same secondaries and 2 and 3 cylinder shares the same secondaries and the O2 sensor is at the 3rd cylinder reading. The new version is the o2 sensor is located at the bottom end of the secondaries. Config of the new version is cylinder 3 & 4 goes into the secondary, 1 & 2 cylinder goes in the secondary. So meaning, the newer version have better flow out of the engine cylinders.......following me so far? 

So anyways.... summary is.... i got these:
1. 4-2-1 header - RM300
2. Top Cat mid box replacing the original unit. To reduce metallic noise after installing header. - RM180

Results:
Lighter engine feel. More willing to accelerate. A bit of "zingy" noise at the header which is normal. Engine sounds less stressing when accelerating (its quieter actually, less of the engine roar noise.
Pics!!!!!!

The 4-2-1 header. Design is copied from Super Street headers. The other is the midbox from Top Cat.




Before

Dismantled


I killed the CAT (catalytic converter)

updated ECU firmware to V3.9 just now
how come the buzzing sound still there, and the engine idling RPM still the same as before

like no changes at all

like midnight wangan? i felt at highway is safer than city road. i never realised penang motorist are so damn retard, especially motorcyclist. when i turn left, a motor potong me from the left and still honk me, what a retard. and also a pizza rempit, honk me from behind for no particular reasons...

what buzzing sound?? engine idling shd be around 900rpm.. It can be tuned one. .

arent u from penang?

Can hear "zing" noise that comes from the header which is normal for most aftermarket headers. The muffler (stock) at the back is slightly louder but not noticeable at all while inside driving.

If you are observant enough, the 4-2 join config is different from brands like Hotbits and Powerzone.

long story mate, the fella wanna cross to right lane, and suddenly the car in front of me braked, so of course we must brake(my dad was driving that time), and he didnt see that we brake, so ma kiss dao lo. in fact, the incident happened at jalan duta, that day is raining. if emergency brake while crusing high speed, i might be partially responsible(but in truth, none at all, cos i had to brake due to the car in front brake, so the mofo in front is responsible), but the fact is we're stucking in this goddamn famous product of kl, traffic flavoured jam, which our cruising speed would less than 20km/h!

i also very kek sam la, i can sleep well, but in my subconciousness i think of every single possible solution to save her, even fork out rm45, my next day meal money to repair the front bumper, which is just temp solution, and i intend to change the front and rear when the time is right.

speaking of which, i might wanna mod my car lamp to angel eye. if a car metaphored to a lady, isnt a car should have eyes like angel?

i hope this doesnt stay with persona:


this is why i dont feel optimistic abt local car:


no persona review by topgear, good or bad?

ICM relay sound

engine idling at around 900rpm though

i've been driving in kl, and i drove around penang yesterday. this is the conclusion i came to.
kl drivers are civilized but retard; pg drivers are uncivilised yet retard!

retard as in my dictionary: you know this is wrong but you still do it. isnt you're retard?

Yeah confirm.. Paparich there..
Dont worry.. We will have TT3.0.. 

i know this since the day i reach penang... haha and surprisingly people here admit....!! haha
u sounded like u r not from penang.. tat's y i asked u to reconfirm...

better within this month, cos i gonna belah d...
before i born my parents living in kl, then when my parent go visit the parent in laws, suddenly i'm so naughty and curious, cant wait to see this world.
so i was born in pg(birth cert proven), but i was raised in kl.
last time we stayed at a lot of places, tmn putra at ampang, cheras perdana, then when i was 10 yrs old we moved to pg.

pg ppl driving like hooligan, sendiri salah still point here point there. my engine stalled still yelled and swearing at me(which is surpring that kl drivers have high tolerance, understanding, and some level of limited telepathy, they know you're in trouble and they wait and see, without using honks)

i travelled thru komtar, and those bikes like daylight mat rempit, cutting lanes more daredevil than universal studio stuntmen

my ultimate plan in life is, stay in kl and marry and have 2 daughters

p.s 1 of the company i interviewed, they were impressed by my portfolio, but they want me to commit 20yrs. tolong, i dont think worth to invest quarter of my life into something that uncertain.

this is not the 1st time i heard this kind of question.

tak sabar sabar     
some even honk at u, overtake u , then drive slow and hog to right line   
but i enjoyed driving on pg road especially after midnight

hahaha.. there's too much wan to do after this year.. so all those small small damages have to wait year bonus change all to new look... now sound start coming edi.. but mine is manual, and almost 80% off-road driving.. hehehe..
