Hai.. I would like to ask something. I already got my PE h- line yesterday, when i am drving from kl to my hometown pahang, after i off the aircond there is still air coming thru from the aircond panel and didnot stop. I already checked on my engine, i notify that my fan for my car aircond already off.
It is normal that there is air coming from the aircond panel eventhough we alreay off but engine still running. I suspect that the air come from my aircond blower..
Any sifus can give advise, tq. Hihu
After u off the aircond, if theres still a little bit of air coming in thru the air vents, it's normal. Design flaw =/ But I suggest u check ur air cond stepped dials. The button to switch off ur aircond must be turned all the way to the right, not by pressing the middle button. Hope this clarifies.
Not now yet lah bro. .How much? I cant save up that much money yet so fast..
LOL. Take ur sweet time man. Just asking. Cos thinking of R3's rims. Kena poison d. Today saw a Bronze Garnet PE with Silver R3 rims. If I can get Gun Metal colour to match my BG PE sure damn chun wan.. But duno where to get, plus still no money..
Oh yeah i love the look of the R3 rims too.. But i put on Persona it looks abit small lah.. Cos persona the back part very big.. But i like the R3 rims since it has the GTR looks.. I also kena poison ady.. The cheapest i asked is Rm1.8k for 4rims.. But that also
U ASKED? I cant even find it.. LoL. At CoSE they're offering it for 3k + falken ziex tyres.. =/ not really keen on falken tho..
Zeng,saw your video on Youtube where you were driving at 190KM. How long did it took for you to reach that speed? Hows the wind noise? Wanna try but don't dare.Either afraid of speed trap or suddenly turtle crossing the road.
LoL. 190KM/H is pretty much standard for most of us 'regulars' here. But now cny la, I suggest u don't do that now.. Traffic is real bad.. To reach 190 KM/H, provided the setting is right, It should take around 30-40 secs, depending on mods, etc...
Yeah.. When i first got my PE i have big plans for mods.. But too bad the limiting factor is always my wallet.. haha.. Last time some popular tire shops in jb do carry the rims.. But now R3 they want to control the rims price.. Only those R3 authorised panel shops can sell it.. and they are selling it for 1.9k.. is 3k for rims and tires cheap? I dont know how much 16" tires cost.. Oh its very fast.. only the pull from 100-120 slightly slower, after that its just climbing steadily only.. yeah can reach it below 40secs.. Wind noise is very minimal.. I actually turned off the radio and aircon to for the 2nd run to 190.. It made no difference with radio and aircon on/off.. Car was super stable.. The run was on MIEX highway.. Its SOOOOOOOOO straight.. I can say its laser straight.. U can see at least 10km down the road.. But beware of cross winds cos at that speed with strong wind u can turtle easily.. Im aiming to go back to the highway after my 5k service to test top speed again.. Btw i ady reach 6925km now.. Still hvnt go for 2nd service.. Yeah.. 190 sap sap sui can reach.. Barely need long runway.. On kesas itself can touch 170 easily without breathing hard..
If I'm not mistaken it's 195/55/16.. Falken Ziex, if the rims are at 1.8/1.9k, 4 tyres at 1.2k = 300/pc considered ok lah.. not really overpriced.. But 195/55/16 wor.. I rather go 205/60/16.. =/
Haiz.. Thinking twice la.. But maybe not changing it la.. Gonna invest on proper ICE & minor detailings..
Me my current plans now is to change extractor and centre bullet first.. After that no performance upgrade.. More to visual upgrade like bodykit, rims, carbon fibre look here and there.. Im thinking of sticking Dinoc for my bonnet.. Will it look nice? or if there is any carbon fibre bonnet on sale on the market for around RM500?
Carbon fibre bonnet for Persona? I highly doubt so.. Around RM500 samore.. Lagi la impossible.. I think it's possible to custom make a CF hood for our Persona, but definitely have to set around RM2k aside just for it.. CF not cheap leh..
Extractor & centre bullet.. Hmm.. I also want change, but dono where & what brand.. Dun dare try Ayam Brand leh..
Cos i have seen carbon fibre bonnet for Wira selling around 450 only.. 2nd hand one.. I want to reduce the mass on the front axle.. So at least the car will be more nimble a bit.. Extractor and centre bullet can get ayam brand lah.. The last i got quote is RM620 for 4-2-1 extractor and 2 centre bullet from lyn forumer mfa_145.. Since its quite good price i will consider lah.. When i got the money then i will go consult Kweng for quote first.. See what he explains bout it.
Wira? RM450? Fibre quality or CF? A lot imitation out there lah... Real CF hood is very unlikely to be that cheap.. Unless they bring it in bulk la.. Persona's hood is really heavy, tho.. And I've lifted a GTR's CF hood before... Bloody light wei!! I can't imagine GTR's metal hood weight la.. The engine bay so long, sure damn heavy wan..
I saving now lor... See la one day I deco my car with R3 emblems.. Hahaha...
Added on January 31, 2011, 4:28 amDude, when u go to CoSE later, please go to the Showroom area & see whether the R3 division is opened or not. They just opened a new booth there for R3, some parts are already there but the other day I went there the SA said that it will only be opened in a week or two. I'm kinda interested in the R3 accessories actually..

Real CF one wor.. Not just those sprayed to look alike.. I seen it in ZTH forum b4.. Yeah i know.. Real CF is damn light.. U know those Perdana changed with CF bonnet can save 58kg of weight!! If i were to change Persona bonnet, save 40kg, buat itu catcon, save 20kg, Then lightened rims, save 16kg for 2 front rims, thats a lot of weight saved and performance gain!! FC sure improve a lot.. And if change the boot and roof to CF too.. I think Persona pickup can easily beat Vios hands down..
R3 enblem a bit ugly.. I plan to do custom airbrush.
...Boot and roof = cf... U're a very ambitious person, aren't u? CF light la.. but kinda dangerous if accident.. touchwood..
I saw someone selling CPS emblem.. PE CPS.. Soooo wanna try to stick a CPS at the back & start driving around town.. Confuse those CPS fans.. LoL
LOL.. Can tell others its Proton R3 test mule for turbo-charged CPS.. haha... Actually thinking back.. Since this persona is so good.. Might as well just go all out for mods 5years down the road.. Wanna built a serious road machine.. Get featured in hypertune.. haha..
Or custom make a CPS emblem.. CPS-T.. CPS turbocharged.. Aiyo if mod 5 years... What u gonna do with the engine lar?
Put in RB26DETT if possible.. haha.. Or evo4/5 engines.. 2JZ engines dunno how much they are going for now.. If possible i would actually like a 4B11T engine and mod it from there onwards.. semi open-deck engine with same bore and stroke.. Best for pick-up and performance too.. Then probably will join TTA matches in the future..
RB26DETT?? How to masuk la dei... JPJ sure cannot lepas wan.. Evo still possible lah..
Nah... Engine mods not really my style.. Headers & bullet maybe la.. I dun wanna go back to racing d.. Just some extra power to smoke kurang ajar ppl can d.. Eh still haven't sleep? Later help me ask R3 16 inch rims with tyres at CoSE how much... ask them for tyre sizes too, & if they offer Bridgestone..
Oh ya, I drove my father-in-law's Accord ystrday... Zzz... 100KM/h at 2k RPM.. Damn envy lor... zzzz...

Power steering assembly Driver side power window motor Disc brakes probably ( seems to work perfectly now) something wrong from my timing belt area.. U know the noisy part of my engine? It has become very worst now.. Probably due to too much power in my car..
Ur driver side I dont think it's motor problem la.. Probably bracket prob.. If motor prob ur window cant go up or down d..
Eh? u found out what's wrong with the noise d?
Yesterday night I tried starting my car, after crank 3-4 times oni can start.. Scary sia..
