today do some diy
change oil,oil filter,air filter
thermostate replacement
rear boot striker change ,
add a starter booster ,
change the gearshift rubber
then saw a nice custom bodykit saga nearby
Ei, how much for the stock gearshift rubber? This is the one place on the gearbox right?

better dont always ramp up your car like that.. your are using standard conrod bearing right? or already change to ACL or KING?
the engine oil will reduce if u always ramp up like that.. i think 160 - 170 km/h is acceptable.. but above 180 km/h u need to check regularly..
10k km OCI? Fully synthethic oil meh? fully synthethic good for top speed but will loss to semi on pickup..
Got such thing meh?

I'm very noob

wan.
Due to my noobness, I would like to clarify the below questions
1.So, what is the typical flash point of engine oil and is Fully synthetic oil having higher flash point than mineral and semi-synthetic oil?
2.Is every MIVEC are created with the same engine characteristic? Every MIVEC is optimised for mid to high speed range?
Normally at how much Pascal the stock bearing can take at specific of viscosity the lubricant is being used?
3.I couldn't find any specification on the oil change interval as suggested tht semi synthethic can last until 8,000 km neither on the packaging of the engine oil itself or the vehicle's owner's manual. What I can read on the owner's manual is tht oil change interval is 10,000kM under normal driving condition. Maybe Proton has given me the owner's manual of continental vehicle. But I've been hearing those "bawah pokok miar forman" saying, "normal oil=5000kM, semi synthetic=7500 or 8000km, and fully synthetic 10,000km". So, juz wanna clarify are those mechanic more trustable than the petroluem and lubricant engineers or those automotive engineers?
5. I'm using Castrol, did Castrol suggested the oil change interval as suggested by U? Frm where I can find it?
My car can't go 180kM/H, the picture shows less than 170kM/H.
For me, 4:3 of final drive, it's too high. Not really making sense for long distance, as such, I would prefer lower ratio but with higher torque and preferably flat torque band. So, any transmission compatible with the car with higher kM/H per 1,000 r.p.m. at 5th?
Want to go so technical for fooks ar?
Just use which one you think best for your car more than enough liao....

yes...u true....but you must know....who that saga/iswara user/owner is low income and middle.........to get OEM parts from proton is expensive and not all can afford it....cheap spare parts commonly come from taiwan/malaysia for fullfill demand than want low price......but have some branded company like Jasma n other have high quality item/parts/motor sports item for saga/iswara.....that have ciplak one...........i can afford that low price only becoz im student and no fixed income...that true....but the timing belt and other moving part i find that reliable....
Jasma branded meh???
