Halo, I'm new here. Nice to meet you all~ Can I join this club? I drive a 2004 LMST n-line.
Live in Kuching Sarawak. Currently the only mod I've done is installing a Pivot Megaraizin (purple) VS This post has been edited by Lowenkreuz: Apr 20 2011, 07:18 PM |

Haha. Long time already kena poison lah. Oh yeah, I found a UK spec 4G15. That iswara is owned by my friend who uses it as a temporary car, and he agreed to sell it to me when he no longer need it.
Is the ECU of UK spec 4G15 made by siemens? Cuz I heard siemens ecu cannot be tuned... This post has been edited by Lowenkreuz: Apr 21 2011, 12:24 AM |

wow. thanks sifu. But now me no money yet lah. Still a uni student. But since that guy is a friend of mine, and he agreed to hold on to it then sell me once i got enough, so i think its ok lah. Thanks sifu for clarifying.
 But, what I'm planning to do is to plonk that 4G15 unit into my LMST actually.  |

hehe... just my plan lah... but need wait dunno how long. T_T
so now can only do some simple mods lor. Should I mod my 4G13 abit now? But I dun wan waste unnecessary money la, as i scare the mods of my current 4G13 carb is not compatible with my that 4G15 UK spec.... (or it is compatible  )Or maybe I just go change my brake hose to those braided ones first. Pro-ride quoted me about RM500 include installation + brake fluid bleeding/topping with DOT4. I'm open to suggestions This post has been edited by Lowenkreuz: Apr 21 2011, 09:37 AM |

So all those sport springs/absorbers offered for our car at around same price range perform about the same?
Actually how good the suspension don't really matter. The most important thing is the reliability of the parts and most of all, driver skill. If skill noob like me, drive what F1 car with the ultimate suspension will oso will masuk longkang.  Sorry if i offend anyone... Just voicing out my humble opinion.  |

The carbon case serve as a small airbox/heat sheild and inside it is a con shape filter. inside the carbon case is a swirl design to charge air in. wow, just as cool as I've imagined! I think i will go for this when my 4G15-UK has been plonk in. |
