I budak baru belajar la.. Hehe.. Always love turbodiesel !!

Lama x jumpe lio.. How's with ur 350z rim d? Going down to 18inch liao?

My Rover is fitted with Pierburgh MAF, controlled by Synergy 2 tuning kit.
After decat the noise is hardly noticeable la.. For me like same oni..

Banyak terror punya info victor

So far I just drive to kota bharu with the new 18' rim and 265/60/18 tyres. Journey feels a bit more stiff compare to usual. And some slight pick up lost (10% maybe?) not really a big difference, something I can live with but one 4x4 hardcore uncle in Kuantan said I should invest in my absorber. To make my triton more stable. Should I consider adding adjust stable into my triton? (saw kaki motor in kl offering rm988 for an adjust stable, need to survey more.. Racun more )

About the vector tuning kit to overcome the acceleration lost, not sure if want to install or not XD worried might consume more fuel for the extra power and shorten my engine's lifespan? Since the engine is the same, to have more power, it has to perform above optimum and consume more fuels?

Stock Triton have the tendency to be tail happy and yes u should invest a full set of shocks and a rear stabilizer at the axle to counter this problem. Bigger rims can always do later.

I'm on standard shocks and rear stabilizer with 300kg of tools at the rear trunk bed all the time. So far, quite stabile unless u hit a puddle at 80kph.

but as at Europe, diesel is a cleaner engine compare petrol engine u know..

Wont shorter engine lifespan la.. Tuning kit is build to increase power while giving best FC compare to stock. (but not the highest setting la, the lowest setting gives alot better FC while giving u more power than stock) But u can't resists la once u fitted a tuning kit, sure tekan habis most of the time... Now i'm on highest setting, cant hold the urge to floor it !!! hahahahaha

I'm doing exactly the same... weld a big steel right behind the rear guard there giving more traction to the rear wheels... else it will be wheel spun everywhere

Green engine it is.... As what it wrote on our registration card. Nowadays diesel engine = alot cleaner, unless those old junk tech diesel.

dont use tayar nipis la for 4wd.siyesly ugly.i know its not like u go off road or what but use 4wd rim more stylo la

Rofl.victor you own a workshop? Or you get your tuning from accessories shop? =D

Guys, need some information to get my mind clear..

I'm driving a Wira 1.5 A/T..using standard 13" JRD rims..
But I wanted to change to light weight 15" rims which at 4.9kg..so the 15" rims will heavier than my 13" JRD rims?how about with tyres? I don't want to lost my pick up power..but need more handling..

Please guide me and correct me if there is any wrong mind set..

your car power is still the same no matter what rim you use.
but slower acceleration la if bigger sport rim.

I mean I want to remain the same acceleration but I need bigger size of rims..

Only option is to opt for larger turbo and full engine management like they did in Thailand where 50% of the Tritons sold are 3.2L. Even then also, they mod to the max with some getting 600hp.

A friend of mine distribute tuning kit

I have a workshop, i install myself, i enjoy doing myself..

Actually what the tuning kit do?

Increase power and torque. Smoother acceleration, helps getting better FC.

Basic tuning kit interfere with common-rail sensor, MAF sensor, 5 fixed setting to let you choose according to your need (there's a switch on the box there)

Higher end tuning kit interfere with common-rail sensor, MAF sensor, eliminate boost cut, can custom tune it.

How does it look like? install at which part?

Sorry for asking noob question, but I really dont know it
