maybe with the new Vios (the facelift version) they strike a new deal with Bridgestone to supply the 15" tyres... again i'm just guessing... since mine is the newly launcehd vios J (with dual AB etc)... since this is the first time that Vios J get a 15" aloy sport rims..

again i'm just guessing...

The net have two holes at both ends that you can twist around 2 plastic clip at the bonet.
I removed mine since not using it that much.

Goodyear NCT 5 is the tyre for previous J and E spec. Now due to the facelift, all change to bridgestone. I am using Goodyear NCT 5 actually, so far so good.

Dear all, my Vios 2010 feel very floaty when cornering (especially driving through the Karak highway), any idea which bar I should install, how many mm, get from where, how much? Need opinion, thanks.

i think bar only give u better handling only but for floaty, use wide tyre n lowered spring....

pls someone correct me if i'm wrong

RM76500 IIRC no discount given since its a "new" facelift model..... but ifrom what i heard.. they running a Raya promo now... should have some discount to it.. downpayment rebate.. have no idea what that mean and how much..

kuman

Yeah. Think will get the bar to improve the handling first, then only goes for tyres.

If u dont want floaty but comfort that's kinda hard.. Stable while high speed need siffer suspension setup..
Sport spring maybe lower a bit ur ride but sacrifice a bit ur comfort, scared during highspeed not comfort at all

Added on July 20, 2012, 12:13 pmThe absorber setup that comfort n ride steadily last time felt in my wira using titan adjustable.. Thinking install to my vios but scared my wife n baby not comfort, price kinda expensive but u get wht u pay...

yes lower your ride and have a better handling but when few passenger ride together the feel is from good to worse as car become too low....

for titan on vios you can check my previous post if will be abit hard but not as hard other brand in the market... for rear suspension you can use stock spring with titan shock to reduce the stiffness.

damn full tanks ron97 : rm85......i update later ron 97 more saving or not...? hahahaha

update : rm85 = 32.50 liter
balance 4 bar from putrajaya to kedah...

maybe you can explore on Stiffrings first cos UR bars you need a few...
first will be the rear ARB either 16mm or 19mm... you can go for the others later
i'm on 16mm but i don't think its enough... depends on your driving style also...

yeah me too...i think 16mm is not enough...just go 19mm, if have extra $, put front bar also....than u handling supperrb...hu3

have asked a quotation for LOCKTECH, and the salesperson quoted me this:



got so expensive one meh?

So far my best mileage achieved was 680km on a full tank

You have to be really light footed on the pedal, with minimal load on 90% highway. My car:

2010 manual std no mod.

did highway run during weekend (Alor Star to Ipoh to Kulim), 6.9L/100km .... 1st time get this low FC.... highway not fuel saving style (tekan abit more) at all also. 110~150km/h avg 130km/h...

Hmmm.. maybe I need change the driving speed already. !

just maintain below 3K RPM like me...hehehe but isit normal when 120KM/J, RPM around 3K....i thought it should be below than that

I think is normal since when i drive at 120km/h, RPM almost reach 3K (tested last weekend).

Currently im trying to maintain below 3K RPM too.

1.6?

??? 160km/h or cc 1.6..??
