Settled, it was high pressure fuel paip which connected between manifold and fuel filter.
Got one from chop shop, it's junk for them but still cost me RM30

yeah....price hiking from time to time.... but now need to do some research about 4g9x head..is there any different from 91,92 & 93.

E3 side skirt PU....and looks sexy...hhe

good luck in finding 92, almost non existence. 93 will fits nicely. 91 actually is smaller, bore only 76mm vs 92 & 93 at 81mm (IINM). 91 can still be used, but need to ports the head to match our 92 block.

If you yearn the power and your friend can be trusted to tell the truth about the car condition, why not. Better to buy from friend that you know how he maintain the car rather than from complete stranger.

yalor... in Penang island got 4~5 touge... Relau, Balik Pulau, Teluk Bahang, Batu Ferringhi, Tg Bungah... all also my favourite track  tongue.gif
I am quite confuse with the high cams lor, so far my engine still tip-top condition. I asked 2 of the garage here that got dynometer, their sifu told me high cams will give me rougher idling and the power gain more on high-end and might suffer a bit from low-end torque  unsure.gif
Also the price for a billet cams, I need do extra saving for that if needed.

As for the A-FPR thingy, issit advisable to get one?  hmm.gif

no need to use FPR loh...heard many case car burn out because FPR faulty
i used to had FPR before in my car...but removed after a while using it
because feel no different, and also my car near to burn...oil pressure leak
into spark plug coil unit....my luck manage to extinguished it...dangg scary

but i knew some people that put FPR and dyno tuning, got better hp and on daily usage save fuel. hmm.gif

FPR tuning my opinion better to get tuner that have wideband sensor. Running rich you can feel your FC become worse, if running lean then how? See if engine explode then only know running lean? tongue.gif

Ya, better find original FPR, imitation one build quality cannot be trusted..

labour only around RM200, rest depends need to change how many parts. prepare around 500 - 1k would be safe bets.

shop normally would say 2 days for top overhaul.

Wow,dat's is quite an amount,thx for d info bro,will do a survey on monday den,thx for d info though. Btw,another noob question,how long it can tahan until next overhaul? Scare wait later 3 months or half year it come back again.
*
if use good quality oil and change according to mileage/time, not always rev to redline, few years also no problem.

when doing top overhaul, better to change all others small things coz if those things fail, then you have to redo top overhaul again.

height & soft/hard should be depends on your taste. whether you like your ride to be hard or soft, and how low/high you like your ride.

camber need tyre shop to do? normally is -0.5 if not mistaken.

Hai All,

My temperature level still above the middle bar sometimes.
Already check the radiator, it is fine. No corrosion, no leak.
I almost change the radiator.

Some people say check the thermostat. What is actually thermostat do? AFAIK, thermostat is a sensor for automate the radiator fan? am i WRONG? hehehe

one else can be diagnosed as the caused of my problems??
*
checked the fan already? sometimes fan that almost kaput will still spin but slow hence it cannot cool down the water fast enough. is the above middle bar happen only when car moving slow or above 80km/h also like that?

you maybe need check the water flow is it flowing fast or slow. if slow maybe your thermostat jammed already, or your water pump got problem.

then there's the water temp sensor, maybe it's faulty or dirty thats why it show higher temp.

Hai bro,

The temperature is going up above the middle bar if the car moving above 80km/h. and it is going faster to one bar below the red bar if I use aircond while driving above 80km/h.

So, If you were in my position, what first you will check?
I plan to go to thermostat first..because it is the cheapest one than the others.
*

means not fan problem already.

you can check the water flow 1st. start your engine and let it running till the fan start spinning. take out the one end of big hose that connect from your engine to your radiator, the top hose not bottom, preferably take out at the radiator there. open your radiator cap, feed with hose of running water. see the water flow that come out is a lot or very little. if little that mean somewhere have clogged the water flow.

next, you can try take out the thermostat and repeat above steps, if water still very little means got other place clogged up. maybe the radiator clogged up, maybe the water pump not working or maybe inside the block is clogged up.

btw, do you have to constantly top up water at the reservoir tank?

if thermostat jam then the radiotor hose will become bloated or might explode.

when engine is cold. Open up the radiotor cap and start the engine. Monitor the water flow. When cold u wont be seeing much water flowing. After engine warm up awhile, the thermostat should open and u should be able to see the water flowing in one direction.
Try to rev the engine a bit and monitor if the water is suck down to the tank and flows faster or not.
*
will explode meh? last time mine jammed up partially i think, water flow very little. hmm.gif

dunno can check at the radiator cap, i always take out the big hose, coz also flush the water inside. tongue.gif
but is it can see clearly if the water flow fast or not?
