1.8M
3k rpm = 100 kmh

thanx a bunch bro for the heads up. i know sumthin's fishy when they changed the offer after i booked. i questioned them many things and finally managed to get the initial offer.
now waiting for the process n the car would be in my porch on friday

Something funny today....it's raining this morning...some water on my rear window....i tried to look for rear screen wiper...look and look...CANNOT FIND....horror...how come this car don't have rear screen wiper!!! Even my old Myvi and Savvy has!!

Then it struck me...this is a sedan, not a hatchback...my last 3 cars all hatchback....a quick look around shows all sedan no rear wipers wan...HAHAHAHA!!!

car paint got chipped off at the bonet

many tiny holes around...should i leave it or need to touch up?

just eye sore. if want to prevent stone chips, dont drive.

chipped paint small matter lar...last time my old Kia Sephia like tin milo, no kidding, all the stones kena, then got kedut-kedut at the side...if you can still see a Sephia around, i can guarantee 100% all of them kedut-kedut at both sides at the lower side of the doors kena chipped by stones!!!

Sure low rpm lo bro... We got 6 gear ma, it may be virtual but yet if goes 6 gear then rpm sure lower lo...

On highway is good, city will suck. 8km/l - 9km/l in a 100% jam city drive. But maybe my engine haven't break in enough..(only 1K++ km)...also still testing different fuels...Petronas seems to suck...haven't try other's yet.

What fuel you guys think is best for the Inspira?

But i really like the low RPM at 110km/h-120km/h....engine quiet and smooth....my friend Altis 1.8 110km/h also 3K RPM.... ..so the Inspira 1.8 is same like Altis 1.8 also. It's more the engine rather than the gear i think. 2.0 more power output gua.

Just want a smooth drive and quiet car.

wah at city 100% jam only eat 8 or 9 liter or fuel ?

sure bo ?

Yes, calculated before (manual calculation, not relying on the dashboard info). I commute daily from BU (next to One Utama)->PJ Damansara Jaya-->TTDI ...these are massive jam areas, avg speed maybe 40 km/h...tons of stop and go. Sometimes geram, then vroom vroom for 10m when there is short opening to waste fuel and not getting anywhere.

Bro, not 8 or 9 litre of fuel... Read lar 8km/l - 9km/l!!!!

huh? there's not 6 gears bro for 1.8 cvt. 1.8cvt is just a stepless gears, or in other word, unlimited gears.

6 virtual gear is only available on 2.0p when sports mode is switched.

sorry sorry miss look kekekekek.....


herm... ok thanks for the information..

1.8cvt also got sport mode lar...No paddles shift only. Still can use the gear stick.

Mine is 3K something rpm for 110kmh. 1.8 manual stock. If 3.5K already reach 120 kmh

guys,

i am planning on installing:

1. Front anti rollbar
2. Rear anti rollbar
3. Strutbar

I have checked with my Service center and they support me to do so.

My only question now is that does the inspira have front anti roll bars. My brother said the inspira has front anti roll bars. If yes, what is the difference with ultra racing's anti roll bar?

I'm planning on installing mid of June 2011.

front i am unsure, but inspira already have rear anti roll bar. original is 16mm as mentioned by some of our bros here, whereas UR rear anti roll is 23mm, which is thicker.

city use, 9-10km/l

highway, can go up to 15km/l

manual's rpm might be high, but there is less power loss as compared to the torque converter of the CVT.(our cvt has a torque converter)

Thicker antiroll bars does not mean better. Yes, car don't roll that much but it has to work hand in hand with the spring. Inspira springs are soft, so if roll bar too stiff, the chances of other wheel lifting is more often; which also means less grip during corners and too much weight on one side = flipping over. Even in rally, they do no put the stiffest bar they can find, it depends on the track and the dampers used. Inspira was tuned for msian bumpy roads and unpredictable corners.

Inspira body rolls a lot but almost impossible to lose its tail. A stiffer setup means more sliding around until u put on more grippy tires. So you either do the whole works or don't start. Lancer had a stiffer setup but it loses its tail quite often and oversteers; this is something proton improved on but most drivers do not understand and start changing to stiffer setup like lancer. This is what proton meant when they say they made the car's handling better.

The ride is yours, so you decide.
