UR-LA4-507 is front lower bar. Maybe the term I use is wrong? Not ARB, just front lower bar?

Got dyno? Any significant increase in power graph?

nah, no dyno. I also didn't remove CC also. Significant? Doubt much.

But if use with K&N air filter, as a whole, makes a tad bit better.

CC? I'm sure it sounded more aggresive during acceleration. Stock muffler is just.... errrmm.. HAHA!

removing catalytic converter makes much difference.

It depends on your driving style and whether you drive is city more or highway more. Many factors influence fuel consumption.

Oh yeah, if you talk about minor stuff like alarms and boot release mechanism those can be modified easily...
Although City is SOHC but it makes more /same power than some other DOHC out there
I agreed that i can't stand the looks of Dugong too  tongue.gif

By the way, had anyone changed their brake pads?
I went for Ferodo Zero as replacement of stock... still bedding them in
Any comments about these? or please recommend if any of you guys using any good performance pads out there icon_question.gif

FYI: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/903569

I replaced mine with PumaTec 500 Ceramic.

Bro, I've seen that link already
That fella got an imitated one, mine has a groove in the middle
Quite bite even when cold compared to stock, don't need to step pedal for long time smile.gif

How much the cost for Pumatec?
Does it "eat" the rotor?
*
It's ceramic, so doesn't wear out rotors that easily.

But one annoying thing i get with these pads is that when I brake during slow speed <20 km/h to zero, the brakes are noisy. But from high speeds to zero, quiet.

Before changing the pads, I also skimmed my discs.

I got mine for IIRC it's RM300 for my front pair.

Ooo I see .. I will change the KNN then.. smile.gif ..

Wah, stock spark plugs are NGK iridiums? No point getting other iridium right? But how much need to pay to change at SC? If more than outside, better get from the outside..

I am due for 20k km service .. I guess spark plugs need to be replaces.. correct? .. wink.gif ..

Should go for Denso Iridium Racing 0.4mm.

everytime i pump full tank, Rm60 and sometimes i get 300km++, and cant never reach 350km per full tank.....

kevin23, usually u r driving long distance or most of the time stuck in traffic jam??
*
Stuck in traffic jam will not improve mileage, in fact worsen. Cause you always accelerate and brake.

Those who drive long distance, highway a lot, don't floor all the time, keep rpm at 2-3.5k rpm

sure can get better mileage.

Okay, for your information i also mostly drive with my gf only or alone
and i floor the pedal most of the time, revving 1st and 2nd gear to 6k rpm and the rest to 4k rpm
Mostly stop and go traffic city drive, and some curvy mountain road drive and overtaking, little hill climbing
For Rm60 and about 30 litres of fuel i could ran about 320km

I'm pretty sure if i drive casually i could get 380~400km for 30 litres, I've tried before  laugh.gif 

An alternative solution would be to change your rims to lighter 15" and pair with 205/50/R15 tyres
you will feel better acceleration/braking along with better fuel consumption  brows.gif

I'm getting about 320KM with 32liters on my 17" 205/45/R17 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tyres. I'm a very heavy footer in D and I do not shift until about 6K in S mode.

No point arguing. Just enjoy the ride. if not happy with current ride, go change to a better ride if got $$.

Arguments are arguments, if one is not satisfied that he's "won" the debate, he will go on and on, rounds and rounds.... to prove the slightest insignificant point.

Sometimes it's clear who's the fanboy. The one who uses the word more or the one who's just not bothered about it.

bro calvin, I wasn't arguing about anything...
I join the forum to share opinions just like everybody else
I also expect to learn more about my ride and get more information from different people too
One similiar car but there can be so many different drivers
Sharing modification infos and driving experience would be a good practise, isn't this what a forum is all about? smile.gif

I understand where you are coming from. But forums being forums, some take it quite seriously when discussing about something that he/she is really familiar with...

Then you should look straight and no where else, not even the VSP display.

Tested, it works as described by ZeneticX.
