Hello, Just want to ask, sometime when a little bit hard corner or when press a bit of the brakes, the front tires will have squealing sound. Is it normal or dangerous? Tire pressure for front is 225 rear 215. Btw, just change to good year eagle Nct5 1 tire only. Cost Rm240. Took this cause cheap compared to other brand rm300. But I just only know the comment that this tire has bad nvh. So far is fine. Long run don't know noisy or not.
my ori was this tyer the nvh really no good, when car deaccelerating can heare the sound like 4wd tyer, but the road gripping ability on dry or wet still consider ok lah.
Yup. My car is just 1year old. I'm so sien with my car. Before this, the air-cond fan lossen and hit on water tank ________________________________________________________________________________________
I'm from KL. Ok Thanks a lot.
This issue has mention here before few thread ago, someone said proton has issue memo to all SC to add washer at the fan bracket to avoid the fan blad hit the radiator, this is common for PE.
V12? Hankook V12? How's the grip & ride on the V12?
how about yokohama C drive 2 any comment ?

That's because of the soft compound used, that's why it absorbs the roughness well although u pumped higher pressure into the tyres. As a no-brainer reminder, be careful not to pump the tyres with pressures too high as it can be very dangerous in an event of tyre rupture.
For thread life, different drivers travel different distances on their cars. Ur 3 years may be equivalent to another driver's 1 full year of driving. It's best to judge by the distance covered rather than its' shelf life. NCT5s are notorious for their road noise, so we can leave that out.
As for the 912, what are the tyre dimensions that u've tried on the City? It matters especially where comfort & thread wear is concerned. Lower profile tyres tend to have harder sidewall, which in turn affects the handling & ride comfort as well as thread life. And yes, it also does matter where the tyre is made. Japanese Falken ZIEX ZE-912 have a better thread life compared to Thai ones (of course, Japanese ZIEX is much more expensive). Also do check with the owner regarding his wheel balancing/alignment if he's facing uneven thread wear.
Would really love to try out the V12 if I have the chance to do so in the future. So far Pirelli PZero is my favourite (I'm a performance & handling person, so anything else is pretty much out of the window for me). If u're thinking on changing only 2 tyres, then the new tyres must go to the back. Reason being that our PE have rather long & heavy overhang at the rear compared to Gen2, so in an event of hard braking, the rear will slide out more. And without thread at the back, u'd be sure to be singing this.
On a serious note, it's better to change all 4 tyres at the same time so that u'll have better grip on all ocassions at every single corner of your car. But if u can't (budget constraints, perhaps?), replace only two rear tyres and when ur front 'going to botak' tyres finally wears out, u'll eventually have to replace them as well, and this is the time where u should bring the previously 'newly' installed tyres at the back to the front, and install the 'newer' ones at the back. U understand what I mean?

is it true that it is illegal if our tyer are not using the same brand and type ? i though someone said that JPJ will summon if 4 tyer are not same.

Ur car not modified then is wat? Stock? Can replace the cover only. He's talking about the LED light pecah but the LED still working. The plastic piece is a complete separate piece from the side mirror. I've taken it apart before. Come come.. U're welcome anytime.. Sound? erm.. If everything remains stock then it will sound a bit like tin kosong because the exhaust flow is increased.. Not entirely true. When the stock extractor is removed together with the catcon, the new extractor that doesn't come with cat con have a slightly increased exhaust flow, yet the stock S-flow is not smooth & large enough to accomodate this air flow, thus causing vibrations & resonations in the midbox and causing the tin kosong noise.
but the full hotbit setup don't have the muffler ? it means the sound lagi ganas
[quote=xandras,Jul 21 2011, 02:07 PM] Whatever muffler u use wont affect ur FC. But NO muffler will affect ur FC. Zzz.. Like Zapdos said, it wont happen.. Many ppl asking us to make TT la this la that la.. In the end never come. Wait 159 first la..
Then not fun already. We can show our car already. Each of us have different persona ma got different harimau inside ma.
Yalor then thats not TT some more lor ...it was a vacation trip aldy......every time small TT also member here asking ppl to fetch them, end up no one want to attend....
i wan do the floor lo..bcoz i can heard the road noise quite clear lo..i will DIY do at wheel fender 1st..if still cant improve,then will do the floor..plan do autofoam in chassis oso

Is it? I not sure oh. my right foot quite heavy leh. LOL
cant wait to try my top speed, but now not going anywhere. So have to wait la. Persona TT is about showing your owning persona ma. Create a grand TT la. mid at some place, where everyone know. Eg. Genting, sepang.
some of our advance mod member can conquer genting road ady, genting for them is just a piece of cake, one hand hold steering also can go up, they might want to chellenge CAMERON HIGHLAND .
dun need to test top speed la..as long ur car can feel more powerful than stock then is ok..everytime i travel from semenyih to muar,on the highway i always cruising around 140-160 onli..sometimes 180 lo..bcoz i can feel my car easy from 120-160,climb very smooth lo..
thats the secret of POWERZONE don't said powerzone no good, just it was benefit at the high end.
Even if u live a decent lifestyle also ur money wont finish la.. Say u kena RM 5 mil jackpot.. And u leave it in the bank untouched.. U get like RM 10k+ interest every month.. Don't tell me RM 10k per month not enough for u to spend? More than enough for u to pay ur car loan, house loan & shopping needs d.. Ur money will never run dry..
if you got 5 mil in your account you thing you still drive local car ?....you thing you still stay at normal apartment ?....... you will own few car maybe ferra or posch and stay at bungalow, that time you never eat Maggi to save money ......lah, human fuzzy logic is when you got money you will willing to spend more aka your body ichi
