Just saw an insight fitted with full mugen kit... I must saw it looks ugly without lowering it and sport rims. The spoiler is definitely out IMO.

Woke up this morning and found that my rear right hand side tire is total flat! Drove slowly slowly to the petrol station very near by (<100m) and inflate the tire. Drove to the nearest tire shop for checkup. It was found that a piece of small plastic like those from broken car lamp was stuck inside. The tire was patched and it goes well for now but the worry part is it probably cannot last!! The mechanic told me that moving with a flat tire could hurt the internal "wall" .. and could probably heat up fast and go burst while traveling long distance... WORRY WORRY. How true is it?? only travel a short short distance with tire flat.. Is there any method that could check the internal tire and its durability? Will be waste for changing the tire of < 6 months old... sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

do you drive h/ways alot + speed? if you do, better be safe than sorry, and change to a new tyre. if you drive in town areas/always jam/can't go fast, then leave it lah. chances of a high speed blowout are much lesser.

Just give a call and ask if ready stock available or not. If they say yes, go and see the car and then book. You should get them within a few days provided no problems with HP. If you go and say you want a car and place a booking then I think the waiting period is about 1 month.

I got 10 leaves only and not getting anymore. It is moving between 8 to 10 leaves. Let's see after 5000km. But I don't hypermile. Maybe, after 1000km I will push above 160km/h and see the FC.

160km will eat and burn a lot of fuel no need to test u will get 16-18per L i guess

Yes.. i gor 450km for rm60. drove from meru klang to merbok, sg petani for 2 1/2 hours driving.. speed? hehehe
