Added on September 11, 2011, 1:27 pmBtw guys.. Must drive safe up genting.. Yesterday it was VERY misty with near zero visibility, and we saw a Myvi spinout on the way up.. Saw quite a lot of accidents yesterday.. on MRR2 saw a Kelisa spin out and hit divider at the corner to Bandar Tasik Selatan.. Then OTW to genting saw this Kia Spectra (or Sephia) crash at Karak highway.. From the damages it's very likely the car 'flew' down from the opposite direction of the highway.. And on the way down saw a Mitsubishi Storm got stuck on the metal railing/divider..
*
Yup. yesterday at Genting is very dangerous especially when heavy rain start puring around 4.30.

Around 5pm+, my friend in front of me also spin at genting yesterday. Then when near kaki bukit, another Waja spin at opposite direction.

I rolled down Genting straight after the rain stopped.

Visibility is around 10-15m at peak. After the temple hairpin, it gets way better but road is slippery.

Nice.. thumbup.gif Btw have u checked the service intervals/pricing for ur car? If I'm not mistaken CVT service cost a bit more rite? hmm.gif
*
don't know. The service interval proton till now also dint reply me yet. WHen first service I want straight go Shah Alam to clarify everything already. Currently clocking around 34x km.

QUOTE(shelby_yong @ Sep 11 2011, 02:10 PM)
petrol jimat ma?? 110 km/h... the rpm is how much?? ada power (KIT) ma?
*
some member at saga thread records 100km/h @ 2400 rpm.

mine, slightly above 2,500rpm because I have a lead foot.

All I can say is, it is good for highway, acceptable for city drive and horrible for touge.

no rogol la.....haha... how ur city driving .. like normal cruising. i saw the video from paultan.. like no power de
*
that paultan when test that car pijak so much throttle, thats why rpm jump very high.

Furthermore, a lot people thinks that high rpm is co-related with high speed due to the nature of conventional auto/manual transmission cars, but that's not the case for CVT.

SAT is simulate to 6 gear lo..its helping to improve pick up?ya,u come join us TT la..v r interested to knw power of saga CVT..maybe u can tapau all of us oh rclxms.gif
*
on straits, not much effect. Just to make ur eyes to "lie" to your brain indicating that your car is building up speed at low rpm. But on hills, the SAT will just stay on high rpm, which is useful in order to achieve peak torque.

cant tapau la. You guys punya persona also has more power and coupled with the AT gearbox which loves to drop gear whenever the throttle was nailed, dont think can smoke. haha

afterward like those BLM Club members, first say convoy then when reach kaki bukit, sumua jadi hantu. lol

QUOTE(xandras @ Sep 11 2011, 02:54 PM)
The AT gearbox in persona suffers from heavy transmission lost, the heaviest I've seen in any auto cars to date. Torque wise it's fine. AT Persona makes around 110 HP on crank, but only down to 75 on wheel. That's about 30+% transmission loss. As a benchmark to compare with, the manual Persona makes around ~90 plus WHP, can't remember the exact figure but it's around there.
*
hmm.gif that bad eeh.

I'll meet you guys at sri rampai. But I wont be going to genting with you guys, sorry eh. Mind if I bring another BLM along? tongue.gif

beam suspension can never be more superior than multilink suspension.

My housemate also using BLM.. His FC quite on the high side for a 1.3 car.. And the handling like sampan.. But its Lotus handling..  doh.gif
*
If compared with you guys de more superior PE, of coz sampan lo.

But if want compare with other beam suspension cars like the lagi best and that lagi best older generation, I am sure both of them lagi sampan.

QUOTE(jasonloh7906 @ Sep 11 2011, 04:02 PM)
maybe lotus handling on saga is designed for sampan?? XD
*
That's the limitation of beam suspension. Nothing much can be done to further improve the handling without sacrificing the ride comfort.

Right now I am saving $ for front strut bar and other handling enhancements. icon_idea.gif

Had a great journey back home... brows.gif
Bumped into the proton plaster car and an Exora without CPS badge at Tapah R&R.
Thought of wanna convoy with them then i fast fast hop into my car after doing my thing. mana tau they stop their car at the roadside, maybe waiting for the exora. So i purposely drive slowly hope they'll catch up soon... then damn sien waiting, all of a sudden they pass me by... haha... so i convoyed with them till they stop at Sg Buloh R&R.

Listen from the exhaust sound of the plaster car,seems like got a dragon in there. When it accelerate at 100kmh above,the exhaust sounds like got turbo in there. brows.gif
