Hey guys,

Anyone using K&N open pod filter in their M3 2.0?
Thinking of getting one but don't know whether to get the drop in or an open pod?
Any suggestions?

Auto brake trigger lock means the door will lock when you apply the brakes.

After the 1k service, FC slightly better; still have to observed.

Ride, handling, nvh very satisfactory, too bad HU not the Bose or JBL type smile.gif

How much it cost ? Where u installed the tint? Does it affect the smart tag? Thanks smile.gif

I installed mine out of town in a friend's workshop in Johor..
So happened I balik kampung, so it was quite cheap, I think..
RM1500 for everything

He left the top bit for me for my SmartTag.. Darker tint on top part which is "SmartTag safe"

Hey guys,

I just installed my Brake Trigger Lock today.
Was just wondering, whether mine is normal..

1. The brake trigger only activates before my seat belt is buckled
2. If I unlock the door to let someone out, when I depress the brake it doesn't lock anymore..
3. If I depress my brake before I start my car, the lock doesn't activate either

Pls advise guys..

From my experience.

1. The brake trigger activate with/without my seat belt is buckled.
2. It do lock back when then door close back after letting someone go down from the car.
3. i not facing the problem that you mention on number 3 question.

I think there is something wrong, better send it back to that accessories shop to re-check again.
*
I think I wasn't clear on item 3..

What I actually meant was, if I step on the brake before I start the car, the door will auto-lock..
But once I start the car, the door will unlock & the door won't auto-lock again..

Hey guys,

I'm driving a 2.0 sedan.
1 issue I have is that the steering feels quite light when I hit about 130-140km/h.
I thought the power steeing is supposed to feel heavier the faster you go?
Does anyone have that issue as well?

Btw, I've installed Ultra Racing upper & lower front bars as well as rear lower bar & the anti roll bar

Hi bro,

I kinda disagree with you.... I am not sure, but maybe that's just me... I am driving 2.0 sedan too. I feel that the steering is still quite heavy when the car is cruising above 140km/h....The handling is very good imho... If compare to Honda Civic, you will be amazed with the difference, their steering are very light sweat.gif

Any other members feel that the steering is light? hmm.gif

Btw bro, please let me know what color is your car so that I can add in the details in the owner list.

Cheers biggrin.gif

Btw, my car is White

Bro,
Based on the Top 10 list
1) Royal SHELL Dutch
2) Exxon Mobile (In Msia we name it as Esso/Mobil)
3) BHP
4) Sinopac (China Petroleum)
I was made to understand, with Shell, "Anda Boleh Pergi Lebih Jauh" but with Petronas, "Kita Tak Ke Mana-Manapun" because it ll DIRT our engine & fuel really low grade.
Bro, U know what? I purchased Sony projector & get RM120 petronas pre-paid card but I sold at RM80 for CASH & with RM80 I pump Shell. I knew this sound silly but I just DON'T want to DIRT my engine.


Added on July 8, 2012, 10:46 pm

Bro,
I understand there are so many term to represent VSC & VSC. Mazda name it as DSC which available in M3 (CBU) but not CKD
That is what I said, Bermaz removed 2 important safety features


Added on July 8, 2012, 11:14 pm

Bro,
U are driving 1.6 or 2.0?

1.6 vs 2.0
1) Engine (dif by 400cc), is it make any dif for town drive?
2) Gear Box ( 4 & 5 speed), any difference in normal town drive?
3) Auto Cruise (I don't need it at all)
4) Leather wrap gear knob & steering wheel (I am Not so keen abt this)
5) Air Cond (Manual vs Auto Dimming), what is it actually?
6) Player (single vs 6 changes), Not appreciate it bcoa I ll change to TOUCH SCREEN GPS & Reverse Camera
7) Auto wiper (weird for me)
8) Auto headlamp & Bi-Xenon (I seldom drive at night, in fact town drive not really appreciate this features)
9) Allow Rim (16' vs 17'), both ugly to me (ll modify)
10) Side Air bag (not use it, town drive)
11) Auto fold side mirror (interesting to me)
12) Paddle Shift (I REALLY LOVE THIS)
13) Road Tax Difference by RM290/year (Too bad)
14) Price diff by RM17K++ to RM18K

Benefits of 1.6
1) EZ to sell as diff by RM17k-18k compare 2.0
2) Town use (low FC) & cheap R.Tax (sound silly but fact to consider)
3) This is clearance (dif by RM6k-RM8k), new facelist only at front & rear bumper

Factors to consider for 2.0
1) Many features but only need Paddle shift & auto fold side mirror
2) New facelift come PUSH START for 2.0 & white speed meter (ll be out dated)

DNA Preve + Persona = All New Civic (ll be launch on 19/7/12)
1.8 (RM115k++)
2.0 (RM120k++)
2.0 Full Spec (push start, GPS & Reverse camera)
*
Bro, the side mirror is not auto folding.. It's just electric folding.
You still need to manually press the button to fold the mirror.
Even door brake trigger lock oso dun have.

If you want it to auto fold, you need to bring back to SC to install that feature.
Certain cars, such as Pug 308 is auto..

Any brothers here can share about these filter, especially the 2nd one link (able to increase HP up to 30)
http://knfilters.com.au/
http://www.knfilters.com/kits.htm

Nowadays, most of the conti cars build low cc (saved road tax $$$)
Example : VW Polo, Passat, Golf (1.2cc-1.8cc) but Turbo Charge
              Pug 308, 408 & even their big size bro 508, all 1.6TC
I think if 1.6 package with K&N to increase 30HP worth it?
If 2.0, it can be MPS

What say you guy?
*
K&N open pod filter only available for previous gen Mazda 3
Current gen only drop in type available.

For open pod, max increment about 10-15 HP
For drop in type, about 5HP increase my.
