Shrug. The Serdang Honda where I test drove the CRZ told me the Auto will come with touch screen HU.

Sports mode is the -only- way to drive the car... I switched to Econs mode and nearly fell asleep...
So if econs mode save petrol then it shouldnt be a selling point... maybe if I let my granny drive she will be able to accept econs mode

No problem de. Just change back when u need to claim something.

Ahhh ok ok that explains it!

Yea hybrid-petrol saving is definitely a selling point.... hmmm, maybe I should go test drive and feel it out myself

Um... well I have to clarify, maybe CRZ is not that bad power wise in Standard mode... but I went there driving a slightly more powerful car so the comparison was bad. Then again, switchign from Econs to PWR mode.. (skipping the standard) you can really FEEL the difference.

why u drove 3.5 liter car there la

I was contemplating between getting the AUTO or MANUAL... years of driving my B16B (M) makes me wish for an AUTO.. LOL

If AUTO CRZ comes with 2Din HU with Reverse Camera, I'll take the AUTO in a heartbeat. Taking Manual if the price increase doesn't justify only a change of Transmission without any changes in interior or etc......

Really? Then that would be a +1 since ill be changin to a touchscreen anyway. Now easier for installing camera. Not putting any hopes though, all sanin penang said no difference in specs. Hopefully they come with sunroof too

Damn u stalker go away! shoo shoo!

My milage still <1000km. Should I try not to go > 4000 rpm?

I didn't wait... depends on your love to your car...
The engine has already been revved to the max at the factory, and also at the port during delivery, probably during inspection, and also during the first 50km of its life by the salesman...

If you push it too maximum, what will be the side effect in long term? Will engine become noisy or draggy?

No, K&N actually issue a notice to all Car Manufacturer in US that their products will not void any car warranty.
In US they even bring this case to the court against those Manufacturer who void the customer car warranty.

But here in Malaysia, your service center is the one who say void or not void, court here will not bother.
So normally best practice is to consult with your service center,
or much easier like other bros here said,
change back to original when you want to claim any warranty.

after 1000km u will feel much smoother ride

i still keeping my B16A (M)..wanna go hardcore use the B, wan take girl go pak toh use the Z


yeah, nowadays new car new engine already run-in out from the factory.
but i think additional run-in in actual driving condition especially in hot humid weather in Malaysia will be necessary,
other parts like tire should also do the proper run-in to ensure it will perform its best with longest lifespan!

Kangyoon : yeah, dun feel like selling my B16B.... after so many mods, sayang lo. Hehe, getting a fresh paint job and will post for sell in every forum.

CRZ is deliciously tempting for me to mod it.... Whereas the ek need serious moolah if wanna go extreme

Seriously when you noticed you in a serious jam that will cause you jammed for over 30mins and more. Better use Econ mode. You can see the FC difference between normal and Econ by then..

hi guys, i'm new to this post and planning to get this car.
But I still prefer to wait for Auto launch 1st. lolx

In fact you might feel that the engine will be smoother and more responsive after that. The will be some excess metal bits from the block during the run in period, that is why mineral oil is recommended for at least the first 10,000km.

I've seen a few hp difference between cars that was pushed hard and cars that was "cared" when it was still new.

But of course its not recommended to be pushing your engine hard to the redline during the entire life of your car, this will definitely reduce the lifespans of your engine internal parts and most common problem due to prolong engine whacking will be missing engine oil (makan minyak hitam)

Oh, thank you for the info. Btw, what is 'mineral oil' ? Engine oil?

mineral oil is the lowest grade of engine oil, mineral oil - semi-sync and fully synthetic.

Or commonly known as "normal" engine oil.
Also if you can find those hard disk grade magnet, it would be useful to attached it to the oil filter to help attract the shaved metal bits.

lol, can snap some pics to hv a look how it looks like?

This is how it looks like
